Idk but as far as I know nw is not allowed but in any case the market might be lenient and give you the mark
:imsorry: -
My friend and I are Both hoping to score at least 260. But that seems impossible now because I have made quite a number of careless mistakes in English (minus around 8 marks) and Math (Paper 1 minus 5 marks; mistakes include reading the protractor wrongly. For Paper 2, I changed my working last minute but did not change final answer so minus A1 and forgot to fill in the graph in 18(a) ). Do I still have a chance to score 260? Iām usually top 10 though.

For the speed question in paper 2, Anyone remember if it is stated the speed needs to be in the form of m/min,not km/h?
Yes, it was stated to give your answer in the form of m/min.
It was in the brackets, I think.

It depends on how you score for Science and Chinese/Higher Chinese. Don't let how you did for EL and MA (EL was kinda hard for me too) discourage you and put your best foot forward for the other exams coming up Wish you the best of luck!

From the way T-score is being calculated, I believe your final results will not be based on the absolute score, but rather on how you fared against the other students who took the same exam. So, it's not as simple as school exams where >90 is A*, >=75 is A, and so on... (if interested, you may check out more details on this site after your PSLE exams: http://www.greatminds.edu.sg/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=89:disclose-t-score-secret&catid=59:great-minds-club&Itemid=91.)
If you've been consistently in the top 10 then I say you'd be fine, just don't be discouraged by past mistakes and focus on doing your best for the next few exams!

Can somebody answer my questions? Thank you
1. How many marks was 18(a) (graph) worth?
2. Is my compo relevant?
My plot:
Three girls made a pact to attend the same secondary school after PSLE, however, one of them (X) was moving. X went to school and pretended to be full of the joys of spring like how she usually was, but inwardly, she was contemplating on whether to tell her friends. In the end she decided to only tell one of them (K) as the other one (J) was very sensitive and and X did not want her to feel hurt.
(I have now answered the questions \"What was the secret?\" and \"Why was it a secret?\" something along those lines)
(the only time I mention the picture): J leaves to get drinks, and seizing this opportunity, \"X looks around, makes sure J is not around, inches closer to K and whispers to her her secret\". K tries to hold back her tears; at this time, J approaches and K runs away sobbing as she is hurt. J is puzzled but X lies to her and says that it was nothing, but X feels guilty. Fast forward (running out of time) X comes to school the next day and J sobs and asks her why she didn't tell her about her moving (K had told J). X comforts her saying that she would visit them and a few weeks later K and J sends X off at the airport.
One of my friends say it doesn't really bring out the theme \"secret\" and I'm really worried. -
Hi Smolbean,
Your compo sounds relevant. Indeed, we sometimes withhold the truth from others in order not to hurt their feelings. That constitutes a secret. Besides, you made the link as much yourself. Please hold your emotions in check now so that you can focus on the papers ahead. Tons to revise for Science and Chinese compo! Good luck for your PSLE! -
