Thank you so much for such a detailed reply.. it’s very helpful.
I think no one know the exact answer other than the school themselves, and they could even change by next year ... heard that also planning to explore non math and science subjects like weiqi (as a lot of those doing well in weiqi are also doing well in the school ... eg. most of the weiqi dan students got gold in various olympiad competition).velkalai\" post_id=\"1924449\" time=\"1564495253\" user_id=\"12351:
Hi Parents,
May I know if the kids got NMOS medals to be shortlisted for the selection camp.. coz my daughter is in P5 and she didn’t get to the second round though she got Gold in Sasmo..
TIA for the replies and all the very best to the kids.. hope they get into their dream school 😊
Through all the hear/say/see ... my personal conclusion (I am sure others could have different experience or know of example that prove otherwise) is that the school try to gauge on 2 areas ... passion in the subjects and abilities to excel in the subjects.
On abilities ... it includes prelim score for Math and Science (was told need minimum A for both), awards in maths and science related competition (note each competition has different \"value\" ... depending on participants of the competition). Usually the more local participants and across more schools, esp the GEP schools, the higher the \"value\" in term of the awards. For example, if you look at SASMO ... you hardly see participants from the GEP schools.
On passion ... did the students go beyond PSLE topics due to their interest, and how they deal and work on the round 2 assessments (again doing well in competition is an indication that the students have gone beyond PSLE topics). So for example, if DD didn't get to second round in NMOS, what does she do subsequently ... like ok, it is what it is? or knowing what she lack and working towards RIPWMC/APMOPS and etc?
Abilities is always easier to assess and they have their first round test to help to gauge, and also the round 2 stations. Passion is mainly assess through observation on how the students approached problems and challengers. That is why those in Masterclass or Einstein Club have an advantage as the school has been working with the students for quite a while, so easier to assess their ability and passion.
Lastly, I don't feel that the school is looking for students who are good in every math and science subjects (I think ability in Math has a slightly higher value because those good in Math will usually be good in Physic and Computing, and those good in Physic will be good in Chemistry ... Bio is the odd one). Instead, more of for two or three of the five (Maths, Physic, Chemistry, Biology, Computing). Most of them dislike biology -
