Chinese exams in Singapore
Students taking Chinese often feel that they need
to improve on their memorization of textbook knowledge. Teachers tell them that
they must draw examples from experiences that they had encountered.
Alternatively, they might be required to conjure scenarios that they never
would have ever experienced first-hand. Students need to demonstrate that they
are prolific intellectuals, reflective thinkers and expressive writers.
Singapore students feel anxiety over their grades
On 20 August 2017, the Straits Times wrote that
an international study conducted by the Organization for Economic Cooperation
and Development (OECD) involving 540,000 students from 72 countries, suggests
that Singapore students – known worldwide for academic excellence – also experience
high levels of anxiety.
The poll showed that 66% of students across all
OECD countries said that they were worried about poor grades at school, and
that among Singapore students, it was 86%
In Singapore, 76% of those polled reported
feeling very anxious for a test even if they were well prepared, compared with
the OECD average of 55%
Exam questions are getting more difficult
School and national exams in Singapore seem to
have increasingly difficult questions that are designed and set in novel and
unfamiliar contexts. It has become more important for students to be able to
apply theoretical concepts in a practical setting.
