Thanks junrahmat, do you know where to get Lit papers? Are they available on these online sites too?

[junrahmat]

You're welcome Chengg.


For Lit, it depends on which text you're looking at as different schools are using different text. Most of the time, you can google them, for example for animal farm, this website might be useful:

Hope this helps

Dear Frenz,

The Secondary 1 CA1 assessments are around the corner. Kindly help in getting past test papers (for neighbourhood schools)...Miss Koh's website has only Maths & Science.

Pls suggest some assessment books & websites for us, new comers.

Thanks a ton!

Shouldn't which school's papers also matter? I was told it's a mixture of neighbourhood schools' pprs. Ths may not meet the standards of higher standard schools.

Other than History, they have bundled 4 others subjects - English, Maths, Geography, Chinese and History. Mid and Final year papers; so its a quite a lot of value. The papers give a good 'feel' of the what are the type of questions and 'how' questions are phrased in exam papers. Esp knowing 'how' questions are asked/worded is really helpful; u can focus on giving the answers and not 'waste' time figuring out what is the question asking. :?

Yes, there are history assessment and exam papers but they are pointless. History, unlike Maths or even English has no standard answers. Answer keys in these assessment are usually insufficient.


While difficult and more expensive, it makes more sense to hire a History tutor for your child. For one, they can mark the History essays & SBQs as well as explain to your child the many techniques.

What is the difference between narrating a point and elaborating & showing an example of a point? What is the difference between lifting a point and inferring from a point? How do I actually Elaboration, and evaluate a point?
