My son said the paper is 2 times harder than his Prelim but he managed to complete all; some cant get correct answers but showed methods; hope to earn some marks. Looks like this paper is generally difficult for most

Same here. My boy completed the paper with time to check. I always tell my kids never to leave blank in exams cos' when you write something, there is still some hope but blank means zero hope. -
my girl also said paper 2 is harder than paper 1 but she already lost some marks in paper 1. None of her classmates cried but she said many left blanks too. really don’t know how to attempt the questions. MOE should review the exam format. to solve 48 questions in 2 over hours is not an easy feat. Let’s hope the whole cohort did not do TOO well and that will bring their T score closer to each other and the kids will not be penalised. concentrate on science and chinese…don’t give up. the best is yet to be…

Lucky its the 2nd paper else all the confidence will be dashed from the start. Just hope 2moro's chinese is easy cos my son is really poor with this subject

My girl said paper 1 easy but lost 4 marks. She tallied answers with her friends.
Paper 2 very difficult, left 2 blanks, minus 7 marks. Her friends commented difficult and some leave blanks. The Malay girl who sat next to her kept scratching face, kick the table, drop pen / ruler coz stressed, can’t do. -

Ya, I noticed that ratio & speed qns are usually very challenging.pinky88:
My boy says its the paper 2 problem sums that is difficult. Abt 2-3 qns not certain. He sounds very disappointed.

one geometry question and one ratio question. Maybe the speed question as well. -
SEAB has to do some evaluations then
are our teachers exposed to the type of difficult questions set in PSLE? Having said that, we just to have move on, life is a learning journey
