DS say Maths paper was tough..could not finish :sad:


GA was less tough than Maths paper but still difficult. DS was upset. Told him if he did his best, then so be it.

if this child all along had been hot-housed or drilled into spotting GEP test qns pattern and can't do it when see something strange / new, is better not to go in, right ? scaly go in can't cope later come out again - his self esteem is worse hit ?

I am sure there will be kids that cannot cope and rejoin back normal class.

Any idea what is the format of the Maths paper today?? DS said he didnt do 4 questions, is it a lot?

Heard that those who go for all the GEP prep classes can normally go through round 1 easily but can’t go pass round 2 unless they are naturally gifted. I have a friend whose kids are "naturally smart", no tuition, no prep classes etc, got selected for GEP but in the end, both decided not to join the programme as they had to switch schools.


My DD did say that she couldn’t finish the last couple of questions in today’s paper. She was stuck on one question. I asked her why she didn’t move on to the next, she said she took a look and they were just as hard.
