but there is this 80% thingy ...

80% GEP or mainstream? which schools require the 80% thingy?

RI --- 80 % and above for p6 gep (ca1+sa1), kids will skip GAt for RI DSA. But please check with RI DSA website again in case there is any chances ..

Similarly for Science and SS OE questions. It will be good if there is another markers like they used to have. Not sure how was it like last year in your GE centre

so many of them go to the tr so she claimed no more dispute :roll: ...
Best is they gather the GE tr at one of the centre and do central marking, anyway not many pupils like PSLE wat. Having another marker within is not as bad as just depend on one marker, especially in OE component and SA compo.

Hi,


Can someone share what’s meant by Investigative Math for the GEP exam? Thanks.

Hi,

E3,
Your child is in P4 right? For P4, it is about patterns ie finding the nth term. For P4, it is simple nth term, no quadratic equations. For the investigative papers, most GEP students will get full marks, and if not full marks, usually due to careless mistakes. The teachers will be giving them practice papers to do before the actual test so you don't have to worry too much about it.

We received news about HCI Science workshops to be conducted over 3 full days (8am-5pm)in 2nd week of June holiday but not RI Science camp. Is there 1 organised by RI?

The HCI one will cover Biology, Chemistry and Physics related stuff. Is it the same schedule and same topics as what your ds received?
