      RIWMC for RI and SMOPS/APMOS for HCI


      What should be the score to get a chance for an interview?

      Friendship, offcourse having RI Distinction and SMOPS/APMOS Platinum ,and yes GOLD is good but General Ability test is equally important (for RI >80% for GEP kids u dont need to worry about interview atall πŸ˜„ ) + any other expectional skills.

      Parents correct me If I am wrong.

      Should not take it for granted or speculate that way as in previous years there have always been >80% not getting CO.

          Hi Parents, Kiasucy, Yukilei


          I am submitting the documents tomorrow. Have very basssssic question ya. I am putting all supporting documents including the report card photo copies in to a folder grouped in certain criteria's.

          1. Do I put the RI Covering letter & Application form (punchhole)
          and put in to the folder .
          2. My Son prepared a outer cover for the file itself . Do I paste it.

          :imdrowning:

          Leeven, is item 2 required? :scared: We only have item 1 per their instruction. Submitted with payment to their general office. They checked and arrange them their way, clip them and acknowledge on the spot.

          Same as Kiasucy, I've only submitted item 1, with clip on it. No punchhole, no file.

            Zann, what have you heard abt the little dragons in terms of competitiveness? I've heard that one school in the west have 4 students that score 90% SA1 overall, & they're all Girls! My DS was joking with me that lucky he's not a girl, if not, will hv to compete with these girls. πŸ˜“

            But he forgets that there're actually more GE boys than girls! The competition will be even stiffer for the boys!

                Went RI to submit the document yday. Staff check thru & asked whether I'll be overseas in May & June as RI might call us.

                Did the staff say this to any of you? Thought they'll contact us thru email?
                You will also get postal mail notification.

                        which school you are talking about. any way go to the school website for details of GAT . each school has its own procedure and details and dates it is conducted. If you have gone to open house , they should hve given the details.
