          My friend's DD's pte tutor said only 30% of the Chemistry syllabus is covered in J1 and the balance will be taught in J2. :nailbite: Is this true? How about the other subjects in general?

                I suppose your DC is coping very well. It's already a struggle for DD in J1. Can't imagine what it would be like in J2 if the workload is much heavier and everything must be covered by June before start of revision.

                    You should check with your child's school teacher before getting worried over something a tutor says.

                      I see. I think it's quicker to get an answer from this forum. From my experience over these 11 years, not all teachers are accommodating and some are even mean. I don't want myself or DD to be a laughing stock. If you know what I mean.

                        Sieg:

                        Yeah. Neighbour's DD from TJC obtained S to D grade and hardly a C in JC exams but gotten straight As, except for GP, for 2014 A level exam.
                        Yr neighbour 's DD must have put in tremendous effort to buck up in J2 to get all As n 1 B for her A level exams...
                        It is NOT a norm for pupils getting D to S ( S grade 35-44 ) would jump to A grades in A level exams...Pls \"dont mistake\" it as a norm...

                        A jump of 2 grades ( for some cases 3 grades) is a more realistic expectation ....
