Daily Dose: 

So last night, I went to bed, and then I dreamt that I should do short videos on how to score in the MUET Reading 800/3 paper. I even remembered what to name it when I woke up. Eureka! So this is how "Daily Dose of MUET with Mdm Audrey Koh" has come into existence! 

Anyway, I will keep uploading this blogpost with links to my MUET Repository on Google drive. 

Here is what I have so far! 

First, you can download: 

a. Public copy of MUET Session 1 2021 paper here

Reading Suggested Answers:

Bah.. I know you have been waiting at the edge of your seats for these answers. For the first time in forever, my own students are taking S3.. so I have only just found the time to do these answers. Honestly, the reading paper is quite valid n reliable but the same CANNOT be said of the quality of the question esp in T1 of 800/4. Suffice to say they need better vetters up there.. who approved formal content in an informal format? Beats me. Pity the kids. Will there ever be a flawless set of exam papers? I can only hope, dream and wish. 

Bah.. feel free to debate.. nevertheless, I'm quite confident this is a 40/40 attempt on my part as you can see from the evidence highlighted.
