Chinese is 关心朋友。seems easy but limited things to talk. English not too sure yet.

which means tomorrow's Chinese oral topic could be on 公共场所？

Thanks ! Actually that’s what I heard about aggregate t score computation too bec the school shared. However what I wasn’t sure about is whether A* is 91 and above or could potentially be lower because of the bell curve.

[myteapot]

I would think that if the individual subject T-score is computed based on the formula, then there will be no "full 100 marks" to speak of, in which case, the A* grading of 91 will not be applicable. Unless the subject grading is independent of the subject T-score, which I don’t think so. Does this make sense?

English is using the context of writing poems to teachers for teacher's day celebration to discuss the topic of showing gratitude.
Chinese video is on helping others but the third question reveals the topic of friendship.

@myteapot - yes I think it makes sense but we have seen kids with high T score but one or two A* so I was wondering if it's because the grading is independent :). Note moe' answer in the FAQ was \"objective standards\"
