If you look at the official Cambridge syllabus, you’ll notice that GP is testing students’ ability to think critically, to construct cogent arguments and to communicate their ideas clearly.
However, it’s common for schools to focus more on content rather than the right exam answering techniques.
In fact, many schools provide their students with thick stacks of content packages and bulletins for the 12 different themes in the syllabus for them to read.
As a result, students feel overwhelmed by all the information and get overloaded from memorising content blindly. They are stuck and paralysed even before they start.
This is because content is only useful when you know how to use it.
That’s why it’s more important to focus on the right techniques to understand the question and answer accordingly.
You need to know how to adapt and apply the content according to the context and requirements of the exam question.
It’s a pity that most students do not know this. It’s not their fault though because schools generally do not teach these things.
This is the reason why at EduEdge, we’ve created…
Our ‘Formula-Style’ method helps students break down questions and structure their answers easily, in a logical and persuasive manner, for any section of the GP paper and for any topic tested.
You will be guided every step of the way on your GP journey with us.
Through our robust GP Programme, you’ll learn how to:
Basically, we’ve got you covered!
There is a step-by-step formula for every single section of the GP exam to guide you in your thinking and ensure a logical flow in your answers.
You’ll always know exactly what to do rather than answering questions aimlessly.
Stop ploughing through pages of text or memorising thick stacks of notes to figure out what to do with all the given information. It’s never about how much content you know. It’s all about how you use these content effectively.
We understand that JC life is extremely hectic for students, so trying to keep up alone is already a challenge.
That’s why we provide you with the right content that can be used for various topics in a bite-sized format that’s easy to remember.
We even tell you exactly the implications of each piece of information, how you can use it and where to place it in your argument for maximum impact.
With our techniques, you’ll be able to break down questions easily and understand what they are asking for, so you’ll provide answers that meet the requirements of the Cambridge examiners’ rubrics.
You’ll also learn how to adapt and apply your content knowledge to the context of the question and support your argument.
Gone are the days when you’d stare blankly at the paper or feel like you’re writing aimlessly in the middle of the exam.
Due to the large class size in school, students tend to get vague feedback on their work, which makes it even harder for them to try and improve their grades.
At EduEdge, we give you customised one-on-one feedback on your work and concrete actionable steps to improve.
You’ll know which areas you need to work on exactly and how to boost your grades.

What sets the EduEdge Language Specialist apart from all other teachers or tutors?
Only applicants who have cleared all 3 rounds of the interview will be hired.
All applicants are carefully selected and stringently screened.
The newly hired teachers will then go through 6 to 12 months worth of specialised training from our Founder, Mr Edwin Edangelus Cheng.
During this period, they will need to clear 3 learning exams and clock a minimum of 1,000 training hours on our unique formulaic style of teaching before they may be certified to teach.
Due to the rigour of our training process, on average, 3 out of 5 trainees will drop out before they even complete the programme.
This is our promise and commitment to students and parents to ensure that only Language Specialists, who are exceedingly good in what they do, are allowed to coach our students.
As you may already know, GP is a compulsory subject when calculating a student’s University Admission Scores (UAS) for applying to courses in local universities in Singapore.
This is the formula for the calculation:
The maximum UAS is 90 points, where more points mean a higher chance of you getting your dream course.
The truth is many popular and prestigious courses like Medicine, Dentistry, and Sciences require straight As for a student to even be considered for admission.
Furthermore, some courses like Law even require you to have a minimum B grade in GP before you are qualified to apply.
As you can see, it’s crucial that you also score well for GP on top of your content subjects.
This will widen the choices that you can make when it comes down to the university courses application process.
If you think about it, you only have less than 1 year & 8 months to prepare for A-Levels, as compared to 4 years for O Levels.
So time is of the essence when you are a JC student preparing for the national exams.
The earlier you start, the more time you’ll have to master the content, thinking processes and techniques to score for GP.
If you’re ready to take action, then share with us your details below and we’ll follow up with you to schedule a fully sponsored diagnostic consultation with our GP Specialists.
