Equal number of boys. How many pupils are there in the Band?curiousage:
The choir question, they asked how many pupils are there in the Band? Not band and choir. Im sure about it.
Appreciate if someone can recall and share more on the Band & Choir Qn:
Choir Girls 70%? 30%?
Band Girls 60%? 40%? (My DD remembers seeing 60%)
Qn states: There are equal number of boys in Band & Choir? Or is it: There are equal number of members in Band & Choir? You are supp to find: How many members in Band? or How many members in Choir?
Thanks -

Well said... but I can understand the mentality of students wanting to know how they fared as soon as possible, while it is still fresh in their minds. I'm like that too. It would nag and eat me until I have a burning need to check with my friends how they solved those problems....
Word of advice - Do not look back on what's done and over. Discussing about right and wrong answers given serves no purpose at THIS point of time. It's simply saps your energy, waste precious time, shakes your confidence and disrupts your mental focus on what's left to be accomplished.
...
It works both ways. If they get the same answer as you, it's a massive relief and morale boosting. If they don't and you find that you were wrong, then it is crushing and very depressing. Either way, it can either positively or negatively impact your preparation for the remaining papers.
One way to look at it is that we cannot control our past, but we do have quite a bit of control over our future. If we feel we didn't do well in our past papers, well, there's really nothing we can do about it now. So we had better concentrate, work harder, and prepare more comprehensively to do better in our upcoming papers to make up for the shortfall.
Gambatte, all P6ers! Rev your engines and look forward to conquer the remaining papers! -
Anyone want to start discussing about mother tongue or science now…?
