About the AEIS Primary Exam
The AEIS-Primary test is the Mathematics admissions test used by Singapore's Ministry of Education to assess international students seeking places in mainstream primary schools at Primary 2 to Primary 5. Since 2022 the AEIS-Primary no longer includes an English paper; instead applicants must first meet a required Cambridge English Qualification (CEQ) score, and only the Mathematics test is sat through AEIS. The Mathematics paper is offered at two levels, Primary 2/3 and Primary 4/5, and is benchmarked to the Singapore primary maths syllabus for the level below the one applied for. Part 1 has 30 multiple-choice questions in 35 minutes, while Part 2 has 8 short-answer and 6 open-ended questions in 50 minutes where students must show their working. Calculators are not allowed. There is no fixed pass mark; offers depend on performance, age, level and the availability of vacancies.
