Frequently asked questions

How is O Level comprehension different from PSLE?
O Level passages are longer and more abstract. Questions include summary (point-based), language use (explain effect of a phrase), and inference requiring deeper analysis — not just literal retrieval.
How do I write a good O Level summary?
Identify 10–15 key points in note form, paraphrase (do not copy whole phrases), stay within the word limit, and use your own connectors. Only include relevant points that answer the summary question.
What are common O Level comprehension mistakes?
Lifting entire sentences for summary, giving personal opinions instead of textual evidence, and exceeding the word limit. Practise paraphrasing and counting words.
