A Level GP Tuition – PSLE math Question on $1 coins (Article)

Every year, there would bound to be a hot debate over a certain question from the PSLE on one of its tricky questions. Many parents would end up being upset because the question was not ‘fair’ or ‘not within syllabus’. Such attitudes are still premised on the notion that the PSLE is a high-stakes national examination and that there should be no ‘trick questions’ to cause students anxiety.
