Hi

Yes, Yes. No tuition how can? I am not sure of sec school. As for primary school. I knew 2 top GEP girls from NYPS have more then 10 tuition class per week.

Those parents who has DS/DD in NYPS GEP Class will know who I am talking about..

I really admire those top students for PSLE, O-Level and A-Level who appeared in newspaper said that they do not have any tuition at all. With good time management and teachers help they are able to achieve good result and become the top students in Singapore. Some more there was one student last year in RPS, he not only top in PSLE but also able to skip one level. He is real gifted manz!!!

:yikes: :yikes: Where do they find the time for anything else?

They Live, Breathe, Eat, Sleep, Poo Around Tuition -ma!
:laugh: :laugh:

Thanks phankao. What's the range of scores on it? For eg., is >80% 4.0, >70% 3.8 etc?

They don't do a per-subject GPA actually but the guideline is this lah:

Above 85% is 4.3
Above 70% is 4.0
Above 65% is 3.5

Thanks. No wonder you said 3.8 not very good.

another over generalisation

RI population : sec 1 to 4, 450 each = 1800; + J1 & J2 : 1200 each = 2400, total population = 4200. How many really have tuitions given their very packed time table ? based on 6 RI boys seen coming out from tuition centre ?

断章取义!

\"A\" and Maybe 1 or a few \"A+\". Average GPA is around 3.2 to 3.5 generally. So 3.8+ is above average lah. Only cannot consider as among top student. Not unusual to have some students who are top in individual subjects among this group too. More indicative to look at their percentile than just GPA I find.

Dear all,


After my last posting, we went ahead to apply to SCGS via Violin for my DD with testimonial from the CCA teacher-in-charge.

Just received email for my DD to participate in their GAT on this Saturday.

Will see how far my DD will progress from here.

Congratulation to your dd for clearing the 1st obstacle! :rahrah:

Yeah, Congrats from me Too!
After GAT, SCGS Got Interview and Audition or Not?

[phtthp]

a) besides RGSS, which other schools DSA via ballet ?


b) besides RGSS, which other schools DSA via Rhythmic gymnastics ?

c) besides NYGH, which other schools DSA via Chinese cultural dance ?

d) which other schools (pure girls school + co-ed) DSA via musical instruments like violin, cello ?

[realwhiz]

For SCGS, after GAT, there will be a trial/audition in mid-July.


Only shortlisted candidates will be invited for interview.

So GPA 3.8 is about about 68% overall. What kind of percentage do you need to score for subjects to score A/A+?

As mentioned on other threads you posted this on, RGS does NOT offer DSA via Dance nor Ballet.
