mjl,
u stated that the GPA may be subjected to moderation, are u only referring to Sec 3 and Sec 4,
or it also applies to Sec 1 and Sec 2.

btw, can i clarify with u, for Sec 1 , is Eng and Literature considered as 2 separate subjects or 1 subject,
as u stated 5 core and 2 other subjects.
TIA

Hi Augmum, GPA moderation applies to all levels but it is not common. English and Literature are 2 separate subjects.

thks for the reply......
so in RGS, eng and lit are considered as 2 subjects
u see, u mentioned 7 subjects, i was thinking what are the 7
becos in my gal's sch (DHS) eng and lit, is known as Language arts which is 1 subject.

so after moderation, what is the normal increase in the final computed GPA, any idea ??[/quote]Hi Augmum,

How many examinable subjects does your dd's school offer?

[quote=\"jtoh\"]Hi mjl, do you know the average GPA score for the Sec 1s and 2s this year? When will these be released? Thanks.

Hi jtoh,

I am new and Singapore PR, my DD had DSA to RGS next year. I had read thru the thread still not clear abt the IP syllabus, hope that you can explain to me

1. How many subjects do the RGS sec 1 students need to take?
2. Science is 1 subject or seprated to 3 papers, bio,chem & phy?

thx very much.

Hi Hans,

The girls take the following subjects in Year 1:
English
Math
Mother Tongue
Biology/Chemistry/Physics*
Literature
History
Geography

(Bio, Chem and Physics are taught and examined separately. One each in each semester.)

Those are the 7 examinable subjects.

Some students may choose to take an 8th examinable subject such as a Third Lang, MEP, SAP, CSP, MSP, RSP etc.

In addition, the girls also take the following subjects: Philosophy, Aesthetics, Speech & Drama, PE... (can't remember what else there is).[/quote]Hi Jtoh,


Thank you for the clear explanation. I understand better now.

You're welcome, Hans. Your dd must be looking forward to RGS next year.

Hi jtoh,

The mean & median GPA scores are normally released during the Principal's talk after the SPM sessions the following June/July.

Hi Augmum,

there are 6 examinable subjects as eng and lit are combined under 1 subject named lang arts.
other subjects are conversational malay, CME, chinese culture, music, art, elective, computing
and life skills (is there anymore ??? i oso can't remember)
these subjects are graded and will reflect in the report book,
but will not be used in the computation of GPA.
