Last time when we studied also only use one calculator what. Never bring extra one.

True, but then last time in PSLE - don't need to use calculator. Also no T-score....okie, I better not let the list go on.

Hi everyone, I took the PSLE exam in 2009, and for my year the Maths paper was challenging. My senior in in Sec 3 who took his PSLE in 2008 said the Maths paper was easy. I know the 2010 paper was easy. Hence, I foresee a trend.


2008 Maths- Easy
2009 Maths- Hard
2010 Maths- Easy
2011 Maths- Hard??

Just an idea of what to expect.

Yeah… I think so that 2011 PSLE Math will be tough.

[quote=\"TwaTau\"]DS school actually offer spare calculator if the students' calculator don't work. But we still got DS to check after seeing your post, :thankyou:

I more ks - DS will be bringing 2 calculators along. Electronic gadgets hard to predict......what happen if it decides to \"blank screen\" or \"die\"? I never believe in taking risk during major national exams, so prepare back-up.

by the way, did u have prob fixing calulator back after changing bacteries? I wanted to change but afraid don't know how to fix back. Must use screw driver.[/quote]Hi Verysuperkiasu,
No problems...it's quite straight forward to change batteries....Just unscrew the back panel, change the battery & put the back panel on and screw the screws back.

Yes, I did it. I managed to change it about five mins ago. Kind of wierd to unscrew and see all the wires inside. Was afraid something inside drop out and then cannot use how?...so late where to get another one? :scared:

But thankfully, after changing batteries, can work. Hope tmr still can work. I'm quite paranoid. Thanks, Tinkerbelle!

And last time our parents not so ks like us, and no need for them to be ks too since life is not so complex then :rotflmao:

Already warned my son to be mentally prepared liao so he will not be thrown offguard. I told him to keep calm and try his best to solve. At least get some method marks also good.
