      [quote=\"Freshmint\"]Mine mentioned the classmates find both Math and GA2 easy.


      Woah....good for them... perhaps their foundation is really good and hence need not struggle..m happy for them :rahrah:

      Parents have shared in the past their kids got selected despite not completing the entire paper. Still got hope for your ds :xedfingers: Mine didn't finish one question today too. Too exhausted to think straight.[/quote]My SIL two sons also did not finish the paper but managed to get into GEP. Whether DS gets in or not, it's God's Will. Anyway, I am already happy that he made it to Round 2. Anything else will be a bonus! šŸ˜‰

                  Your gal went for the intensive 5 day course? or the normal GEP sessions?

                  Heard that they promise a $150 reward for those who get into GEP

                    In this case, won't know the boy is really Gifted by Nature or get in after Drill....drill.....drill...
                    At risk, wheather the boy can cope once in P4?? Parents got to think twice.
                    But those who get in without Prep, think more likely will do well and enjoy the programme.

                    Such kids will probably still do well in GEP, with good attitude, extra enrichments and parental help. It's a fallacy to assume all will do badly. Attitude plays an important part as well.


                    I disagree with you. GEP is not something that just hard work will get by.

                        Wow $150! I almost wanted to sign up for the intensive course but my gal did not want to. I was told the 5 day courses was fully booked.

                        In any case, have to remind our kids not to take the tests so seriously. If one has given all his/her best, take the failure in stride and move on..one must learn to overcome failure and realise that life is more than just getting good grades
