      I belive the range of each grade can be quite wide. So low A and low B could have lesser t-score than another student with high A and high B.


      My son’s friend has lower grades than him but T-score is higher.

        don't mind to share his grade, trying to do comparsion on score on subject vs the T-score. :stupid:

        Do you think if I request to review the score is helpful?

          Grade and T score is different. Grade is the raw score which is converted to T score. The T score is an indication of how well your child did compared to other children taking the exam. Take it as ranking rather than your child's performance. My DS3 scored 3A* and 1 A but get lower score than his friend who get 2 A* and 2 A. Another child scored 9 points higher though she get the same grades as DS3. Anyway, knowing DS3 normal performance, I know his 2 A* are of a lower range. Example, if the raw score of 90 and above is A* for science and DS3 scored 91, it is translated into a low T score while if his friend scored 91 for Maths but the raw score is 85 and above for A*, his T score will be higher.

          There's no way you can review the score cos it is calculated based on the raw score and the results of the whole cohort.

              I am a worried mother. My daughter is very strong in languages but she is frightened of maths. We have tried different tutors and we all agreed she can do some sums at home but not the same sums in school , maybe due to stress and fear. Because of this, she got a* for cl, a for el, a for sc and B for maths. T score 237


              anyone aware whether the t score this year is generally lower than previous 3 years for eg.

              most of the schools she aimed for around 240 to 245 are now out of her range.

              i am so lost and dont really know whether i should still try st margaret, or crescent for first choice or give up and just choose clementi or commonwealth.

              anybody can share? :stupid: :stupid: :stupid: :stupid:

                I still like to good old time, when we just go to the school near by. And parents not even care what is going on, as long as there is no red color in the report book. :celebrate:

                Good Old Days ….used cycle to school and back …lunch ..then soccer/hockey/badminton from 4pm to 7pm ….dinner …watch TV…good night sleep.

                Seasonal period …can play “guli”/marbles, “gasing”, fly kite and many more …

                Everyone write so much... :goodpost:

                  good old days are hardly possible now.


                  nearby neighbour schools are schools with relative good t scorce to get in.

                  even the neighbour like commonwealth and clementi town is high too.

                  seems like more options in the east and north/

                  anyone can answer if the avg t score this year is lower?

                  anyone with similar experiences like me? :?: :?: :?: :?:

                        top 10% is at least 250, you are likely in top 20%.
