I think this year's highest t-score will be slightly higher than last year's.

Hi wtc, why did you think that the T score is higher this yr?

I think the ministry would have learnt from last year's experience that the papers were far too easy leading to very close t-scores differentiated by decimals. Although this year's papers were seemingly easy, there were tricky questions. I think it'll lead to a slightly broader range of t-scores. I may be wrong. Just my thought.

2007 was the year of killer papers, a year when top students cried after the math paper. I think it resulted in higher t-score.

2009 was too a killer Maths paper...2010 was easypesy... that prompted in 2011 , it will be killer also.

It turnedout , since 2010 , Maths papers are relatively easy

In my definition, I wouldn't say this year's was easy.
