Hi Chief, In the T Score reporting , there are 3 scores that seem suspicious


Maha Bodhi 300
St Gabriel's 300
Pioneer Primary 290

All fake and should be removed...theoretically, it is not possible to achieve 300 T-score...since T score looks at relative performance and not raw score.

Dear All,


I would like to seek advise on the issue. My boy obtained 3A and 1A* and T-score of 231. His friends also achieved 3A and 1A* but had a T-score of 253 and 257.

How is it possible for the big difference in T-score despite getting the same grades? Anyone can advise on this issue?

Simple...Your boy's 3As probably low As while his friends As are high A, the range is pretty wide. My boy's friend 3A* & 1A T score is still lower than my son's 2A* and 2A.

hi,

Am getting conflicting advice from friends and friends of friends...

If DS got 257, would it be \"risking his chances of getting into Anderson\" if we put RI (cop: 261) as 1st choice and Anderson (cop: 247) as 2nd choice?

Looking at the high t-scores in this batch, RI likely COP will be >260.
You can still put RI as 1st choice.

Posting is by merit, not by what choice you put. So your DS will still be ahead of another child who puts Anderson as 1st choice but t-score of 256.xxxxxx .

But I am puzzled why your 1st and 2nd choices' COP is so wide?

If you are looking at Bishan-AMK area, why not put something in between eg Catholic High School whose COP is somewhere between RI and Anderson. My DS is in CHS. It is a good school, and the IP programme COP last year was 253. So your DS stands a good chance of entering.

Unless you are not a Chinese, or your DS did not take Higher Chinese and has reservation about going to a SAP school?
Don't worry. There are also non-Chinese there, and there are students who did not take Higher Chinese in Pri Sch, but able to cope when in CHS.

Hi timtim, I heard it is theoretically possible for aggregate score to be greater than 300.

Hi,

I am wondering does anyone know when is this year PSLE Exam Release Date and when will the secondary posting be made known to us and date of secondary school registration/reporting date.

We are planning our year end holiday between the 2nd week of Dec (i.e from 12th Dec) until Christmas and we are wondering if our dates will be affected.

Thanks for any update.

Belle = Mdm Soon? :evil:

You should insert an intro/header on that microsite (not here in this thread) to explain to reporters what you're culling, e.g. need to include HMT points or not?

I thought the fields on the right are SEARCH fields for querying previous years' top scores, so I randomly searched for TNS 2014 and guess what? My butter fingers keyed in \"0\" and it's there now. There's no edit button nor prompt for confirmation.

Can you separate 2016 list from others?


Some schools might just produce a one hit wonder once in a blue moon, so it's not representative of that school's standard. It's however useful to know the % of students who scored above 250, as Mdm Soon has rightly opined. That vital info will help parents estimate the no. of potential contenders vying for some coveted IP schools in the 250-258 region (a limbo region).

This article is darn sad if true

Don't worry. There are also non-Chinese there, and there are students who did not take Higher Chinese in Pri Sch, but able to cope when in CHS.

Is it possible for a non-Chinese (Malay or Indian) to apply to Catholic High?

Sun, ever used the above? Think it does have most of what you are looking for.

Thanks Funz.

I couldnt get this when i google earlier early this year. Probably because I use the term cut off point or COP in my search. :slapshead:
