oops! did I start a war here? :oops:


anyway, looks like NH and HP is not really an option with KSP.

No lah, where got war? Just mostly GEP parents giving you their thoughts on which school they prefer.

No war, just off topic discussion to move to the right thread.

I’m curious to know, if the GEP vacancies in a particular school is "oversubscribed", how will the school decide which applicant to take in? Is it first come first serve, dependent on overall score of round 2, ballot…?


NYPS n RGPS seems to be the hot favorites. Now with the service of the new MRT station, lagi hot.

my impression is that they will try to match like-for-like.
eg, if u r from SCGS and u chose RGPS, then u will be ahead in the Q coz both all-girls schools and same vincinity.

But ti could be my imagination....

So from SAP school to another SAP school also got priority?

Is MindStrecther GEP preparatory class essential? They only guarantee e child to be selected at 1st round. Anyway, MS has already done a screening before accepting e child so personally I do not buy their idea.


My DS went for their placement tests wanting to join their HA classes. He got through and MS suggested to enrol him for gep preparatory class. I dont see a need in making my child go through such intense learning. Anyway, he is selected for e 2nd round.
