In DSA talk, after the session ends with Q&A, was told that GEP students will be separate from mainstream. The reason: they found that this year Y1 students cannot cope. Looks like it is true.

question - who cannot cope? GEP or the mainstream?

How come, HCI no Geo textbook, but got triple science in sec 1 instead?

(PS, that was the content of the book list they gave me)

They have textbook difference in Maths, and GEP is called the\"Ispark\", stated on the booklist. And there is triple science from sec 1 in HCI? My booklist (sec 1) has bio chem and physics already. :?

Is it for ispark?

No, both.

The only difference for i spark is the maths.

I don’t know about High School but I can tell you NYGH separated the Sciences into Trip Science since Sec 1 as well. More organized and a stepping stone for Upper Sec.


OTOH, I never had Science textbooks (Or rather, they were useless). I think we mainly learnt through sets of notes + powerpoints. Same for English and Geog IIRC.

You're from NYGH is it?
Their entry score's still terrifyingly high this year, even with the drop of results.
