UPSR science questions too challenging


I RECENTLY reviewed the UPSR Science 2016 Paper 1 and was utterly shocked by the difficult questions purposely created for our 12-year-olds.

Supposedly by training the students to answer questions filled with graphs, diagrams and applied knowledge, our rankings would improve.
