My DS signed for the outing. He is in Tag2. Your DS is in Tag2 or Tag3?

hahaha.............they're in the same class
Is it ur son who score chinese 56/60? :rahrah:

No, his score was not good :(, which really worried me.

Gep English is usually tough to score as there are only 2 components, cloze and comprehension. However the paper only contributes to 40 percent. If he has done his daily work well, it may pull up his overall English mark.

I got from DS that they were asked to fill some survey form about their feeling of this GEP course yesterday.

My DS always say nothing to update me. Sometimes I need to find out thru here....Just last week he brought back eng file so many pages have question mark by teacher bcos no signature fr parent. :mad:

The HC scores varies greatly in their class....fr 56 to 28 out of 60. Heard the median is 32. Is it true?
The fact that ur son is chosen to participate for the outing shows his score is not that bad cos only the top few scorers are asked to participate.

Science result is out. Her class result between 23/60 to 54/60. Only 1 person scored full marks for mcq section.

I didn't even know that's such a new thread here as I usually goes to the \"View my posts\" option until a fren hightlighted to me in a pm how come I was so quiet.. I am puzzled as the 2011 GE thread was not that much active these days.


I should have found out earlier and then I won't be so stressed by myself.
But still hope not too late.

Really? But I heard from him the median is 46??? That's why I am worried. Maybe his compo score pulled him up? But teacher did not give back the compo paper.

I thought the outing is for everyone in his class as he didn't mention this.

But if half of the class failed the baseline, does it make sense for these to attend remedial classes ? Is the ppw was really too challenging , or the current batch of students are really below expectations ? :?

DS did quite well for revision and past year mock papers so was very :yikes: with his results. Anyway told him not too feel too disappointed just have to work harder for the rest of the year. Don't want him to lost heart, he told me \"mum, maybe I am not suitable for the prog?\"

Pinball, I am the one who is wondering if my son is in the wrong programme or not.. I am more stress than him I think, especially seeing his failing results in mocked test, exam and the \"greenery\" in his daily worksheets.

The GEP programme is meant to stretch pupils' abilities...

It not only stretches their, it also stretches my patience towards my son and my blood pressure daily asking him to do his school work. He simply takes his own sweetest and longest time in doing misc things at home. *sigh*. I find myself is such a naggy old lady especially these 2 mths.

don't worry, I feel as long the child enjoy the work and able to cope with daily work and not too stress it should be ok. A little setback for the test is okay, we must give our kids a bit of time and manage the expectation of our kid and also as parent ourselves.
