2009 GEP Screening And Selection
-
Thanks for all the congrats msg

It's a relief to be informed by the school of this GEP results, regardless of the outcome, as the suspense is really killing!
Sorry, I didnt know the rules here.. haha, have just left a newbie msg in the other thread.
Anyway, GEP or not, all the kids will have to take PSLE 3 years later, so that is the more important test we should concentrate on, right?
Arrgh, being a Sporean parent is so stressful sometimes

Like school have no name....sigh. :stupid:
This is a good one. I like it. I encountered this too.
Neighbourhood school or whatever schools also have a name. Don't know why some parents are so secretive in revealing the school name. Parents should feel proud of the school their child is in. When telling other parents in front of the child, it makes the child feel recognised he belongs to that school. -

Actually, the probability of getting into GEP is about 500 out of the total cohort of about 50 000 P3 pupils(1%). Not sure about the chances of winning toto though!

Time to move on. The fact that she got into the second round is an achievement in itself. -

Hi
Just to share
Eldest boy completed GEP, now at HCI.
2nd Boy passed 1st test, but stop at 2nd. But he managed to get into high ability class and mixed partially with the GEPers, MT and SS, and rest of the projects.
3rd boy waiting for tomorrow or next week result.
But from my wife contact, there are two family that she know, all the kids are in GEP.
Cheers.
