Is PSLE so important?

Mwahahaha XD:

Hi once agn, am i 'eligible' to dsa academics if i didnt done so well in p5sa2, p6ca1 but did extremely well in p6 sa1?

Based on your rapid improvement, I think if you continue to work hard you will be able to make it into RGS or a school of your choice based on your PSLE scores. As Chenonceau said, it's not easy to get into RGS through DSA. Is there an academic domain you're thinking of applying under? For eg are you exceptionally talented in Math, English, Science or Mother Tongue? If not, then you might want to just focus on your PSLE. Good luck!

[Mwahahaha XD]

THX EVERYONE for your encouragement! I am always very worried of my studies... Since p4, my studies has been improving rapidly but since p5, i realised my result have been dropping from 90+ to 70+. and now p6 sa1 i realised i did quite well and my tchr encouraged me to give it a shot because even if i am not shortlisted for the first round when they get my results, i can take the GAT (general ability test) and she also said that i stand some chances because i have several certificates of distinction like IvP or storytelling competition. But since mayb i do not stand high chance, i think i should just focus on PSLE. THX SO MUCH EVERYONE

[jtoh]

Mwahahaha, you have a great attitude. A certificate of distinction in IvP is very good. Do you have any other certs or achievements in Science? If you do, you may want to consider applying under that domain.

Hi All,


Since everyone here is talking about how the school results affects DSA, I want to know what results are considered good, Eng and Chin: above 85 or must have 90+, Sci and Math: these two subjects must score 95 or above, right?

And I also want to know when we fill in the DSA form, we should provide ca1+sa1(100%) or just sa1 (70%)?

Thanks.

[Mwahahaha XD]

Hi meimeitan. A* (91above) for all the subjects is the best.

[meimeitan]

Wah! No need to apply lah! My dd’s results are even not more than 85. Keep her eyes on PSLE lah!

Hi, all


I'm taking my PSLE this year (2011). I am very good at Science (as in top- scorer in class... Ermm... I do not mean to be boastful...), my Math is not bad but I need to train myself with challenging questions which I am doing now. As for my English, I am good at oral and composition. My Chinese composition is good but my oral and comprehension are bad.

Should I use my Math and Science grades to pull me up as I am good at these 2 subjects or should I try to improve my EL/MT in time?

Opinions please!! :?:

Thank You

My opinions is that its not easy to score well in the Paper 1 (compo.) and you are in fact good to have this advantage.

I would say all these are your As cards (Maths, science etc) but same time you can also put in effort to buck up those weaker area (since still have time) so as to act as bonus that can improve your grade further.

Just my 2 cents thought

In PSLE T-score, all subjects are equal weightage. That is why you need to ensure all subjects are taken care of. Putting your eggs in 1 or 2 baskets is never a wise choice.

Try to improve on the chinese oral. It makes up 25% of Chinese Paper. You also have to ensure that the other weak subjects are not too poor.
