GEP 2012 - Screening & Selection

[concern2]

Funz:

It could also be cos the GEP stream is in that school itself so logistically no issue for parents. The take up rate from students not already in that school may be lower since parents will have to take into consideration transport, and child may be resistant towards going to another school.

Highly possible! At least for me, if kid can get into GEP, will have headache since nearby schools with GEP all missionary schools, and have to travel. So get in or don't get in, not a big issue to me.

In any case, how many of the doctorates out there were from GEP? There aren't many. What is proven academically when young probably give a headstart but it may not be the ultimate outcome.

There is no much co-relation between PhD and GEP, one need to have interest in research to go into Doctorate, many HA kids may not have interest in R&D

I don't know how many doctorates were from GEP. Only know that both Chenonceau and me were not from GEP

I think you can definitely qualify for GEP if the timing is right. No lah, you are not old, retirement age is 62 yrs old, both of us are far away from there :rotflmao:
