GEP - General Syllabus Discussion

[GiftedGem]

Do your kids enjoy GEP ? Well, so far, my DD enjoys. However, she doesn’t enjoy doing project for a simple reason - DATELINE. She feels that she is pressed for time to do a submission. Time management again.


The other day, DD mentioned abt her 5 mths in her new school - Her classmates - blur but bright ones hor, trs who are dedicated ( esp Math tr who even goes to the extent to offer supplementary classes for this exam revision ). Of course, the lacking ones are those trs who sweepingly brush thru the subjects and not willing to extend helping hands when asked for explanations to why and how.

For mock pps, DD’s sch did not specific the yr of exam. Normally, sch will give out 2 pp for each subject. More concerned w Sci for this Thurs cos it is challenging to answer to the specific Sci term. Got a check with some parents and found out that RGPS and NY gives one Sci mock pp for revision whereas ACS has two mock pps.

The year of the three Math mock papers (2000, 2004 and 2011) given to my DS was indicated on the cover page but not the other subjects. For English, i think there were two sets and for science & SS, only one set.

Any known results for Science yet? FT admitted it is a tough pp, but has not revealed any result yet. Other schools hv the same feelings? Keeping fingers crossed …

Goodness Gracious. Haven’t gotten the Sci paper back.

What is TAG 2 or 3?

DD addressed more on Eng. She finds it tough as compared to the last 2 mock papers. One of the qns was asking the meaning of ‘inaccessible’. She had the hard time find the subsititute word in the passage and ends up with ‘remote’. Afew of her classmates did the same. Told her that the ans is wrong cos remote can still be accessible.

See how it goes.

Remote is right word. Congrats to yr dd.
