Dropping in once again to wish everybody all the best! But also remember to take care of yourself, and don’t stress so much - because PSLE is not life, it is only part of life; marks can be changed, your health cannot. I am not your child, but if my mother were to be sacrificing her health for me to succeed, I would tell her - no - it’s just not fair to her. Also remember that life is a journey, and PSLE is not the end - there are still many more major exams, scholarship interviews, job interviews - and if we tell ourselves to work to enjoy tomorrow all the time, we will never enjoy. Make PSLE revision a sustainable lifestyle. If your don’t usually carefully calibrate your child’s diet, then there’s no reason to do so now. If you cannot live for a long time with this amount of stress, then just cut down. We are not preparing for life, we are living life. Think of what you want your life to be. Most things, in retrospect, especially after having gone through them - are not as important as they first seem. Also, being over worried tends to be the recipe for disaster. There is nothing much you can do now. Remember that you have done your best, you and your child, and it will be alright. Whatever it is, work on from there. It’s okay, it really is.


Also, just a personal anecdote. I took the PSLE two years ago. Then, we were also piled with paper after paper. I wasn’t very motivated - I rushed all the papers before morning assembly, I did those same questions over and over again in large quantities - but in retrospect, I did manage to learn that way. I did little of my own revision, my parents were completely hands off, and I had no tuition whatsoever. So maybe the school system is not that bad, and it worked for me. In fact, the thing is if nobody tells us that this work is too much, if everybody else is going through and surviving, it is a fact that we will too, this if you can do this I can also do attitude - and all these, rushing, fast-speed doing of papers, we take it one step at a time and we finished the layers and layers of papers we were given, and it did pay off. You will be surprised about what people can accomplish - far more than what we think we can. And completing that vast amount will not be crippling, and it will help. There are many roads that lead to Rome - and I’m just saying that this way works too, in a sense, so don’t be too fast to condemn it. Sometimes you’ll be surprised, because humans are so adaptable.

Great insight. :goodpost:

[Studious Alien]

I know that someone else posted this a few pages back on this thread but there were not many responses to it, so I would like to post that questions again : Have you/your DC been given a sticker with the school logo on it to be pasted on the calculator and dictionaries? Also, can we stick the sticker over another sticker which states the model no. and a very long string of other numbers and letters?

Regards,
Studious Alien
