which means tomorrow's Chinese oral topic could be on 公共场所？ -
Thanks ! Actually that’s what I heard about aggregate t score computation too bec the school shared. However what I wasn’t sure about is whether A* is 91 and above or could potentially be lower because of the bell curve.
-
I would think that if the individual subject T-score is computed based on the formula, then there will be no "full 100 marks" to speak of, in which case, the A* grading of 91 will not be applicable. Unless the subject grading is independent of the subject T-score, which I don’t think so. Does this make sense?

English is using the context of writing poems to teachers for teacher's day celebration to discuss the topic of showing gratitude.
Chinese video is on helping others but the third question reveals the topic of friendship. -
@myteapot - yes I think it makes sense
but we have seen kids with high T score but one or two A* so I was wondering if it's because the grading is independent :). Note moe' answer in the FAQ was \"objective standards\" 
-
Hi ACMummy, yes I understand what you mean.
So it is this 'objective set of standards' that we don't have clarity on and open to interpretation. As to the scenario you mentioned, guess there can be various factors such as really high A* accompanied with weak As or other grades. -
Usually day 2 eng oral is based on an activity? E.g. If they are keen to participate , etc . Is tat rite?
-
For those whose kids are in the 2nd group oral today, did they have to wait for everyone in the batch to complete before they can be dismissed?
