Hi! I didn’t know it’s possible to get 4A* with less than 270 t-score! Thanks for sharing!

Lol

Amazing isn't it?

The other kid scored 272 with 4A*

I think Tscore depends on how well the whole cohort does for that particular year.

[phtthp]

Yes,

It depend on the performance of the entire Psle cohort, for that particular unique batch (year).

it will depend on how challenging the 4 subjects have been set by SEAB, for that particular psle batch (year) sat for

I think Tscore depends on how well the whole cohort does for that particular year.[/quote]I’ve heard that the A/A* are from raw scores. So if you had above 91, it will give u an A*. However the t-score is not taken from raw scores and it takes into account how well the cohort does.

Would like help with the below question:

Thanks in advance!

Muthu could not remember where he *had* placed his Science file.

If you want to use “has”, then the sentence should be:
Muthu cannot remember where he has placed his Science file.

More grammar queries:


a）Serjit must have trained very hard to ____________ the record for the 200 metres so easily.
1) break\t\t2) broke\t\t3) breaking\t\t4) have broken\t\t

*Is the answer (1) or (4)? Kindly explain the rationale as well.


b) Are the below sentences grammatically correct?
“My uncle has loved travelling since he was a teenager,” Raju shared at the table.

“My late uncle had loved travelling since he was a teenager,” Raju shared at the table.

Thanks!

[zac's mum]

a) (4) have broken.


Sorry can’t explain the rationale.

b) yes to both.

b) yes to both.[/quote]

Thanks Zac's Mum, appreciate your help!

Intuitively, I thought the answer should be ”have broken\" as well but like you, I'm not sure the grammar rules underpinning the answer too. :frustrated:

[my_melody92]

Hi. For qn 18 and qn 20 the ans key states (2) and (3) respectively.

Why is it (2) disguise? Disguise means alter the appearance...

And qn 20, why is it not (4) zeroed in on?
Thanks alot!
