if you follow sgp news, it's time of the year for the annual psle* parents' song and dance about how unreasonable the exam was. every year, end november, these will happen:
1. clever kids weep after sitting certain papers, and
2. their parents indignantly write to the press.
my reflections:
1. the culprits are almost always math or science . never english. but it's the english that is cringeworthy!
2. haven't they heard about the curve?
3. five years on, they'll have forgotten the score. it's really not that big a deal.
4. the real deal is learning to move on when you are stumped - better learnt at the lower end of the food chain.
