All About T-Score

[poke4ernest]

Does anyone here knows whether it makes sense to recheck the maths paper? Will it be of help at all?

What is COP or DD/DS score?

COP refers to cut of point (admission to the sec sch)

DD refers to daughter

DS refers to son

Is it true if you are offered 3rd language, you are within 10%?


My daughter only got 237 +2 and she is offered third language too.

Her t score is pulled down by maths, maths has always been her weakness and feared subject. Tried all tutors and ways to take away her fear from maths but i guessed it didnt succeed.

Only those offered foreign languages, ie French, German and Japanese are in the top 10%. Those offered Malay, Arab etc need not be in top 10%.

According to my child's P, top 10% is 250 and above. Top 30% is 230 and above.

Differs by cohort's performance.

DD - dear daughter, damn daughter, darling daughter, disgusting daughter...whichever is suitable at that point in time, lor...but DD nevertheless !!!

The same with \"DS\" (dear son, damn son...etc).
And \"dh\" refers to \"d...husband\".
