But both are still above 80s and exempted from GAT right ?[/quote]cylg:
[quote=\"ngbrdad\"]From my own observations thru the posts in this thread, Maybe the interview dates are based on SA1 results. The higher the marks, the earlier the interview dates.
dont think so as my DS classmates whose result lower than his is 1-2 days b4 him leh :scratchhead:
Hi ngbrdad,

Heard that some HCI bi-cultural camp participants have received verbal offers. Wonder how these kids are selected to attend the camp in the first place.
based on P4 & P5 overall results and must be good in Chinese, and is recommended by the schools. However, camp performance / results do play a part in the overall selection. It is a very small group who will get the offers. In the pioneering batch, 42 from 6 pri schools were selected for the camp but less than 10 were made the offers. One was on waitlist. Not all will end up in HCI. -

My recent daily routine:
In the morning
1. Check email (for any news on interview)
2. Login to NYGH DSA site (to check whether the "pending" might miraculously change into "CO" without interview)
3. Login to KSP DSA forum to get latest news
Repeat steps 1, 2, and 3 in the afternoon … -

NYPS has been having 4 GEP classes for very many years liao[/quote]Not sure if there's increase in the number of GEP students for Dragon year. I only know that for my Ds year, the number of classes for each sch is as follows :
1) Nan Hua - 4 classes
2) Nangyang - 4 classes
3) RGS - 3 classes
4) Catholic High - 2 classes
5) Henry Park - 2 classes
6) St Hilda - 2 classes
7) ACI - 3 classes
Tao Nan - 3 classes?? not sure
9) Rosyth - 2 classes ??? not sure either.
Yah, so I don't think there's been any catering for Dragon babies at all. Based on the list above, Nanhua has 4 but that's wrong, bec they actually only have 2 GEP classes. ACS and Tao Nan probably only have 2 classes too. Are there are any parents here from ACS and Tao Nan who can confirm this?
GEP classes are usually not full classes most years so in the case of Dragon year, they probably just need to top them up a bit.[/quote]
If there's no increase in classes, then believe the sec sch will not do so as well.. so more competitive for the GEP Boys then.

jtoh:
IF your info is correct, then Nanhua, ACS and Tao Nan all increased their classes by one.
No the no. of GEP in take has not increased in Nanhua. The 4 classes are called twining classes. Two years ago they implemented twining classes per MOE appeal to let GEP and non-GEP socialise more. In the twining classes they let the GEP and High ability non-GEP pupils(50% each) attend mix class for some subjects other than the main GEP subjects Eng, Math and Sc. They attended HCI togather and for SS the non-GEP pp also attend but are not graded. They also let these non-GEP pp participate in IRS projects. These only implement in Nanhua. For other GEP centre, was told the non-GEPpers do not attend SS and IRS with GEP per. When come to attend the 3 main GEP subj Eng, Math and Sc, they form only 2 classes, about 50 pupils. Read some where in the thread that this year they reduced the selected HA pupil to 1 class. Not sure if current NYPS GEP classes also have HA non-GEPers doing IRS and SS togather cos the same p who implemented this now in nyps. -
