All About T-Score

[67283]

Got another question about this foreign language thing:

You’ve got two students who are both in top 10%

Alex: 263, GEP, EESIS due to GEP
Anna: 264, no EESIS

Both apply for same foreign language. Alex gets it but Anna doesn’t. How is this possible?

There may be a few things that I didn’t include so tell me

Thanks.

This is hypothetical? Bec it's not possible that someone with 264 did not get EESIS unless she's not Singaporean.

If she is not in the top 1/3 of the school, she won't get it, right? Girls usually have higher t-score than boys.

Same school? or Anna not in Independent School?

If I’m not wrong, SARS only appeared at end of 2002. If the birth rate is low for that year, I doubt it has anything to do with SARS.

agreed with Jtoh, EEISS does NOT discriminate gender, it is by merits. as long as top 3% of cohort , EEISS cut off t-score, all SG kids be given.

I think the question is on foreign language… Maybe the language is Jap and the boy have higher chinese?
