1. What is the difference between this course and the programme held in December 2023? If I have attended the course before last year, can I attend it again?
Certainly. We would encourage your child to join us again to gain more exposure and practice in components featured in the GEP test. The December run of the GEP Programme was aimed at giving students a first look at the type of questions they will see at the GEP Screening Test. In the run this year, students will still gain exposure to the types of questions in the test, but the questions introduced in this run will now be pitched at a higher level. For English, students will also widen their repertoire of vocabulary with our intensive exercises in this year's run to prepare them for the vocabulary section in the GEP screening test. For Maths, students will receive more practice with different problem types to prepare them for the Math and General Ability components of the GEP screening test.
2. If I cannot make it for some sessions of the programme, can I still sign up? Is the content covered related?
You can still attend the programme as each session is independent of each other. Should you miss any session, worksheets and answer keys will be provided.
3. Would you recommend my child taking it at P2?
We feel that exposure and practice are always useful for students who are keen on joining the GEP. Higher-ability students who can handle the intellectual rigour and demands of the GEP will get a taste of what the selection process is like. We also periodically expose our students to challenging GEP comprehension questions, Math Olympiad and IQ questions in our regular programmes. For new students, this will be good exposure to our TLL style and an eye-opening experience.
