Nightmares.:
I sometimes post stuffs without thinking too, let's just forget about everything that had happened, all the best for tomorrow!
Sorry, but I was being rude... just sick that everyone judges me. And alright, I posted it without thinking, but you can't say you always think before you say something, no?
...Haiz. sorry Jennifer for being rude. And maybe selfish. Wish your ds the best of luck.화이팅! -

Is it just me, or does your reply sound really rude? :shock:Sspitfire:
[quote=\"Nightmares.\"]
I think I get what you're saying, but I'm not even going to bother deciphering it. Not worth my time and effort. I don't have to convince you that you're wrong. I only need to know that I'm right.

Like wat Jennifer said, some thoughts are better kept to yourself/ourselves.
All e best to you. -

Only 1 difficult question ? ...let's be fair to those pupils who sat for the 2009 Maths paper...ngl2010:
In 2009, there was only 1 difficult question and everybody said the paper is difficult.
My elder boy sat for the 2009 PSLE.
Not sure whether this forum has a 2009 PSLE discussion then, also cant remember how active/inactive I was in such a discussion.
There was the sweets qn that elder boy could not resolve in the exam hall. He said he spent 20 mins staring at the qn. A few hours later, he solved the qn.
Difficult? Maybe not. But the brain power must be exhausted till cant see the light then.
I heard that year, some Nanyang pupils were crying after the Maths paper. Of course, the next day, newspapers were flooded with parental complaints.
If it is only 1 difficult question....
u wont got such an big outcry fr the public....over TV, radio n newsapapers
Where the media interviewed SMO students... BT IP schs' students...teachers n even a Principal...
I rmb there was a teacher who feedback that even the 2-3 marks questions werent easy....need to think hard before solving....
The reason that nowadays P6 pupils/ parents may find those questions Easy is becos ....
They were already \"being exposed\" or even drilled to do such similar questions,
either in schs or enrichment/ tuition centres....hence, nothing difficult...
But such problem sums certainly appeared unfamiliar to the 2009 batch....
What's more to be solved under constrained exam conditions ??
And not to forget ...the 2009 PSLE batch was the guinea pigs...
the 1st first batch who underwent the new change of the Maths format... -
Nightmares is just a 12-year-old. 不要跟小孩子计较la. I like his or her straightforwardness, and doesn’t pretend to be humble, just like how a 12-yr-old should be. He or she is proud that he or she is excellent in Maths and does not hide his or her being proud of it. As a child, perhaps asking him or her to contain such feelings may be a tall order. I am sure most of us were not more mature than him or her when we were that age.

Does it mean that 2009 is the year where Primary School Maths became so difficult? -

The above must be the reasons why elder boy's brain was fried before the end of the paper.

Hear only the good stuff.
Ignore what the tuition teacher said.
