JC1 Progress Report

GP [C]: A responsible student who is diligent and motivated to learn. She is focused during group discussions but would do well to speak up more during class discussions. She has shown the ability to craft logical arguments in her written assignments and participating more actively in class would help her to sharpen her analytical skills. She needs to read widely to build up on content knowledge.

H2Mathematics [S]: She is quite strong in Mathematics. To improve further, she should stretch herself to solve more difficult problems and be sensitive to the conditions given by the questions, without the help of others.

H2Economics [U]: Need to take more initiative in clearing her doubts in class and put more effort in the subject.

H2Geography [E]: An intelligent student who needs to make more effort to participate in class. *made me sound like some insolent kid who refuses to participate in class*

H1Chemistry [D]: She has a positive attitude in class. She does her tutorial questions painstakingly. *’cos Chemistry homework was the easiest to do* With continual effort, she is capable of even better results.

Chinese [B]: She is too quiet and passive in class. She needs to open up herself and seek clarification, if necessary. She certainly has the potential to score better. *trust my Chinese teacher to be too frank*

JC2 Progress Report (June Common Test)

GP [E]: She is a conscientious student who takes great pride in her work. She submits her assignments promptly without needing to be reminded and works well with her classmates. She needs to be more proactive in participating during class discussions and to be more forthcoming in articulating personal opinions. *it is not that I do not want to voice my personal opinions. I just have no opinions on most topics…* She has the potential to do well if she reads more widely and consistently.

Mathematics [U]: She has improved a lot in her Math this year. However, she seems to have gotten her concepts mixed up during the mid-year exams. She needs to do regular timed practices of exam standard questions so as to sharpen her thinking skills.

Economics [U]: She has the potential to do well at the end of the year. She needs to attempt more case studies and essay questions to help her brush up on question analysis as well as application skills. She also has to learn to write academically as this will help to improve her performance in the subject. *written by a teacher who took us for less than a month, and I am sure she was being nice since I only scored 25/100*

Geography [B]: She is a hardworking student, who is consistent in her preparation for class. She needs to think more critically about geographical issues, and express this in her answers in order to improve her grade. *the B grade was because the paper was all physical geography, something I love a lot and can excel in compared to human geography*

Chemistry [E]: She has a good grasp of the concepts taught. However, she needs to put in consistent hard work during this revision period in order to do well in the final exams.

In the end, my prelim results were:

H1 Chemistry: C

GP: D

H2 Economics: U (got improvement! 36/100! Lol.)

H2 Geography: S (oops. Human geography came in the messed up my marks)

H2 Mathematics: U (worse than Economics: 34/100)

I went into the A Level examination hall with such depressing results. And came out with:

H1 Chemistry: B

GP: C

H2 Economics: C

H2 Geography: C

H2 Mathematics: A
