      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.

                      Wow, 48 questions out of 60 is already very good.

                      Dividing 20 mins by 60 questions, one can only afford around 20 seconds to answer a question. Assuming, reading takes 5 seconds, shading takes 5 seconds, a student would only have 10 seconds to derive the answer.

                      How many kids can really do that especially if its a logic question they are seeing for the first time? @.@

                        Good analysis. Is the test to check the intelligency or an elimination process?
