      No problem Funx3, hope the GAT proceeded well for your DD. One of DD's friend who took yesterday's GAT broke down and cried when the car when her mummy picked her up. She didn't complete most of the questions ...

      So heartache when I heard that...
      Funx3:

      Big thanks from Me Too .... :love: :love:
      Will Let my Gal Read about your gal's interview when she's back ....

        This is also interviewer-dependent. RGS runs 2-3 interview sessions at the same time, held at different venues and with different panel. So maybe you might meet an interview panel that likes to start in the middle? :)[/quote] :slapshead: :slapshead:

          [quote=\"TREX8\"]Hi jtoh, DD is somewhat a perfectionist and she felt lousy as one of the girls was so much more eloquent and phrased her response so much better in the interview. DD felt much better when I highlighted that it is not an elimination exercise - doesn't mean that when one is in, the other 2 are out. [quote]


          Well Said TREX8!
          U Put it in such an Encouraging Way :love: :love:

                  I think this is quite common. Most of the students would not complete all the questions. 20 mins for 59 questions, about 20sec per question. Not easy.

                  Just take an example from last year. One student only completed 47 questions, still able to get a CO from RI.

                    Hi Blur Dad,


                    is the other 2 girls in the interview room come from the some school as your DD?
                    - Nope, all 3 from different sch.

                    The interviewers ask the girls one by one the same questions? Or the interviewers ask a question and any of the 3 girls would answer the question?
                    DD said interviewer asked one question, each girl took turn to answer that question. Then interviewer asked next qn, and each girl took turn to answer the next question. DD said even the order of answering question is the same, from the girl seated on the left, to the middle, then the right.
                    Blur Dad:

                    HI TREX8

                    Thank you for sharing. Did not see anyone share such information for a long time.

                    Just wonder, is the other 2 girls in the interview room come from the some school as your DD? The interviewers ask the girls one by one the same questions? Or the interviewers ask a question and any of the 3 girls would answer the question? Hope you would share.

                    Thank you

                    Hi TREX8

                    Thank you again for sharing.

                    Not to worry, Your DS is GEPers with >80% for SA1, right?

                    Base on the number of GEP girls and the number of intake for RGS and NYGH. Most of them will be able to get a CO from either school. Not to worry, your DS stand a high chance to get CO from both schools.

                    BD
