        Of course! I am not referring to the whole yr syllb but only a few topics. My point is a IP program is on a \"faster track\" program therefore the sch would like the student to learn things as fast and wider scope as possible. The sch could not let their own IP program fail. Thank u!

          only three simple questions, Why you like math? how do you think about leadship? etc.

          3 student, 30 mins each session, there are total 6 student (2 sessions) attended today RGS interview under math domain.

          If I am not wrong, all are SMOPS platinum winners.
          wmd,

          Heard from some who applied via Maths Domain to RGS already got their DSA results. Has your daughter receive hers?

            Hi doesn't matter which IP school really...but it's not ACS ( I) and Dunman High is all i will say. And also he was not from the gifted program. And yes even i hv to \"make appointment\" to talk or discuss things with him because he's usually home late and lots of assignments to do ...tests etc..

            1. why the slight discrimination against ACS (I) and Dunman High?
            2. And all IP students need is good time management, and everything will be fine. Gradually assignments and tests become part of a routine and way of life, and they learn to cope with it. It's just a matter of how well they manage their time, and they can have time to spare for relaxation as well.
            It isnt that bad.

Sigh...too b so stressed up lah 😢 :stupid: :!: And please read this : I have TOTAL respect for ALL children in the world.. gifted , not gifted ALL schools .

                That's fast. Were these girls successful in their DSA applications?

                  I do respect your respect and love for all children, but Im sorry that i'm not entirely convinced. Merely naming two schools cant really narrow much in that matter. Maybe having more sensitive comments would help since there may well be students viewing this thing too, for all we know.
