Situational test is different from GAT(mostly test on logic). Situational test will be tested more on how you react given a problem. I guess they are more keen to find out how the kid would react and the ability to solve problem given a situation. Hence, it is a written test and not multiple choice as those GAT required by RI or VS. SJI focus is more on leadership capability then just purely academic success I suppose.

Any one went to RI GAT already? Heard from my DS classmates that it was quite difficult, 60min for 60 questions. Remember last year is 20 min for 60 questions?

According to my ds, it was 20 mins for 60 questions and he could not manage to finish all. Just merely able to complete 48 questions.

if those 48 are mostly correct, should be able to progress to domain selection test

Thanks, I really hope so but it will not be so easy to get into RI … There are many more brilliant boys.
