        it was the main block in HCJC that was declared unsafe, had to be torn down and rebuilt

        as for the clock tower, the boys’ favourite ghost stories during the orientation camp is to go there and talk ghosts

        and by the way, only the top 4 class (sec 4) are eligible to use the classrooms at clock tower as their classroom…it is a prestige / entitlement thing for the top classes to be given the honour to occupy the historic classrooms

                    what is this 危ζ₯Ό thing u all have been talking about...curious to know πŸ˜‰

                    Back in the 80s, the main building of HCJC was declared unsafe, they had to abandon the campus and shifted around for a while until everything was fixed.

                    I didn't have to move around then. I attended lessons at the HCJC building at bukit timah. But the building was quite old though it was only about 10 years old ( i remember we celebrated 10 year anniversary or something like that). So I must be from pre-危ζ₯Ό era! :imcool:

                      Ms tay:

                      Dear vlim

                      Sorry I not really understand what did u mean' STD variation and so forth...???
                      I just want to know usually what is the different btw prelim score and psle t-score ( just estimation)thks

                      The PSLE score is based on the following T-score formula.

                      Formula for T-Score
                      T = (50 + 10 (X – Y))/Z
                      X = Raw score of student in the subject
                      Y = Average or Mean Score of the level or cohort
                      Z = Standard Deviation (SD) of the level or cohort
                      Standard Deviation (SD) is the spread of the marks
                      around the average.

                      This is extracted from the following link:
                      http://www.edgefieldpri.moe.edu.sg/wbn/slot/u2208/Parents_Link/Understanding%20PSLE%20T-scores.pdf
                      That's why vlim was asking how you arrived at your child score. The school usually will release the min, max and the average, but so far I have not seen provision of SD to help you arrived at a t-score.

                      Wow, Tawtau, you very on leh.. did you go thru most of the schools website? That must be tough. πŸ˜“ πŸ˜‰

                      :thankyou: for the info! πŸ˜„
