Just to add, my daughter takes HMT and we were briefed earlier by principal that the bonus pts for HMT grade is applicable to SAP school application only if your child meets the cut off point for that school. Say if COP for SAP school X is 260 and your child's score is 260 and scored a distination, then his/her agg score is 263. If your child's score is 259, then the 3 bonus points cant be used and his/her score remains at 259. Hope this is helpful as many parents are not aware of this criteria. Cheers !

Somehow doesn't make sense right ?
You take HCL for the bonus points to get into SAP schools.
If your t score is 259 and the COP is 260, precisely that's when the bonus points come in handy right ?
if the bonus points only count if you meet the COP, then what's the use of it ?

Read somewhere that the bonus points only work if the student is within top 30% of the cohort or has a minimum t score of ?250.
I think this make sense.

Bonus points can only be used for those within top 30% and applying to SAP schools. Prior to 1999, bonus points were only applicable to those who were in the top 10%. In 1999, the bonus points scheme was extended to those in the 11-30%. There is no stipulation of having a minimum T-score of 250.

If I am not mistaken, it is a common assumption that the top 10% T-score is around 250.[/quote]


How about top 3% score and top 1 % score ? Any idea ? :scratchhead:

Intermezzo:

DD says paper was ok.. she had about 30 min left for checking..


For the Shadow question her answer is Circle, because the size of the steel ball is larger than the square cardboard (according to the diagram).. she also says the same thing as some others here : If you just draw lines on the diagram, you can see.

For the Photosynthesis question her answer is Lack of carbon dioxide. According to her, the plant is placed IN water, so there should not be a lack of water.
Plants do give out carbon dioxide during respiration, but the amount of CO2 they take in for Photosynthesis is much larger than what they emit during respiration.

just hope she's got the right answers ~

My DD put circle too...She gave the same explanation.

vlim:

My DD says is a square....

Ds answer is circle..just' draw the lines'... Tts what he says.. :roll:

But if you draw the lines to the screen, still can't see the circle coz the light is blocked by the square (circle is within the square). so it's square rite? unless i read the question wrongly.[/quote]

How did you manage to see the question ?
