Honeybunz SG Students cannot take pressure not because the pressure is increasing. They have been spoilt by their parents. Parents always want to give the best and the most to their children. What best and most? --> Best toys, most number of toys. --> Best computers, most number of games. Got educational CDs also lah. But all in the form of games. --> Best holidays, most expensive ones.
Icemoon SG I think this is a naive view of things. If you think the PRC can ace the Maths paper, then it begs to examine their "creative" syllabus in China. My take is it has something to do with how the subject is taught, not whether they are textbook or creative-based.
nismoS132 SG why are people blaming the MOE now? the fact that they bothered to introduce 'different' questions is a good thing. like fireice said, this will seperate the As from the A*s. if anyone's to blame, it should be the parents, for subcoming to their whiny little children.
ditzy SG There will always be two groups of people. They group that will never be pleased, and the group that will never be pleased and complain somemore.
stellazio SG wth,everything also complain..last time my o lvl paper as compared to the batch after and before me soo much easier we also neva say anything..in the end its your o lvl cert which is more important as long can go sec school can liao..
vindicated SG Tell this to the whole world, and what you get is laughter! Trivial thing like this matter no need to be published in newspaper lah! PSLE only, so easy!!!
renorenal SG The question: Which came first, the chicken or the egg? If a rat is able to lay 10 eggs everyday, how many eggs can it lay for 2 and a half days? a) 10 b) 25 c) 40 d) 60 e) None
proxyxies SG tats wat dey said dey wan to implement..the “teach less learn more ” technique…hoping students will learn more by themselves through reading, net etc. ........no use complaining if its already done
skyfoo SG all wrong, shld be 20. lay 10 eggs everyday doesnt mean 5 in half a day. logically, it shld be lay 10 eggs at a time so ans = 20
ndmmxiaomayi SG Everything also difficult. Don't study lor. Make your life so hard for what? It is not about PSLE maths paper difficult, it is more about whether you notice the things around you or not. For example, in the year 2000 PSLE maths paper, students complained about this question: 1 + 2 + 3 + ... +97 =? And a lot of students will go this way: 1 + 2 + 3 + ... +97 =? Actually, there's a pattern. When you add 1 to 10, it is 55. When 11 to 20, it is 155. When 21 to 30, it is 255, so on and so forth. If they ever notice this pattern, will they find this question hard? Take out your calculators and play with the numbers. Don't complain anymore.
