[quote=CCK2008 post_id=2040602 time=1633325046 user_id=26004]Well, I am very sure the COP will be the same as last year. The 4 top schools will still be RI/RGS, HCI/NYGH. They are still the ever-popular dream schools. In fact, they are also the top schools when I was taking PSLE some 35 years ago. Unfortunately, my PSLE was not good enough to get into them, but my children succeeded.

MGS IP(IB) was AL6 in the simulation whereas NYGH was AL7(M). Similarly, ACSI IP(IB) was AL7, basically the same as HCI AL7(M).

Personally, I won't be surprised if this group keeps running at the same AL COP or if the two IP(IB) schools are ranked higher. Maybe we will still see the higher scoring kids flock to RI/RGS, HCI/NYGH just because they are popular by public opinion. However, it is also possible that there is an actual difference in preference among students (SAP or not, IB or not) and that the two different scoring systems just spit out different answers as to which is \"harder\" to get into. Specifically, some t-scores at HCI and NYGH could have been boosted by extremely high scores in CL (if you believe MT is the subject with the lowest average). But in the new system there is no difference 90 vs. 100 and 90 is 90 regardless of what the subject average is. Of course, high CL scores wouldn't be applicable to all students who entered via PSLE and it is hard to say how much this could have impacted things at the COP.

In terms of T-scores we know that MSG IP is usually around 3 to 4 T-score lower than RGS and RI etc. However, in terms of 2020 AL COP, they are now the same at AL6. This mean student can no longer rely on 1 or 2 strong subjects to push up their achievement level.

One important question parents should ask during the webinar is based on a simulation done for 2020, how many applicants would have to go through balloting. e.g. if COP was AL6, how many students have AL6.
And this should give parents an indication of the risk in the balloting.[/quote]Don't forget RI/RGS, HCI/NYGH are pure IP schools, all 12 classes are all IP. None is O level track. MGS has 4 class IP and the rest O level. Most students in RI/RGS, HCI/NYGH are ESIS students, that is why you seldom see them in edusave award ceremonies.

如果评分准则没有格外严格，还是有机会得到一点（”同情“）分数的， 因为可以（勉强）解读为那位阿姨是出自于真心想要帮他。

我认为应该没问题。慷慨应该也会被接受。

谢谢您！

Is there any approximate "conversion formula" between T score and AL?

No. No direct conversion.

your Psle raw score will determine your AL score

老师，这道题两分，写一个特征够吗？ 还是得写两个？

不客气！
嗯，我的补习班针对小四到中四而设。

Sarah_2021,
如果题目只占2分，那么一个特征就足够了（特征1分，说明1分）。

那如果是4分？回扣2分吗？[/quote]如果是4分，那分数分配不是【特征1，说明（证据）3】，就是【特征2，说明（证据）2】。

因此我们都会教导同学们先回到篇章，重温和人物相关的时间然后进行评论。

如果能够找到两、三个证据来说明那1个特征，那么写1个特征就没问题。要是故事中的不同事件或细节突出了多过一个性格特征，那就会扣2分，因为分析进行得不够深入。
