Effective JC H2 / H1 Economics Model Essays
On Monday, a Mrs Lee came to collect the GP Resource and Practice Package that she ordered. I didn’t realise she had come to my place before, until she mentioned that her daughter’s econs essay marks had improved significantly (from ard 5 to ard 19 marks now)after reading and studying the Economics Essay Revision Package that she had bought from me earlier. If you dont believe this, you can call Mrs Lee directly if she agrees to be ‘interviewed’. However, her daughter’s case study marks didn’t improve so I’m looking into it to understand why.
Well, I wasn’t surprised at all, as the same set of essays had been used by my Math student, Emily, to get an A at her Econs a year earlier (you can verify it with her if she agrees; she’s now studying in the US after getting four As in her H2 subjects). For those of you econs students who are too busy to attend econs tuition, and you can self-study, I would encourage you to purchase this Econs revision package that I had compiled. The essays may not be perfect (you may even add to them), but are far better than those written by average Econs students.
Alternatively, if you live near Bukti Batok, you can come to my place for econs tuition, which will be taught by Mr Jay Lim, an ex-banker in his 50’s, who has wide experience in practising finance and economics, and supported by myself and the materials that I have compiled. Although not an ex-JC teacher, Mr Lim is US-trained, and very comfortable with case studies and very familiar with the world of economics, finance, international trade and banking. He is also currently tutoring an IB student in Business & Management.
For enquiries, just give me a call or sms, to 97860411.

JC 2 H2/H1 Math Reflections …
I was teaching the Normal Distribution last night, including using it to approximate the Binomial Distribution. As usual, students have difficulties with the following:
(a) knowing the difference between Var (X1 + X2 + X3) and Var (3X), and knowing WHEN the question refers to which;
(b) doing continuity correction for P(X> k) or P(X < k) when X is a discrete variable and there is a need to approximate its distribution to Normal.
I suggest students read their H2 Math textbook carefully and thoroughly, if their own JC notes are inadequate. As you know, in Math, mistakes done at the START of the working will most likely cost you ALL the marks even if your answer is one page long. : )

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:
- Pass in at least two subjects at H2 Level and offer either General Paper (GP) or Knowledge & Inquiry (KI) in the same sitting.
- Meet the Mother Tongue Language (MTL) requirement for admission by having one of the following:
- minimum of D7 for the higher MTL paper taken at the ‘O’ Level examination.
- minimum of ‘S’ grade for the H1 MTL paper or General Studies in Chinese.
- minimum of ‘S’ grade for the H2 MTLL paper taken at the ‘A’ Level examination.
- 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.
