[quote=\"ksi\"]Ruyu, do you mean from P1 to P5, you get full marks for all subjects except English?

for maths i get full marks or 99 or 98. Science out of the 9 papers i got 7 full marks and 2 90++ mt the written full marks for everything i know

Thanks Ruyu. I am talking about report book marks which is 100 marks for each subject. Written paper for languages is still possible to score full marks but it is the overall which is broken down into so many components. Maths expected can still do 100 cos it is objective paper so is science I assume though I am not exposed to science yet for this generation's marking scheme.[/quote]science possible to get 100 if you have the science tips and facts at your finger tips. I watch dicovery channel national geographic channel and history channel on my free time instead of those junk cartoons or movies. I think it will improve science

I get full marks (I still have my report book to show 100/100) for my P6 Prelims for Science, so it is possible to get full marks for Science. Those days I read the Science \"Teacher's Guide\" so I am ahead of the others.

Last year, my student gets 3A* (E/M/S) and B (Mother Tongue), his aggregate is only 240, go to neighbourhood sec school only.

Here are some observations after 3 exams:

P1 SA1
Honeymoon exam, all subjects full marks seem possible even with Oral

P1 SA2
More serious exam, score full marks for 3 papers still possible but getting tougher.

P2 SA1 onwards
Languages impossible to score full marks anymore with all components added up, only Maths possible.

Is this true of your school?

any data in mind what is the probability to get full marks for all subjects for the above levels?

Why not?

Believe quite a handful, with some worse than a B grading. Otherwise, you will not heard of parents pressuring the Minister to reduce the weightage of MT.

The minister made such a 'big' mistake in announcing the reduction in the weightage and then retracting his words.

You will need to work hard on your 'B'. Practice makes perfect.

Hard work + Good luck.

Actually I don't know. But my thinking is that full marks at lower primary is required because the teachers want to ensure the children build their foundation well so trick questions would be rare. So every subject there should be a fair number of kids with full marks at that level. As they move up the levels I expect this becomes tougher but just want to determine when it starts to be truly difficult to score full marks every subject for most schools.

MOE will slowly do away with exams for P1 and P2.


\"At lower primary (Primary 1 and 2), when students are just beginning school, a key focus should be placed on building pupils’ confidence and desire to learn. In these early years, too much emphasis on formal semestral examinations may not be the optimal way to achieve these outcomes. A better approach would be to use assessment to support and improve learning. As such, the Committee recommends that MOE consider using “bite-sized” modes of assessment, such as topical tests, to provide regular feedback on pupils’ learning to parents. MOE should also train teachers to use a range of appropriate assessment techniques and tools to provide parents and pupils with better feedback on their progress.\"
