I tried to do the P3 Science exams from the top schools and... there's no way I can score 100 for it myself! It's REALLY tough considering that the kids just started science this year. Aside from learning names and stuff (thorax, abdomen, etc), the questions were focused more on application of what they learn... so it was really like conducting investigative work. A lot of the questions were really subjective.


Some examples:
1. What are the purpose of feathers on peacocks
(A) They help the peacock fly
(B) They protect the peacock's skin
(C) They are used to attract mates
(D) They keep the peacock warm

Answer:
(1) B, C, D
(2) B, D
(3) A, B, C, D
(4) C

2. A Molly:
(A) Gives birth to its young
(B) Lays eggs
(C) Is a plant
(D) Is an insect

Anyone dare attempt these questions? Play fair - no googling until you actually tried to answer.

Question 1)1
Question 2)B

This coming Friday is a break for S1 students. School starts on 11th Jan.

Ah, so your son is in Isparks - this is the consortium for SBGEP in HCI. Your son was from GEP in primary school?

S1 students are grouped in 4 consortiums - Aphelion, Isparks, Ortus ans Pro-Ed.
My DS is in Aphelion.
Except for Isparks which is the consortium for GEP and some other students, I don't know how they are selected for the other 3 consortiums.
Anyone knows the criteria?

Heard that Aphelion is good in English,Ispark is maths, Pro-Ed is science and Ortus is chinese. :celebrate:

I'm in no charge to comment, but I think they are random.

I have people of the same score, same school, going to different consortiums.
Cheers are driving me crazy.
I'm in group 15, the first group to be presented the prize.

I am in group 15 too!

There is no school on Friday. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
