Then will the test papers be the same or each elective will be tested differently given that the pace is different.

Your son can still be invited to take the MO elective module if he performed well in the SMO.Hi, today is registration for enrichment modules for Yr 1. I'm quite confused. Any difference between elective and enrichment modules? In sem 1, my DS took Japanese as 3rd Lang and din do well. It seems his score pulled down his CAP. My concern is, is our deduction correction?
Second, my son is not interested in the current enrichment modules offered. I read that these are optional but I do see that they come with modular credits. Is minimum credits required to promote to Yr 2.
Third, DS is keen is Math Olympiad but in Sem 1, he chose Jap and decided not to take Math Olympiad to manage his workload. Now that he is going to drop Jap, he would like to take Math Olympiad. My question is, is MO open to all Yr 1 kids or they must sign up for the MO elective?
The modular system is new and confusing to me.
TIA! -
Is SMO also by invitation? DS did not go for SMO.

It isn't by invitation. According to my daughter, all of them in the class are encouraged to take SMO by their math teacher. -

If they perform well or do badly in their respective MO, will they be switched to a different MO class after the module has completed? Or are they stuck to the same MO module (non external and external)?thgwee:

If your DS is from NUSH, he should have received a letter from school to ask them to participate in SMO Junior, Senior &/or Open. Although it is optional to take all these but you are strongly encouraged to do so by the school.bluebellas:
