Hello to all, hope you're doing well.
Can you help me please?
What would "par time" mean?
Appreciate you for any helpful answer. Thank you.

Hello,

Any context please?
Wouldn't you mean 'part time'?

No I'm sure it's spelled correctly.
Beat the par times...

Hello !

I'd opt for an allusion to golf (but I'm sorry I don't know that sport !)This might help ...

Hello!

Do you mean "par time" in a video game?
To me, it seems to mean the time allotted to reach the target in a particular tier or stage of the game.

Hello,

I think Willy is correct. It is all to do with a video game. The student could have told us this, but didn't.
'Par' occurs in golf too, (but not 'par time' as far as I know)..A Par 5 hole is one that an expert golfer is expected to need five strokes to complete. Par here means the benchmark score, one to measure your own score by.
