If your school set easy papers in P6 Prelim subjects, then naturally the Prelim mean (average) for 2021 P6 cohort will be highSG_KP1\" post_id=\"2039454\" time=\"1632622851\" user_id=\"188234:
Thx. “Rank position” smells a lot like T score system. But I don’t have a better suggestion, so…Additional changes to who can take the national exams and more details about special considerations for PSLE scores. Hope no one has to deal with this. Good luck!

If you are targeting AL 8,
so that
you can take Sec 1 3rd foreign languages in (German, Japanese, Spanish, French),
then,
each of your 4 subjects must acquire at least minimum an AL 2, or better. That is, at least acquire 85 marks & above, in each of your 4 PSLE subjects.
Because
If you score AL 9 overall, Sorry, MOELC will Not allow you to take above named foreign languages specified.
Why ?
because
AL 9 is actually Tscore 24x, BELOW 250 -
Just FYI there’s a good number of students who qualify for 3rd language but don’t want to take it. So they don’t have to. Actually quite smart cos the attrition rate is v high.

Yes that is right. I know many who qualify but dont take. If there is no interest, why take? I dont subscribe to, “try first, drop when you dont like”. You can spend the time pursuing other things that interest you.

My observation is if a student signs up with the mindset \"I can always drop,\" he/she will never put in the time that is required and the class will become so difficult it is not even fun to go to (plus makes your schedule one day per week extremely long/other work constrained). Hence, end up wasting 6 months to 1 year when could have been doing something more productive. In contrast, if you sign up and treat it like a compulsory subject then you will figure out and make time for what needs to be done to survive. But as you point out, there's no reason to get yourself into this unless you truly have interest (it's not compulsory). My sense is many of the kids that make it to the O Level exam either a) had an underlying interest in the language before the S1 option forms were issued or b) have some cultural ties to the country (one parent, family lived there previously, etc). Most others will fall to the natural hazard rate of the subject(s) (probably something like a half-life chart :rotflmao: ).

I do commend those who make it to the end. It is not easy given all of the other time demands in secondary school... -
