                My daughter attended the GAT test on 28th june 2011. She has not received any email from RGS yet! Has she gotten in or not? Will they be sending emails tomorrow?

                  [quote=\"Blur Dad\"]


                  FOR RI DSA

                  I am quite clear about the RI DSA process for GE Domain
                  1) CA1+SA1 >80% - No need to take GAT test. Need to go for one interview only. (Then go to BiBi Baba and buy uniform..haha)
                  2) CA1+SA1 <80% - Need to take GAT test AND interview. Regardless how well or bad the students perform in GAT, the students will call up for interview. (Then go home and pray hard)

                  For the mainstream RI DSA process

                  it is as follow :

                  For e.g. a student apply for math domain
                  1st step - Take GAT
                  2nd step - If perform well in GAT and short listed, then go for half day selection test. Which is a 3 hours test paper.

                  3rd step - go home and wait for result.


                  If no news after taken GAT, that means not short listed.

                  After selection test is done, they will inform you asap you are successful or not

                  This is confirmed correct as at 2010 because my DS went through it


                  Hi verykiasu2010

                  You mean your DS need not required to go for interview after the half day selection test. I mean not immedately after the selection test, but after he is short listed?

                  Is there any exception? That means need to go for interview after shortlisted from the half day selection test?

                  BD[/quote]Mainstream students don't need interview. They prove their worth via the selection test. The questions in the 3 hour paper was described by many to be \"out of this world\" type. Given a choice, many would prefer the interview than to do the test. For GEPpers, they have over the Pri 5 & Pri 6 altogether 18 months to hopefully ensure an average score of 80% at the uniform test / exams set by GEP Branch.

                  To the question : No interview immediately after the test, nor after the test. If the performance in the test meets the criteria, a CO will be coming along.

                  Spoken to the RI principal as well.

                      300 pages back in this thread, :yikes: which is for last year batch of DSA, it was mentioned that there was no interview for mainstream for RI, just written test only. From RI website this year, no mention of interview also for mainstream.



                      But last year on RI web site, it did not mentioned the \"Half Day Selection\" test.

                      Let see is there any interview for this year shortlisted applicants.

                      BD

                      last two years website and this year website by RI-DSA say the same thing. No interview for for mainstream. I am very sure because my DS is from mainstream and he is now in RI together with his mainstream and GEP friends from the same pri school
