:!: Wonder if this is the key to get shortlisted? for all domains?

Chill........I left like 12 or maybe even 13 questions blank and was selected for the half day selection camp

Which domain are you? GE?[/quote]no. Academic(math)

[ruyu]

Guys i beg of you what will we do at the half day selection test

[cascada]

ruyu, you’re applying under MT domain which is Tamil if I’m not wrong. Then maybe very few people will be able to tell you what to expect during the half day selection test unless they also had experience in the same MT domain as yours. If your domain is Math, maybe more people can share their experiences with you.

so what will they do during math? Math stuff?

My son is going for the RI GAT tomorrow. He’s been consistently good in all other subjects (high 80s and 90s even fullmarks in Maths) for Maths , Science and English. He’s bn getting Distinction for NSW for all 3 subjects and also won a Silver award for 2009 NMOS. He’s apply RI DSA under academic domain : Maths which is his strongest subject. He’s also strong in CCA i.e. scout leader and won scouts awards yearly. He’s also received the Edusave award yearly since P2.


But he is weak in Chinese ( got a C for P6 SA1). I wonder what are his chances.

ruyu,

no concrete info, heard for Math Domain it is Maths Olympiads style questioning, including showing the solution like say SMOPS second round...

For Languages no idea - what i gather from DD's letter is
Oral and written comm
Literary Appreciation

My word of advice- They do not want the kids to prepare which means there is nothing you can do in a week , you should be able to take an open test and succeed, that is what they are looking for. It will be in a format a good P6 student can tackle. You will be briefed b4 the test. So why worry?
Anyway if one doesnt succeed , there is still PSLE - the known devil.

So chill
And all the best.
