[quote=\"Edureach\"]See so many interested in only RI/HCI familes. Just have one advice, if your kids still unable to clear 265 in their mid-term exam despite trying all out and hve been attending numerous tuitions, suggest you look elsewhere.


Its not pleasant to be at the bottom 20% of RI/HCI! One can achieve their aspirations in other IP schools.

Does this apply to GE student? If not, then what's the gauge for them? I'm also worry that my DS can't cope in such schools?

Doesn't matter which stream he's from. Must place him in a school that you think he's likely to do well. Doing well means academically high average and above in his chosen IP school, representing his school in his chosen ccas/academics and holding an exco seat.

The above are just some of the attributes unis are looking for. Never go for the brand name alone, its a mistake many parents make each year.[/quote]The prob is the kid might not want to listen to the parents instead want to follow his peers. I've been telling my DS abt being independent & e competitiveness in such schools, asking him to think twice if he is lucky enough to be accepted. Personally, I'm ok w other IP schools.

Maybe you can trust your kid to understand his own needs and abilities and that he's not following his peers blindly? Explain the demands of the schools he's interested in so he's making a decision with his eyes open.

I have just received a notification today for my DS DSA at RI's to take the GAT test on 19 June, which is the first available date. I guess you should receive notification soon.
