      I wandered why this thread active when PSLE all over ...

      Now its the time for parents to :nailbite:
      worrying about the weather, the feng shui of the marking centres, the numerlogy of the teachers name, šŸ˜‰


      Chill :celebrate: Mummies and Daddies...

            the score is it confirmed confirmed to be 200??.. :roll: 🤷


            Yes, I confirmed it is 200. But my boy can be unpredictable.

            Not all schools is 200. Dunman and Hwa Chong is 240, unless ur DS applied for another school.

              Maybe 2 days to mark and 2 days to double check hor.. Just wonder they need how many teachers to mark one subject paper :roll:


              Assuming around 44000 students who took PSLE.
              If one teacher marks 100 papers per day also need around 500 teachers per subject.

              If the same set of teacher mark for all the 4 days, then 100+ teachers should be enough per subject, ie if one teacher marks 100 papers per day as per ur assumption.

              Wanted to post a reply earlier, but was shopping, then conveniently forgot.
              Each teacher does not mark an entire script by himself/herself, except composition. There is specialization involved so each teacher usually marks a few questions. Experienced upper primary teachers are usually paired up to mark questions with higher level of difficulty, n vice versa. That means in one day, a teacher may mark 250-300 scripts. Mentally and physically very draining.

                    CO for RI n RGS means only need to pass n go express stream, which is 200. I recall coming across one child who got WL from HCI, n requirement was need to score 250.

                      Doubt they will do that.
                      Now they are like practically begging people to accept the CO, or those with HCI waitlist to put them as first choice.
                      Even making phone calls to the top 50 on the WL telling them it's as good as CO.

                        That was two years ago, maybe things are different this year, with so many boys choosing RI over HCI, from what I have read in the posts here.
