Other than the exam application details, applications should be familiar with the exam format and standards prior to the examination. The examinable subjects of the AEIS examination include English and Mathematics with special emphasis on the students' English proficiency, arithmetic abilities and reasoning abilities.

Students who attain good results and receive enrollment invitations from Singaporean Secondary and Primary Schools will be offered residence in Singapore by the government according available locations and the requests of the applicants.
