Back to the topic on eeis scholarshio. My dd's told them that they hv to score at least 250 for psle to entitle the eeis scholarship. It is true?

Not explicitly stated on MOE website though.

Believe GEPpers enjoys a lower cutoff....certainly not 260.

I think there is no t-score requirement for GEppers.

Is EESIS for GEP & those for mainstream mutually exclusive or they belong to the same queue ? Meaning if a GEPPER gets it, he or she will not deprive another mainstreamer a chance to get it ?

But this was officially communicated to us by the MOE person who came down to the school give a talk on DSA last year. Maybe there are exceptions, I wouldn't know. Arrgh .. don't appear in front of me like that, your leaf still very distracting leh. Wanna pluck it off. :stompfeet:

If they have not already have a CO, then they probably will not get into any of the IS with gifted prog with a low T-score.

As for whether they are mutually exclsuive, I think the mainstreamer probably have a fixed COP which traditionally seems to be around 260. Whatever % they mentioned in MOE website is probably some ballpark figure.
