Need to prepare one, ah?

Not necessary. I’m kiasu that’s why was thinking to let my child have a feel of the type of papers and will not be that panicky taking the exams.

I had came across a centre at Jurong East Blk 134 3rd floor who conduct these type of courses. However, until todate I have yet to receive any call from them despite I went there personally 2x and called them 1x. Was told that the person-in-charged was out of town and will get back to me but never. That's why I am checking if other parents can tell me whereabout other centres are? :?: It may be too late now as most of the schools are conducting their exams this week.

Maybe you can just let your child work through those IQ test booklets? bc the GAT test is just patterns & puzzles. Not maths, and not stories, no vocabulary.

Not exactly. Diff schools set diff exam. They do have Maths, Sci and others.

I think you are confusing the GAT with other tests.

The GAT is solely a non-verbal abstract test of patterns/puzzles, lasting only about 1 hour.

The schools that require Eng/Math/Sci/GA are not just GAT tests. For those, the GAT is only a part of the test. These test take around 3 hours bc there are 3 papers to take.

Hi…any idea whether the chance of entering NYGH thru DSA is higher if the child is called up to be interviewed?

Of course. Has NYGH called your girl up for interview? Congrats. However, I understand that some girls from the GEP have already been offered a confirm place without the need to go for interview!
