ORIGINAL POST (OUTDATED):

 

Last night we covered the following items:

For Paper 1: (a) Selection of essay qn based on personal strength and preparation; (b) sample essay outlines.

For Paper 2: (a) Intro to AQ and short exercise; (b) Vocab explanation, how to derive answer from passage, how to find relevant points frm passage for your answer.

I had a chat with a parent and I understood her concerns abt her son in relation to GP. Yes, GP is a demanding subject. You need to have good (i) qn analysis skills, (ii) brainstorming skills, (iii) essay writing skills (intro, body, conclusion), (iv) demonstration of maturity, (v) use of language including grammar, vocabulary, sentence structure and style, (vi) inference skills, (vii) summary skills and other skills such as synthesis and evaluation.

The correct word to use …

Posted on by admin

What is the correct English word to use to describe individual tuition, one-on-one or one-to-one? Let me tell you what the Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary say about it:

one-on-one: (1) A US adverb used in sports to mean that each player from one team is matched to a single player from the other team. (2) A US adjective to describe an activity in which one person is teaching or giving information to another person.

one-to-one: An adjective to describe an activity in which one person is teaching or giving information to another person.

Did you know that …

that you DON’T have to pass GP in order to be admitted to NUS? However, a low score in GP will affect your total academic score for the purpose of admission. The following is taken from their website:

New Singapore-Cambridge ‘A’ Level Curriculum (H1/H2/H3 Subjects)

Applicants (regardless of nationality) presenting the Singapore-Cambridge GCE A-Levels (H1/H2/H3 curriculum) are required to meet the following minimum academic requirements:

    1. Pass in at least two subjects at H2 Level and offer either General Paper (GP) or Knowledge & Inquiry (KI) in the same sitting.
    2. Meet the Mother Tongue Language (MTL) requirement for admission by having one of the following:
      1. minimum of D7 for the higher MTL paper taken at the ‘O’ Level examination.
      2. minimum of ‘S’ grade for the H1 MTL paper or General Studies in Chinese.
      3. minimum of ‘S’ grade for the H2 MTLL paper taken at the ‘A’ Level examination.
      4. pass in the MTL ‘B’ Syllabus paper at the ‘A’ Level examination.
      If you have been exempted from MTL, the MOE-approved subject-in-lieu will be considered as your MTL subject.
