They did say they'll only be conducting the interview from 27-31 July. I don't think you can really conclude if it's better to be called for interview or not because if you're called for an interview you still stand a chance at being offered a place. On the other hand, if you haven't been called for an interview it could either mean you've been given a confirmed place or rejected. So it's hard to say. Just wait for their call or email. Good luck!

hi, what is the interview about ?

What is GAT?
The General Ability Test is an academic test administered by the secondary schools during the Direct School Admission exercise in Singapore. Each school sets its own test. The purpose of the GAT is for the independent schools to screen eligible students for Direct School Admission before the PSLE examination. Successful students are offered places in top secondary schools if they passed the GAT and other related assessments and interviews. Top secondary schools like Raffles Institution , Raffles Girls School and Anglo-Chinese School Independent conduct GATs every year during the annual DSA exercise.

Last time it was about gender stereotypes and was a group discussion.

Basically, the GAT for RGS is all about patterns, and there are 60 questions for you to do in 20 minutes. Only a handful of the girls can finish it.
