Primary School Leaving Examination.
How the Primary Six students in Singapore dread these four words.
As everyone knows, the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE) is a national examination which is taken by all the Primary Six students in Singapore. After the results are released, every pupil will be posted to a Secondary School, except those who fail.
Needless to say, during that critical year in every child's life, the child will definitely be under a lot of stress. I'm sure a lot of parents will nag at their children for playing computer games, not doing their homework, oversleeping, and just not taking the examinations seriously.
Fortunately, for me, this is not the case. I have parents who are 'very lax', so lax that sometimes I wonder if they really care about the PSLE at all. Until now, my dad still doesn't know that the list of 'keywords' that every 'kiasu' parent knows: Direct School Admission (DSA), General Ability Test (GAT) and none other than the PSLE itself.
I can't really blame them, really. They are terribly busy. So, I have decided to rely on myself to study hard, persevere, and get good results.
Now, before I continue, I must tell all of you something. I can't really guarantee my study methods work. All of the methods suggested are only my ways of doing things.
