MCQ reduced to 56 this year? it's likely to reduce to 50/50 because that's what daughter's teacher told the class last year. so this year's batch still get to enjoy a little.this year sci paper is 56 for MCQ, 44 for OEQ.
Actually sci MCQ also not easy
... when i go thru the qns, always has 2 answer almost the same. and need to check guide book to confirm :?
MCQ isn't easy but it's definitely easier to score compared to open ended. it's so hard to get 1 mark from an open ended question. -

Can share what are the list of top schools? -

And booklet B open ended questions, always very confusing on how to answer the key word correctly.. left only 3 weeks, how to further prepare DS to do better in his SCI paper? His Sci prelim result is not so good

Anybody whose kids are skipping school after prelim? Any thoughts on this?

not sure if PSLE will such strict marking -
thank you xn_mummy.
-
xn_mummy, maybe you can get your child to go through the prelim papers again? Revised those incorrect questions?
-
hi
yes, will have to go thru when the paper is returned. -
Pri Science now is like A'level Sc, albeit easier.
Nothing much from the school textbook, but a lot on analysis and applications.
For MCQs, they like to ask 1). A and B are true 2). A and C are true 3). All the above all true :rotflmao:
The answers are all very close. I guess the child needs to remember and understand the concepts before applying what he/she has learnt.
After going through DD1's Science prelims papers I notice DD1 lost marks for the P3/P4 part. Perhaps we focused too much on the P5/P6 topics. That's why we spent the past few days revising lower pri Science.
