You all start letting your kids do the past year paper? Some of the topic haven't cover yet right? Especially Math & Science.

Maths good to practice problem solving, with p5 syllabus, they should almost able to complete 80% of the paper .... Have fun.

Take it easy. It is not too late. My boy took his PSLE this year. He only started his
preparation in Dec last year. Go for a short trip before you
start the revision. Most of the PSLE topics cover in P5,
you may start revising P5 topics first. P6 syllabus will be completed by term 2, before SA1. Top school prelim papers & past year PSLE can be done during the June holidays. All the best to your child PSLE!

Thank you so much, mummy so kiasu,


You words are so encouraging, now i feel somewhat better, i think instead of panicking i can sit down and plan for how to prepare. Thank you again and i also wish you good luck for ur son’s psle result.

Hi mummy2001,
Most of us were in slow motion at the end of P5 after SA2.
The panic started in January (for me). If you wish to start, you can do so in Dec for the 2 languages. Start to build momentum and stamina slowly...a mad rush will burn the child out by Aug. All the best.

[mummy2001]

I totally agree with you janet_lee88, I usually do that, rush him for everything, i now( after the results are out, :scared: his percentage dropped ) understand that it is wrong and decided to run slowly and steadily.
