What is the PSLE scoring system?
The PSLE uses a grading system based on Achievement Levels (ALs) ranging from 1 (highest) to 8 (lowest). The ALs are assigned based on a student's overall performance in all subjects. The raw scores obtained for each subject are converted into T-scores, which are then used to determine the Achievement Levels. Students are also given an overall T-score, which is used for secondary school placement.
