| Option | Published route | Before committing |
|---|---|---|
| CMA Singapore | Centre-specific abacus and mental-arithmetic programme lists. | Arrange a preview with that centre; age groups and course availability differ between locations. |
| UCMAS Singapore | Abacus and mental-arithmetic modules, including a foundation route for ages 4-9. | Confirm placement, centre, class size, teaching hours and complete course charges. |
Compare the actual centre, starting module and practice commitment. CMA’s course list varies by centre; UCMAS describes a foundation age band and later modules. Treat these as learning activities to assess for fit, rather than evidence of improved intelligence, school marks or a guaranteed competition result.
These options are listed alphabetically. Compare the selected course, product or contract before committing; inclusion is not a quality ranking.
