2011 PSLE Discussions and Strategy

Met my DS during the break after paper 1, told me the Math paper 1 is quite easy.
Hopefully paper 2 is also easy for him too. -

Too early to discuss this lah, Maths paper still half-way thru.[/quote]another 35 mins...
Will it equate to higher COP this year? Saw some schools with much lower COP last year.rylee:
[quote=\"Otah\"]BTW, are the P1 - P5 all having school holiday during PSLE period ? I know of some getting their students attend afternoon sessions. But how about those school having double session? Sry OTP.
Tough paper means there will be very high T-scorer (the real super kids, mmm...may be 290+) this yr.

This reminds me of my dd's PSLE Math 2 years ago. That was a tough one. The paper really set apart those who were very good in Math vs those who were average.MummySTay:
I remember 2 years ago when DS had PSLE, he thought he lost about 20 marks for Maths. That year, the paper was very tough! In the end he still got A*. Hopefully, this piece of news will make some parents feel better.
because the paper was tough, the standard deviation is greater, hence those at the top will still get high transformed score (t-score) for the subject, because those not so good will get lesser marks and the high SD separate them far far away
that is also why in a year when the papers are tough, the top scorer tends toward 290 in t-score -
Yes that’s what is needed. Tough paper to raise high t score. Tough papers pls bring it on

my sis found paper 1 easy…
-
that is why the transformed score (t-score) is just a measure of ranking the kids; it is NOT a summation nor an average of the actual marks scored in the PSLE exams
this year's 299 may not have total marks as high as last year's 282
every year's papers may have variation in standard. no valid comparison from year to year. the only valid comparison is within the year / cohort -
