What are the PSLE AL score bands?
Each PSLE subject is graded from AL1 to AL8 by raw mark: AL1 is 90–100, AL2 is 85–89, AL3 is 80–84, AL4 is 75–79, AL5 is 65–74, AL6 is 45–64, AL7 is 20–44, and AL8 is below 20.
Reading the bands
The bands get wider as marks fall, which means small differences at the top (say 89 vs 90) move a child a whole AL, while a wider range of marks all map to AL6 or AL7.
