6 yrs ahead is very far ....
i personally know of a 20 year old boy. His PSLE score was only 201 (barely cross the express stream hurdle) - definitely not a Geper, and studied in an ulu, remote neighbourhood Secondary school, unheard of. But today, he is awarded an overseas scholorship to US by a prominent famous foreign bank - where all his fees, accomodation are all provided for.
the main thing is ... how you END at the finishing line that matters, not so much the starting point.
100% agree. Was talking to a IP school boy who got into local medical school. He said that in his IP school, those who did extremely well by year 6 are mainly original mainstreamers. He remarked that the line is blurred between GEPpers and mainstreamers after a short while in secondary school.
The kid is only as good as the last exam that he took, meaning the next exam is a fresh game again.
IMHO, must strike a balance between pursuit of excellence and giving them a decent childhood. Don't end up chasing a wild goose and also missing on good childhood/teenage memories :stupid: :slapshead:
GEP, non GEP - All of us jiayou! :grphug: -
there is no more official classification between geppers and non-gep after sec two
my understanding could be wrong -

RA is for RI, HCI has CSE, Bicultural prog etc, etc etc each school has their own special program beyond the SBGE

I don't remember any parent chided him. He just disappeared into thin air and never came back to update his DSA outcome. Maybe he registered using another nick lah.Snow Crystal:
