2022 PSLE Discussions & Strategies (born in 2010)

I spoke to a tutor who is a former MOE tr. She heard from her friends that there were some challenging qns that the kids think was easy. These were not among the qns that were discussed or shown on YouTube.


Afew kids in my son’s school, including my son commented that paper 2 was ok but paper 1 was trickier. They didn’t say it was an easy paper. They got AL1 in the end.

Just to add that these were the qns that a lot of kids got wrong, not the ones shown on YouTube.

Most I heard gets an AL much lower. Some students who consistently has AL1 gets a 3 or more.
I still believe there is moderation to some extend even in this new AL system.
Having said that I think I will make an appeal. Though highly likely not going to change anything but just for some closure and move on 😀

If my child consistently scores AL1 in school but only manages to score AL4 for PSLE, I guess I will be shocked too and may request for a paper review.

Can parents get to see the papers when a review is requested? If yes, it would be good as Math is not subjective, straight away you can tell how many marks are assigned unlike English/Chinese papers which have subjective elements in compo/compre.

Like others have shared, it is unlikely to have a different outcome after the review but at least it brings about a closure.

I filled up just one choice and submitted it without issue 👍

I feel the options could have been better but since MOE categorized the languages then I just go ahead with 1 language.

LOL! Malay language is not a bad language to have. It is actually very powerful if he's keen on public/govt affairs and maybe a career in politics
