Hi muska,


On a more conservative, realistic side, school Tr told my kid to multiply by either 0.7 or 0.72.

Not 0.75, because 0.75 is a bit high.

So, we take Total of 4 subjects’ (EMS, Mother tongue) Raw score , multiply by 0.7, to estimate roughly the T-score, since we do not have our school’s Std deviation, mean

Is it possible to still score 255 and above if one of the subjects score is 82?

It's still possible depending on the scores of the other subjects.

At least 2 A* for the rest of the subjects for a better chance.

My older kid took her PSLE last year and English isn't her forte, so it's likely she got a low A (high 70's - low 80's) but thankfully she got more than 255 overall as she scored 2 A* for Math and Science, and possibly a high A for Chinese.

With minimum 2A*, one can reach 255.

In order to reach / target 261, via T-score (Non-DSA route) (eg : RGS threshold Cut-off-point), P6 student need to score minimum 3A* ?

Hi parents, may i have a copy of the NY prelim paper too. My email address [email protected].

Thank you for sharing.

I do know of students who scored above 255 with one A*, but I believe the rest of the subjects scored high A nearing A*.


E.g. scenario
Subject 1= 95 (A*), and
Subject 2, 3 and 4 = all 88 (high A*)

Total raw score for 4 subjects = 359
Estimated T-score = 359 * 0.72 = 258

And sometimes 90+ doesn’t guarantee A*, e.g. for easy papers where majority perform well, I heard A* benchmark can be 95 and above.
