Think this year Sec 3 2020, Chemistry is the disastrous subject in the whole cohort, since this is the only subject the teacher disclosed it in the class. But based on the comments made previously by other parents, Chem should be the common subject to face such disastrous results in Sec 3 bah...

My DD thinks the sec 3 are the busiest. Besides studies commitment, CCA and other school commitments also super heavy. In her words \"everything in school is organised by the sec 3s\". Perhaps that is also why the grades dip in sec 3?

Wow... see this liao also scared. :scared:

If Sec 3 chemistry average is D7, other subjects average should be much better in order to promote to Sec 4…?

I believe there are also students scoring A1 and better than B3; but they may also some students failed very badly that pulled down overall cohort. Don't forget there are still 40% accounted for the total marks for the subject. So usually other subjects will pull up in order to promote to Sec 4. So like what Imp75 mentioned, don't be so overly worry.

Wow, is your dd in Advanced Chem class? 80% of her class getting A1 is amazing. How I wish my dd can score at least A2 for this subject. She's always in the range of B3 - B4. Dd said her Chem teacher told the class that Sec 3 average grade is D7, wonder she heard wrongly or not. Dd was so pissed off when I asked her twice:\"Are you sure you heard correctly? D7 huh?\"

Dd is in triple sci class and only 3 girls taking Adv Math. Majority of her class didn’t do as well last year for a few subjects including Chem, HCL, LA and IH. I think is normal. Come to Sec 4 they progress well, especially in IH, the cohort average is A1 this year.

Any other cohort averages of subjects that you know? My girls teachers nvr said anything.[/quote]So far only Chem and IH teachers revealed cohort average. Mostly her teachers only revealed her class performance but Dd thinks that maths should be very high especially IM2, EOY paper is very easy, there are students scoring perfect score.

Hi, i think the school website used to show the core and elective subjects for the various years of Sec 1-4, but now it doesn’t show the info. Can i ask which are the compulsory subjects tat all Sec 3-4 students must take? (my understanding is 5 subjects of LA, higher chinese, maths 1, maths 2, chemistry)

From what I know, Chemistry is still compulsory when you have opt for at least 2 Sciences. Bio is not compulsory, as it is not a prerequisites for JC subject's combi. The school highly encouraged the students to have Chem as one of the compulsory sciences' subjects.
