hi.....
Went to the "SST 1 day selection camp" last week....
Sucks...
Welp, I guess kedi's dream to go to SST is more or less.... shattered...Huanan & Jian Yang were supposed to go. But they never showed up. So.... wasted lor. At least Kun Yao was with me. ;)
Okay, you want to know about what happened?
Well errm.. we had a higher ablity selection test.... test was a bit like New South Wales. Only it was printed by ACER(not the computer manafacturer) So we had cromprehension(45 mins),matimatical reasoning(HARD!!!, 40 mins) and abstract reasoning(patterns, 30 mins)
Then we had lunch... which was crap.
Then we did a teamwork project. Paired up with some other strangers. Had to construct a bridge using the following:
8 satay sticks
4 ice-cream sticks
1 rafia string
2 plasters
1 bottle of glue
We had to construct a bridge that would hold a BAG of about 15 marbles!!! Boy, and I thought it was only a piece of marble. But, against all odds, we managed to do it. So, woo!!! After that, there was nothing to do so we just hung around in the chemistry lab and played with the water taps. Luckily they did not turn on the taps that contained gas. Otherwise, BOOM!!! NO MORE SST!!! And erm.... we got home after that so that was more or less how the selection camp went about. Interview for further shortlisted pupils is from 3-14 August. 1 week later, still no news. So, we're gonna have to brace for impact, I guess.
That's all for now!!!
Bye bye!!!
