Oh, i thought that one of the criteria for EEIS was a min Tscore of 250? :? Remember hearing about a 250 t-score requirement, what is it for?

Really? But no min scores was mentioned during one of those parent/teacher meeting. I remembered they said the child must retain gep status (pass ss, good attitude n pass psle).

To get the eeis scholarship, is there a minimum psle score tag to it?W

No minimum score. But must have been promoted to secondary GEP status and passed SS.

Hi Jtoh, is it a 4 yrs scholarship? Any string attached?

If u managed to dsa not a IS, chances is that u will get the eesis. But if u have less than 250 n trying to get into IS via S1, chances of getting into IS n the sbge is really not too good. Maybe that's how the 250 came about.

EESIS is only for INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS (IS), so if you aren't in an IS you won't be awarded EESIS.

:thankyou: Nebbermind and Jtoh. I took the liberty of \"un-autocorrect\" for you, hope you don't mind.

:thankyou: Herbie for the MOE link.
