Paper 1 - Multiple Choice Questions

Resource Remarks
  • Other schs' prelim papers
 Most of the solutions for the prelim papers given long before your prelims were done last year. Please get it from your friends in other classes. It has been given out to them long ago. Since it has already been compiled, it will not be uploaded here.
There are mistakes in the answers given in the five-year-series, so make sure you learn the right concepts! Must Read!

Note: If you have downloaded the earlier version, please refer to updated version for changes made to the explanation for Question 32, Nov 2002.

Paper 2 - Structured Questions

Resource Remarks
(The most updated version may not be updated so soon on this website), users are advised to verify answers with their teachers if in doubt)
Syllabus 5053 is slightly different from ours. Must Read!

Paper 3 - Practical

Resource Remarks
Good local website on Practical skills.

There will not be a practical briefing as you guys have been briefed previously (Will answer any questions on this coming saturday's lesson on electricity)
Read through the documents and email me if you have any questions.
Hope you have done ok in the practical. Do remember if you find it challenging or easy, you will not be the only one that finds it so. Besides your own performance, how you fair in a national exam is also determined by how the rest of the candidates in the country do. So do not worry too much about, just continue to march on. Work hard!

This is only for your reference. Do not read too much into it.
It is pretty much random.
