What it takes

What a PSLE score of 6 takes

A score of 6 is four Achievement Levels that add up to 6, so every subject at about AL 1 or AL 2. One way to make it:

  • English

    AL 2

    85 to 89

  • Maths

    AL 1

    90 to 100

  • Science

    AL 2

    85 to 89

  • Mother Tongue

    AL 1

    90 to 100

In Maths, AL 1 starts at 90 marks and AL 2 at 85: 5 marks on a 100-mark paper decide a whole point of the score.

The Maths is where StudyLah comes in
