Hi parents,

I should say that the maths PSLE paper 2 was neither too dificult nor too easy.It is a easy paper but most questions are indirect.Once you past that,the question is as easy as ABC.I would advice the next year PSLE students to go to the toilet after 30 minutes from the starting time.This strategy relaxed my mind and i was relaxed.I did most questions quickly.Hold on there,i am going to post the last question of the paper 2 later.
cheers

I am a student who just took the paper.There were a few killer questions but it depends on your child and me.Last question,according to all my friends,was hard.There was 1 question in Paper 1 Booklet B where many of my friends go tricked.Something to do with "for every 2 men,there are at least 3 women in between." The answer is 28.Did your DC get correct?


definitely 28…
people who put 44 grouped the people as groups of 5. this is wrong as each grp –> man woman woman woman man
but in this pattern, the next person will be man.
you can’t have 2 men together!!!
