Ds didnt bring back HCL paper, did anyone see the paper already?

Is comprehension really so tricky? I never thought HCL could be so high standard?

Haven't gotten the paper but DD did say that comprehension is tough!

The last comprehension carries 26 marks.Understanding of the passage and Chinese must be good to do well for this particular comprehension. One of the question is to explain the understanding of 一寸光阴一寸金，寸金难买寸光阴.

Guess those who did not manage to complete the papers would not get a chance to be selected for the selection test since for gifted child, the paper should be considered easy and able to complete on time.

That is not true. There were children who did not manage to complete the papers in both round 1 & 2 but still selected for GEP.

Miracle Child:

Are all the questions in GEP screening and selection tests MCQ format or mixture of MCQ and open-ended?

Round 2 is a mixture of MCQ and open-ended qns.

The next common test in Sept 2012 is investigation activities.

The school will be using Lego Mindstorms (http://mindstorms.lego.com/en-us/Default.aspx) to teach the children to build and program the machine.
