Good to hear that Neko..u had experience the worries/stress that I and many other gep parents had experience before..and now that u know that your dd can cope with it well ...so u can trust her that she can cope with it well also for p5 and p6 gep la....

Yep......we jus need to keep reminding ourselves to have a little more faith in our kids........ :celebrate:

Based on this year's P6 GEPers, the 80% rule is mainly applied to P6 SA1 results using the 4 main subjects. Those with HCL will be also asked to take the CL paper for which the result is used. As far as I know the 80% is quite strictly followed for GAT at RI i.e. 79.9% also need to take GAT. In our school, all those without GAT were offered regardless of interview. All who took GAT were given waitlist except 1 offered and 1 rejected. Largely the same group who were offered at RI were offered HCI. So for all P5 parents, please tell your kids P6 SA1 is very very important for DSA.

:welcome: notsokiasu mum, and thanks for your advice.

Thanks for sharing.

According to DS, in his P4 class only about 3 pupils scored an overall of 80% and above. Is this the norm?
