          No leh. My dd's time was the same. English and GA1 on one day, then Math and GA2 on another day. And my dd's older than yours.

            My DS1 also got through round 1. His class (HA) had about 75% got through. Heard one of the MA class had only 1 who went through. His classmate from P1/P2 (not same class this year) also got thru - unexpected as his English was not too good, tho' his Maths was excellent.

            Congrats!! Looks like both our DS' classes hav abt the same no of success rate. It seems that Maths is the determining subj as most kids' Eng level is abt the same.

            I have no clue what the GA papers are about too? But being so close to the exam dates, there is really not much preparation that we can do or help our kids :roll:.

            Best of Luck!!

                  UNSW is new to me. ICAS yes at P3 level, they even have at P2. depending on whether the school inform the parents to sign up. I signed my boy up for fun last year for computer skills. This year, he did computer skills and 3 other subjects as his form teacher suggested that everyone from their class should attempt all ICAS papers for exposure.
