[quote=\"hashroop\"]DS2 last CA1 paper is on thur. Told him CA1 is just the icing. Real serious stuff is yet to come.

Hi hashroop,
Oh...your DS is having his CA1 this week?? That's earlier than ours by 1 week. Hope he had sufficient time to prepare for it. DD is still ploughing thru her pile of work so hopefully we can squeeze some time out for some revision this week...keke. Good luck to your DS with his CA1. :celebrate:

Hashroop,

That's pretty early. DS is having his CA next week. Hardly have time to do any top school paper and the pile is still staring at him on the table quite \"untouched\" :stupid:[/quote]Yup its true that DS2 CA starts early, but I guesse, this could probably be a way for teachers to gauge and pick up students' weakness in certain topics/subject so that more focus could be done on these weak areas.
My dining table too has piles of exam papers/assessment books/guide books staring down at him. Ive always reminded him that its a buffet spread on the dining, pls feel free to tuck in anything he feels like having. He can start with English compo as a starter, science as the main course and maths as desert!

I have no doubt my DS will be most happy to do that.

Maybe we should start top school SA1 papers immediately after CA1 :!: ....afterall that will give them more time to do!

Would love to start this buffet spread but hubby would most probably be very shocked and cross not to be able to see his dining table top and we have to eat our meals on the floor :!:

Wow!! Grade 7 ......Very impressive! Your DS can DSA with that, can't he? Heard from friends that some sec schs have MEP that allow students to DSA with a minimum of Grade 5 for piano. :lol:

Which schools? I haven't quite heard. Actually the minimum requirement for MEP is quite low. Only grade 3 theory and grade 4 practical. Some MEP schools will have selection trials, but not all.

My p6 boy is not very sure about doing MEP bc I think the theoretical aspect probably doesn't sound too exciting to him. But my elder boy does well in it and this very elective keeps his GPA high each term.
