Hi All,


It's already mid of nov, i am so panicked :nailbite: and i still haven't started the preparation, are we too late...can we cope up if we start preparing now?.
How far have u all prepared?.

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.

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.

My advice...do NOT rush. The 9 month journey is not easy, especially the month of September itself. I was afraid my son would burn out, so I monitored him closely. Towards the tail end of Aug, things will be heated. Drink lots of water during the hot weather and have enough rest.
Go for a holiday first.

i believe the results are all printed and ready. just tabulating some statistics and give briefing to relevant officials. close shop already. next group take over.

[janet88]

The results are definitely all ready…just waiting to be delivered to the schools on that day. I was told even teachers do not know results of any student until Nov 22.


So what i heard is correct…Sep 26 first written paper and it should be English. Parents, take a break first…after that you can start building momentum. All the best !!!

Dear Mummies


Any particular PSLE assessment books (all subjects) are good for practicing? Don't mind to share with us...

Thank you...
