this is also what i thought it should be.
bonus pts comes in handy when stud A versus stud B with same score. then the want wif bonus pts win?

As someone pointed out before, the T score is calculated up to many decimal places.
So unlikely 2 students will have exactly same T score that need bonus points to separate them.
It's more like a bonus for students to get into SAP school.

On the other hand, what's the advantage of taking other HMT subjects since the bonus points can't be used for SAP school ?

if you pass your HMT at O level, you don't ever have to touch HMT in JC; and the O level HMT is good for NUS admission criteria purpose

... I think all parents here at KSP are trying to be helpful as much as we can. Thanks v m for info but I dont know why DD's school principal explained it the way she did, she even made it a point to highlight that we must meet the COP 1st...strange....

Maybe she wasn't very good at putting her point across... Or she herself is confused.

[quote=\"ngbrdad\"]Took out DS1's NDS to charge last night.

Luckily still managed to find it after I hid it away many months ago.
He still needs to wait in school till after 11+ to come home with his little brother though.

Btw when is the PSLE marking break ?

17oct-20oct

Then how come this Fri is a school holiday ?[/quote]It's children day. You may recall as it was announced last year that children's day will no longer be on 1st Oct just so p6 students can celebrate their last year of children's day after psle exams. That is why PSLE is brought forward wef this year.

she can google around and see how other schools put it across / explain it

many schools do post it on their websites

Ds said the paper is not vry difficult bt harder than his schl's prelim. However, there were many thinking questions in the paper and he had only 5 mins to check. Luckily he completed the paper... Some of his classmates failed to complete the whole paper.
