      Maths Isnt Fun:

      Oh yea, some tips for the kiasu parents out there! For paper 2,after like maybe left 5 mins,ask your child to type down her/his answers on the calculator, separating them with a minus sign. Rmb not to press the equals button! And keep pressing the arrow buttons to avoid the calculator frm auto offing and turn the calculator so that it faces the table or else the invigilator might see it. after leaving the exam hall, quickly write yr answers frm the calculator onto a piece of paper.


      I think I must add a word of caution on this: actually no paper or information is allowed to be taken out of the exam hall. Doing this might jeopardise the student's position even though no cheating or any foul-play was intended.

      DS wanted to do that in order to check his answers with his friends after the paper, but I warned him of the consequences if caught and they decided to go strictly by the book. Remember the kid who took a picture of the front cover of exam paper? He was just being playful but the consequences greatly impacted him. I would say the risk is not worth it, don't attempt!

      woah that serious... :scared: most of my classmates did that and the invigilator saw but didnt even write in a report or anything! also my classmate sitting beside me kept talking to the boy infront of him! thats cheating and the examiner warned him and guess wad he said? he said: I TALKING TO MYSELF!!!! πŸ˜“

        Does anyone know the answer for English PSLE Q)67?

        sentence:The witnesses suddenly disappeared.The detective was puzzled.
        What puzzled the detective_____________________________________.
        is it all right to put- What puzzled the detective was the fact that the witnesses suddenly disappeared.
        πŸ™ that it is correct!

        To me it sounds correct. There can be more than one correct answer.

        at first i wrote that but changed to What puzzled the detective was the witnesses' sudden disappearance.

          2009 MA PSLE was hardest. 2010 MA PSLE was easiest. 2011 MA PSLE in the middle.


          These are the answers for the 2011 MA PSLE Paper 2 from top students in my school [including me] (97 - 100 marks) Method used for most of the questions was ALGEBRA.

          20,17,72,70,125,20%,22,42,357*(NOT 351!!!),5/9,180m2,154,26,13,8,5,56,119,199,17,$4576,$150

          *Asking for chairs at the end check-> 357 Γ· 7(chairs in each row after rearrange) = exactly 51 rows at last
          They said there was extra 12 rows so in the beginning, there were (51-12=39) rows of 9. 351 is the no. of chairs in the beginning!

          Qns. to note.

          - MA Paper 1 Q14. option (1)
          - MA Paper 1 Q30. 4.8

Best is to follow the rules and don't take unnecessary risk. Afterall, paper is over and you cannot change the end results - so what if the answers are correct / wrong? Don't look back and do what is needed now: prep yourself for the next paper.

I wouldn't take the risk if I were you. Even if not caught for cheating some bad remarks written is surely not a nice thing.

                        They planned to go and drink both Koi and Gong Cha and watch Johnny English. :imcool: πŸ˜† πŸ˜†

                        Looks like many students in this cohort will celebrate with Johnny English/MrBean/Rowan Atkinson ! πŸ˜‰ πŸ˜‰

                        Maybe I too should plan for it since DS too is not taking HMT and hence will be free on wed. πŸ˜„
