Revision

Dear students You will never know how much you really know unless you put yourself to a test. This is NOT a test but a practice design to a level of understanding at competency. If you can do these questions, you are most likely to get at least an A grade in the final examination. I would recommend ALL students to do this practice before the Mid-year examination. After this practice, it prepares you well not only to identify your weakness, but also getting yourself ready to do harder or more challenging questions for youre A*. This is a copyrighted material, so it is only intended for students personal use only, and IT IS NOT FOR ANY COMMERCIAL PURPOSES. You may send me an email for any suggest at korlinang@hotmail.com. Good luck in your 2013 PSLE.
