      my DD just finished her PW today.
      she told me no more A cos her QnA she spoke only 2 mins I/o of 5 mins... 😞

      Don’t worry too much. Mine barely finished 3 mins. As long answer is coherent and elaborated, it should be ok.

      Yup don’t worry, the A does not depend on the length of the QnA.

        My eldest girl failed GP for her promo exams!!! She has GP tuition so far, but she says that the tutor is not so good. Not so easy to find a GP teacher unlike PSLE or O. Can anyone recommend any GP tutor?

          I can recommend Ms. Felicia (The Useful English Tutor), in Toa PAyoh), my boy in JC goes there. but I don't think there are any more slots left because she takes only max 5 students in 1 group. Otherwise you can try bigger centres like the The Learning Lab for their GP tuition

            My dd's GP tutor is at BT Timah. My girl felt he is good. My girl just has just finished her Alevel exam, so \"maybe\" he got slot? :roll:

                    There is No bridging Maths, in any JC

                    A)
                    If your son come from Catholic High (IP), he is already doing Integrated Maths in (IP3 and IP4) years, No need Bridging Maths


                    B)
                    If your son taking O-level National exam,
                    if he is doing O-level (Additional Maths And Elementary Maths) in (OP3 and OP4) years, No need Bridging course


                    OP : O-level program

                        \"KI has a heavy focus on philosophy, specifically, a branch of philosophy called epistemology. It’s basically an area that examines our knowledge of knowledge. In KI, we ask questions like “What is knowledge?”, “How do we get knowledge of something?” and “Is that knowledge valid and how should we use it?”
