Hi, can anyone share the pros and cons of studying A-level in UK? My girl is sitting at the last CE these months. She expects to have 20-24 scores. She is not confident to achieve good results in HK A-level but she wishes to study at top tier universities. Would it be better and easier for her to study A-level in UK? Or stay in HK?

因英國學生比香港學生細一年，即比香港學生讀少了一年課程。香港學生會着數好多。我仔会考26分，過到英國变最勁的學生，要入 top 10 大學絕對冇問題。

no la, he got the academic award. He said he was a role model in the school becasue he still studies very hard. The teacher gave him the A2 level books for him to study by his own. That is why he can take the AS level public exam in this May/June during Lower six. If he can get more A, then he can get the offer from the top Univeristy.

Hi T-mama, do you mean your son can enter to university one year early? I am a bit confused by your response. To my knowledge, I know that Lower Six students need to sit in AS exams and Uppler Six students need to sit in A2 exams. Am I correct?
Your son is great. He is given A2 books, I am sure he is able to study well by himself. Will the school provide him extra support to raise his academic performance?

Normally, the Lower six students take AS level in Jan in Upper Six, only few students can take them in May/June in Lower Six.

My son get 3A,2B,3C,1D in his HKCEE (Science student). He goes overseas becasue he wantes to follow his father's step - to study in overseas, becasue his father is the hero in his eyes. Now, he studies psy ,triple maths, physics, music and music technology in UK. He likes music, it is also a good enviroment to study music in UK becasue there is no music A-level in HK now.
His school is called Oundle School, it is around in 59 position in UK school ranking. He said the stress is not as big as in HK. Therefore he can study happily. The class is in 小班教學 style. The relationship between the teachers and students are very close. He told me that he got the acadmic award again in last semester.
By the way, different child has different personality. Some students may have a home sick. Therefore the parent cannot force the child to study overseas. Like my elder son, he has no interest to go overseas. The child would be happy if it is his own decision. Luckily my son has no homesick at all.

Normally, we must apply one year in advance if you want to study in UK. My son is the very special case ,he applied it after HKCEE 放榜. One day, my husband brought him to see the exhibition becasue he wanted to find some Unveristies information for my elder son. However, the agent ask my 2nd son whether he likes to study overseas and what his HKCEE result is. Then he got 2 offers immediately from Concrod School and Oundle School. Later he goes through the telephone interview with the teacher in Admission dept and he decides to leave DBS and goes to UK to have a try.Actually, I prefer he stays in DBS than study in UK. However, it is his own decision and I can afford it. So I let him go. He is very happy now although I lost 6,000 留位費 for F.6 in DBS. The other reason is he does not like Chinese subject, he does not want to suffer 2 more year of Chinese.

Hi T-mama, thanks for your share. Both Concord and Oundle are good schools in UK. I realise to study with UK top schools, we must apply at least a year ahead, however, our decision to study abroad was a bit late (this January). The agents told us that many good schools in UK were closed for Sixth Form application. We only got an offer from a UK school ranked 140. We are not sure if my daughter can share your son's luck to get an offer from one of the top schools in UK. She is sitting for HKCEE this year. She expects she is able to get 20-24 scores. She wishes to study abroad either in UK or US. It is really difficult for us as parents to make a right decision.

真是要早一点决定，因為我仔有英国護照才能都即取 offer即去英国，冇英国護照要搞簽證架，英国隨時簽不到證架，到時想去也不能去。

My friend said that Oundle has the most advanced science lab out of all UK boarding schools in UK and last year over 20 students went to Oxbridge while 33 Oundle students went to Oxbridge in 2008. My son is also on the waiting list of Year 10 in Oundle though I only applied for this school during December last year.

Hi T-mama and CPU1995,

It is really good that T-mama's son is going on the right track and have been doing very well.
Do you think usually a child can get used to the life in UK if he/she goes for A-level study? Or he/she should go off earlier, e.g. aged 11 for grade7 or 13 for grade 9, for better adaptation?

阿仔自己喜歡的，他在電話 interview 談了一小時，他本來喜歡作曲，那校老師對他說有一科 music technology 很適合他，他們有好設備，老師透過 utube 看過阿仔作的曲，對他說他一定喜歡這科，咁阿仔就選了這间。他剛考了編曲，老師對他讚不絕口。英国老師常讚學生架！推動力好大，孩子自動自覺努力。

我本人覺得孩子大一點才去外國好些，自理能力强些。
