May I ask how did you derive the sd and average?
Estimation for psle score: 50+10(r-a/sd)
Sd:20
Average:65
You should be able to calculate ur psle score with this formula -

No, you wonβt. Writing statements is not necessary. I didnt write any statements as well.
Will u be penalized for not writing statements -

I would personally say both were easy but it depends on the individual I got 94 for prelim math so I would say psle maths paper was easy but if you didn't understand the concepts properly then you may view the paper differently
So this yearβs English Paper 2 is not so easy, Math is manageable but not so easy?? -

how did you do it? I feel like 300 is a bit large imo[/quote]Shaded area = 165
hi, if i'm not wrong about which question it was, i put 300sywtj\" post_id=\"1997102\" time=\"1601626101\" user_id=\"188688:
[quote=moohoo post_id=1997096 time=1601625671 user_id=97665]Anyone remember the answer for the paper 2 question 5 about squares?

Therefore, 22u = 165
1u = 7.5
Total square= 40u
Answer = 40Γ7.5= 300.
Hope my daughter told the correct questions...
My daughter do wrongly as she found unshaded =23 π hope for method mark! -

My daughter do wrongly as she found unshaded =23 π hope for method mark![/quote]After someone told me the value for the shaded I realised I also got 300 π
I did it using different units tho
4u = whole figure
2u = half of it
2u/5 = 0.4 = 1 top rectangle
2u/4 = 0.5 = 1 bottom rectangle
3 top rectangles = 0.4 x 3 = 1.2
2 bottom rectangles = 0.5 x 2 = 1
Shaded rectangles of top and bottom = 1.2 + 1 = 2.2
1u = 165/2.2 = 75
4u = 75 x 4 = 300 -

I use 40u as whole figure while you use 4u.
Is same method. π -

yes; it might not be entirely accurate if you don't mind me saying so LOL

I thot there was one pattern question, Q15, on the ring.
Hopefully your DD didn't miss the plot...how come the good student found it difficult and your DD said manageable
