2010 PSLE T-score
-
atutor2001:
Agree with you. I think the COP for top IP schools will be slightly higher than last year, maybe back to previous year level. At the same time, due to the easy papers, the highest T-score will be lower than last year.happyluckymom:
Do you think psle 2010 t scores will be high due to papers being easy? Will schools COPs increase then for sec 1 2011?
Easy paper means the TOP T-score will decrease but the COP may increase because there are many students with about the same T-score in the top 75%
Even though easier papers have such effects on T-score, the good students will still score higher than average students, hence it may not be easier for average students to enter their school of choice. It still depends on their relative ranking among the cohort. -

I think the results spread will be closer to that of 2008, ie highest aggregate of <290, maybe about 287/288, and COP for top schools will go up a couple of points. -
4 more weeks to go !!

Anyone knows what is the cohort of this yr 2010 psle,
as the size of the cohort will also play a part in the COP of the sec schs. (wonder how much lower as compared to last year)
as for last year it was 48,500 (if my memory din fail me) -
Should be less this year as year of tiger less babies must be born!!!;)

this year cohort in my estimate is 42k or 43k babies
my DS, born in middle of year exactly, birth cert number is 21xxx -
Will that majorly affect the cop or admissions etc?

Wondering will there be some blur parents go and register at the new 7 IP schools when it should actually start with those currently in P4 and drive the COP up for nothing and their kids still have to take ‘O’ Level.
