      Wah NJC Hast timing a bit weird leh

      Must report by 12pm
      Test from 12.45pm till 1800hr

      The kids are all going to be hungry. Must eat early lunch liao

      And looking at the timing for the tests

      1 Reading Comprehension 45 Minutes
      2 Mathematical Reasoning 40 Minutes
      3 Abstract Reasoning 30 Minutes

      Don't see how they can stretch it to 5 hr 15 minutes even with 30 min between each papers.

      Maybe there is an error in their instruction, ends at 1600 and not 1800.

      Don't think there's error cos my son's test time is in the morning. Must report by 7.30am and ends at 12.45pm.

      I calculated at most 175 minutes only with one hour break. What is the extra 2 hours for ?

        Is the HAST paper for NJC is on 9th July?

            16th July.
            So have 2 sessions. Luckily my boy's is in the afternoon.
            To reach NJC at 7 is a bit too early.

                In terms of chance, yes, rather high chance since DD did well for SA1 plus from GEP. But until we get the black and white for a CO from either school, the outcome can still be either way …


                DH just said that now all our schedule plans around "Post DSA" and "Pre/Post PSLE" …

                [quote="Blur Dad]
                Not to worry, Your DS is GEPers with >80% for SA1, right?

                Base on the number of GEP girls and the number of intake for RGS and NYGH. Most of them will be able to get a CO from either school. Not to worry, your DS stand a high chance to get CO from both schools.

                        No choice lah. With our DDs undergoing puberty plus the burden of vying for entry to their dream school(s) weighing on their shoulders plus facing their first national exam, we just got to be their counsellor and cheerleading and rah rah team lor...

                        Hi jtoh, DD is somewhat a perfectionist and she felt lousy as one of the girls was so much more eloquent and phrased her response so much better in the interview. DD felt much better when I highlighted that it is not an elimination exercise - doesn't mean that when one is in, the other 2 are out.

                        Well Said TREX8!
                        U Put it in such an Encouraging Way :love: :love:
