GEP 2012 - Screening & Selection
-
During my DS time I remember yellow envelop was given on monday. Talk was on thur n deadline for submission on the following mon. We were unprepared for the offer n had to scrunble to find out more info abt GE program. Time was really very tight to make such a Big decision.
So if the talk is on 10 nov I think result may b next week. -
had called moe and they said they have yet to post results to school. if thats the case, then next week is more likely

IF…I say IF…our kids been selected, how to choose the school? will MOE post according to our choice or by the location / add where you stay? Anyone knoe students from NORTH ( woodlands/yishun) will normally post to which school? seems all are very far.

You make your 3 choices & MOE will try to post according to your preference, subject to availability.
I stay in Northwest, nearest choices : NHPS, HPPS & NYPS. Yes, all very far ....

Hi all,
this is my first post. Similar to many others my DS also appeared for GEP 2nd round test and is now eagerly waiting for the results. I know some of GEP schools are preferred more than others. My questions is for Indian PR ( whose native language is neither Chinese/Malay or Tamil) are there any other specific consideration in selecting the GEP school. I think SAP school only offer Chinese as mother Tongue. So are SAP GEP school out of bound whose mother tongue is not Chinese.
Just want to be prepared in case DS does get selected? -

You are encouraged to list 3 choices. However, we only put 1 school in NorthWest cos it's the nearest. Die Die must go there. LOL
Some of my classmates came from all over the island. It may seem far at first, but the kids will get used to it lah. The kids never complain about the distance. Only the parents did. :boogie: -

Yes it was a rush. May be MOE did that for a purpose - the longer you drag to make decision, the more worries you have about the program. So don't think so much. just make swift decision lah. :evil:
