SS got Mock test already ? DS2 never tell me, i have not seen the paper... Is it really very tough ? Wonder what will they ask :?[/quote]


I did see the mock test paper of SS, I think it was last Friday's homework if I am not remember wrong. Yes, bit tough, not only remember the basic concept, you need know how to use the concept and do analysis.

My DS2 also get below passing marks for most of his English worksheet & according to him, most of his classmates also the same, so no need to worry :yikes: hope so

Hi parents,


For sci, do we need to go thru all the notes from teacher? Eg..the ones on kinetic energy ...r they tested on those ? There s too much to go thru n we didn't even get to revise at all for the SS n HCL already...Ds has to go for papers without any preparations... :xedfingers:

Btw, did any of your kids said anything abt SS yesterday? My Ds dun wan to tell me anything....
Thanks!

hi drickymummy


DS1 said it was ‘good’. Expecting good score…Hope he wasn’t just trying to please me.

Anyway, it’s over, so I didn’t dwell on it & got him to prepare for today’s Chinese instead.

DS2 came back yesterday and told me out of 26 in his class, 22 got full marks for the Investigation Paper for Maths, lowest being 21/25 marks. The other GEP class got 14 pupils with full marks.
