        Would that be available in the S1 posting guide to be given out by the primary schools after PSLE? At least can view the COP for NT, NA and Express for each sec sch.....
        I all info shoould be available in that book, since it is the one given out by MOE(MOE takes care of all kids rt and not just the bright ones). BTW we can also find the info online at http://app.sis.moe.gov.sg/schinfo/SIS_AdvSearch.asp
        Just as a random search I looked up Ahmed Ibrahim school. For NA the COP is 179 and for NT the COP is 134. Hope that helps those looking for this kind of info.

          PSLE is these few days, so pls do not panic and made the kids worry. You have to give her more confidence now.

          Plan to revise major concepts and pointers with her for each subject. Highlight common errors she made or potential pitfalls. Also teach her some strategies to do each paper well. Eg. for MCQ type of question, use elimination technique.

          Good luck to your DD and your fren's DD for PSLE.

            Agree with pen88. We need to be in supportive mood and not panic overself. My stratey is to be like a paddling swan. Its OK to :frustrated: :stompfeet: :rant: here on KSP, but we should not let it rub on our kids.

                You need the mean and SD of the cohort to calculate the T score.

                  some schools will explain to parents (during the P6 meet) and even demonstrate to students (from top classes?) how it can be calculated. You need to know the mean score of cohort to arrive at individual aggregate. Students' raw scores alone are not enough.

                  If having to choose between Exp/ NA, i would rather my child opt for NA. That way, the child is placed at top of NA students and higher chance of getting into school of choice (provided the school has NA)

                  I really wouldnt want scores between 200 to 225 or thereabouts, cos really not much choice schools- thats just my personal opinion.

                  Then again, i really want the child to make the best of the years in secondary school. The exam at the end of secondary education is more critical than PSLE.

                      HCL points are only applicable to top 30% of cohort. As to cut off of this top 30%, I'm not sure of the COP.

                      But if you intend your DD to go to a SAP school, I believe HCL foundation will help her in sec sch years.

                        HCL scores are only useful if you're applying to SAP schools. If you score distinction, you can add 3 bonus points to your PSLE score, +2 for merit etc. So if adding the bonus points to your dd's PSLE score helps to get her into a SAP school, it'll help even if her score is <250. There are some SAP schools whose COP is <250.
