:goodpost: :salute:

My dd was in this program eons ago (she is in the university now) and it is true that those who were 'trained' or 'hothoused' into the program suffered not only during the next 3 years but beyond. :sad:

MOE has good reasons to advise parents not to send their kids for any program/training or prepare for the tests meted out in Round 2. Even if your child does not clear Round 2, be proud that he/she is within the top 2 to 10% of his/her co-hort. As for the rest of the kids who did not make it to Round 2, I am sure that they have other abilities/talents to make meaningful contributions to the society in their own special ways. As parents, it is our responsibility to help our children discover their strengths in other areas beyond the academics.

Actually, not everyone will enjoy it regardless of hothoused/trained or otherwise. The things is that some GEP centres do have higher expectation from the kids but some Gepers prefer to do things at their own pace, so there will be some mismatch, leading to 'chers picking on certain individuals, which will result to their unhappiness in the prog.

Any hints on which GEP center(s) are more inclined to let the kids do it at their more comfortable pace?

My boy said there r around 70 kids from his school.

so many.. if this for the biggest cohort school i know, 70 close to 20% !

Sounds like NYPS to me.

My DS test center is at Kuo Chuan Presbyterian Primary. The school will organize bus transportation to and fro to the test center.

CHS release the Round 1 result today. Teacher informs parent via Class Dojo.
