TripleKidParent:
Help! :?: My kids are 12 years old this year and will be having their PSLE this year. According to their Primary 5 SA2 results, they will get at least 240. We live in the north. Any secondary schools to recommend? Thank you.

Just wondering, how did you estimate the Tscore as 240?

Have you tried MOE's School Information Service website at http://app.sis.moe.gov.sg/schinfo/index.asp? It helps you identify a school using different search parameters such as location, PSLE T-score, CCA offered, academic and non-academic achievements, etc.

All the best to your child's PSLE!

Something must be changed at PSLE level

Hi, I do not think there is something wrong with the primary education or PSLE. It is natural that PSLE benifits the early bloomers. Solving problems with models is a very good training for primary school students. Besides, they really have difficulty in understanding algebra.

MOE is to blame to form such kind of IP programs because it is the IP program that exclude most of the late bloomers from the IP-based junior colleges.


Know of two students from same neighbourhood schools in the north. Both hve ordinary PSLE scores, did well in their 0-level and scored seven distinctions in 2009 A-level exam. Both had obtained max unis rank pt-90.

Our system allows for late bloomers. No worries.[/quote]

Totally agree with Innovate. There are many paths to success. IP or Non IP , A level or IB Diploma etc etc....the goal is to enter a good Uni and a good faculty.

Hi,


PSLE score is the score of only 1 exam. Last yr my son appealed and entered DHS. He might be among the lowest score in the school but thru he consistent work he was top 5 in his class beating the others who scored much higher than him in PSLE. So work hard and enjoy yr sch life and dun think negatively. Cheers

Yes, PSLE scores aren't necessarily Predictive of sec sch success. My son DSAed into ACSI IP thru the HAST. his PSLE score wouldn't even have earned him a place in the O level track. He's been scoring 40 points n above the past 2 years, n picked up 1st prize in the school's creative essay writing competition. This year he came in 3rd in class, beating one of the top 10 PSLE scorers in his year. He's no mugger toad either; he's very active in sports CCAs n prefectorial duties.

My psychologist friend tells me achievement tests (as opposed to aptitude tests) are poor predictors of future success, so don't worry if your PSLE scores aren't stellar. It simply means you aren't as well prepared as others. It's like music exams- scoring distinction doesn't necessarily make you a good musician if all you did all year was practise your exam pieces to perfection at the expense of a wider repertoire. it simply means you've prepared those pieces well.

One huge difference too. The HAST or even the GAT (non-verbal) tests would tend to favour those who are poor in mother tongue. No mother-tongue tests in those aptitude tests!!!!!!!!

Why did you say Arithmatics is not allowed in PSLE Maths exam? My DS2 just finished PSLE this year. The entire maths paper was done using a lot of Arithmatics?

Or are you referring to Algebra vs Model method? .

Sorry , i meant Algebra.. Two variable method like Assume X & y to form equ & solve. I understand you aare not allowed to use this ( Atleast my DD school teacher never allowed this & instructed to use Model methis)

My son also did PSLE this year. His math teacher also said Algebra is allow in PSLE. If the answer is wrong, there will be no method mark. In fact, most of P6 pupils feel difficult to use Algera for problem solving.[/quote]I have the same understanding as you. Although I have taught my DS how to use algebra for problem solving, but I asked him to use it as last resort. It is easier for him to use model method for most PSLE level questions.

That just goes on to show , how primary education system favors hard working but not so intelligent pupils. Of course you need basic intellience but the way maths in primary system works is on doing practice for endless hours. I had several encounters to support this.

1: Private maths tutor recounts that maths sums are done by recalling , if students have done such sum before & mechnically follow steps. If they have not done such sum before, it will be difficult to read & solve based on problem solving skills. How sad. You should build skills to solve complex problems rather than memorizing similar situation.

2: My dd's friend student tops in one of the not so popular priamry school in intial years . Her mother thought that she is not intellient type though!

3: Not allowing arithmatic way of solving maths. Now calculators are allowed which is good step forward, but this must be only education system where Arithmatic is not allowed in Maths ! It leaves students to do what i mentioned in point 1.

No wonder seconday results indicates above. I have example in my DD ( now in Sec2) where her sec 1 result is so encourging having entered school at cut-off.

Or are you referring to Algebra vs Model method? Even though the kids are taught only simple Algebra at P6 and not taught simultaneous equations in the syllabus, but I understand from my DS2's maths teacher, they are allowed during PSLE exam. In fact, all mathematically sound methods are allowed. The only caution is that if a child uses simultaneous equation method to solve a problem sum and if he makes careless mistakes, he is not given method marks. That's my understanding. For those taking future PSLE exam, maybe worthwhile to confirm the understanding.

OK the results have come out can you ppl share with me you score and whatt sch you got into... i got 260 and my mum was like CMI(cannot make it) cos i have a good friend who scored 270 the highest in the sch....i went to raffles though but my mum still said that i would be the worst in raffles...... sigh so sad.... 😒

Congratulations on getting such a good score!

Don't be discouraged.

Your mum is probably happy in her heart, but because of the competitive spirit of people, she only sees the -10 instead of the +260.

There's very little difference between 260 and 270, trust me.

In secondary school, hard work counts, and a 260 shows that you have the innate intelligence and the capacity for hard work.

Work hard, play hard and do meaningful things in your life.

The next time your mum mouths about the -10 again, tell her \"Ma, it's just -10. Life and school is still a long way to go. A 260 means I am the top 10% already. Don't compare with the Jones all the time\", and she may go like :shock:

😎

260 is a very good score and you got into one of the top schools in Singapore. Don't worry about entering RGS at the COP. How well you did at PSLE is not indicative of how well you can perform in secondary school. I know personally of girls at RGS who entered at under the COP (thru DSA) and who are now doing VERY well. I also know of girls who scored 275+ at PSLE who are now not doing as expected at RGS. You'll be fine. Show your mum that you can do it. πŸ™‚

Likewise, my DD got 260 and she is in RGS. So what if she just made it. Don't know if you love football but look at Tottenham Hotspurs right now, they barely made into the Champions League and now they have already beaten last year's European Champions.

It is all about passion and determination. :rahrah:

Well said...

My DS got 262, in HCI via dsa and now still waiting for appeal result to RI. Thus ignore what others say. Give thanks, stay focused and go for it.
