      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.



      This is what I'm doing now. I'm trying to share as much info w him. Kudos to this forum! There's so much info available. :lovesite:

                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.

This is why they ask you to pay the $50 upfront. This is unlike HCI where only short listed applicants will be invited to take test, and only then you will be asked to pay the money.

                        My DS from mainstream and we know very well that we got practically zero chance, becos not GEP. But just don't want to regret not trying.
