Hi, finders keepers,

May I know whether students allow to use the English dictionary for the PSLE English test ? Thanks.

[TheAnswer]

There is no perfect publisher. Their answers are not perfect. Sometimes even with typo errors.

No English dictionary. But can bring chinese electronic dictionary though. Specific models only.

I must have been lucky. I had a mid morning meeting and decided to buy lunch for my boys. When I dropped by Popular, the books were all laid out in stacks and I bought the four subjects with no trouble at all. It is only $4 per subject, no need to consider so much. I spent much more on other stuff.

I only had a quick glance through two subjects, and the papers look very reasonable though some careful reading may be required. I personally think it really shows that PSLE is overhyped (now at least, there were past papers with impossible sums). A good sleep and a clear mind on the day should be more valuable than weeks of cramming beforehand.

Need to buy? DD told me the school is getting for them. Math & Science only $1.80. Eng and Chi cost a bit more.

Same thing?

DD also said school will be getting but some of her classmates have already bought. I didn’t bother to go buy since I remember from ds’ PSLE year that the school purchased for his batch.

2012-2014. Should not have to buy again.

DS form teacher messaged all parents not to buy as the school will buy for the kids.
