唔係Cambridge,Cambridge admission test 係11月2日,未in住。
係Imperial約佢interview。頭先佢先話有申 ...

Wow! Congratulations! Imperial is great! She applied for chemical engineering right? Is it all applicants being considered have to be interviewed?

My son briefly browsed the history courses on Cambridge website and said he won't take history as it's too essay based and some modules to are not interesting to him.

He thinks he would take STEM courses instead.
Told him to look at different engineering courses Cambridge and Imperial sites so that he can have explore if engineering is interesting and which stream is more suitable for him.

Ask your daughter to add oil and wish her best of luck!

I think interview requirement varies with subjects.  Last year, my son did not require interview and obtain the conditional offer from IC.

If not applying Oxbridge, the deadline is Dec (or Jan?)

尋晚同朋友食飯,佢細路已經響英國幾年。佢話通常只有Oxbridge有interview,大部分其他大學都唔洗interview,唔知點解今云阿囡要in IC?

Oxbridge係早過其他大學,10月15號已截止報名。唔報呢兩間,UCAS application deadline大概係11月中。

但系因為系rolling bases, 所以早d報都有著數既

Thanks for the advice!

阿仔應該會報Oxbridge 所以應該會早報UCAS. 剛收到學校信一月已有Oxbridge night 比lower six 學生同家長,跟住有一連串報名丶面試的training.

阿仔呢幾日都開始上網睇下大學嘅科目資料,叫咗佢最好返英國前話到比我地知心儀邊間大學,二月mid term break 我地陪佢去睇,而家開始計劃行程同訂Airbnb.

  oxford 同cambridge 之間點揀呢? 有乜 criteria? thanks !

其實每個學科都唔同,不能一概而論,不過普遍黎講可以參考下呢度︰

http://www.undergraduate.study.cam.ac.uk/find-out-more/teachers-and-parents/oxford-and-cambridge-similarities-and-differences

例如,對於 interview shortlisting & testing︰

Shortlisting

Many A-level applicants are predicted to achieve top grades and many also have excellent references. It’s therefore not possible for Oxford or Cambridge to select the best students based on their UCAS applications alone. Each university has a slightly different approach to differentiating between applicants.

Oxford asks applicants for most of its courses to take a test as part of their application. Tutors then shortlist applicants based on students’ applications and performance in the test. Where applications are around three per place, most applicants are shortlisted. For the most competitive degrees, far fewer will be shortlisted, to allow those who most closely meet the selection criteria to have multiple interviews. AS-level grades and Uniform Mark Scheme (UMS) scores are not a key element in shortlisting.

Cambridge makes less use of pre-interview tests and interview around 80% of their undergraduate applicants. AS-level grades and UMS scores are considered, alongside all the other information available to selectors, both in deciding which applicants will be invited to interview and which will be offered a place. Only applicants for medicine and veterinary medicine are required to take a test before interview.


Tests before interview

All students applying for the standard medicine course (A100) at either university, must register to take the BMAT as part of their application, as must candidates for the graduate entry medicine course (A101) at Oxford.

All students applying for the veterinary medicine course (D100) at Cambridge or Biomedical Sciences at Oxford (BC98) must also register to take the BMAT as part of their application.

Oxford requires applicants to take written tests before interview in most other subjects. Please note that separate registration is required. These tests are usually taken in your school or college.


Tests at interview

Cambridge requires some applicants to take tests during the interview period.

For further details:
Cambridge: www.cam.ac.uk/tests
Oxford: www.ox.ac.uk/tests



普遍黎講,oxford 係會先 admission test,然後從中會挑選三倍最後會收既人數 shortlist 來 interview,而 cambridge 就會先 interview 較多人數,然後再 test。當年我地報既科目就是如此,因為孩子考試能力比面試能力高,所以我地就選擇先考試後面試的 oxford,結果考試成績理想,面試時壓力大減,最後僥倖過關。

不過唔係科科都係咁的,所以要詳細研究兩間大學對於孩子心儀科目的收生程序,考試/面試的先後次序,shortlist candidates 的方法。然後最好再研究埋次選大學例如 imperial 同一科目的收生程序,需唔需要考試/面試,再定出相應策略。

Wow!多謝你的詳細資料同講解。
你的孩子現在讀緊Oxford? 可以說邊科嗎?
原來揀和考Oxbridge 有這麼多學問!我連阿仔是考試能力強還是面試能力強也不知道,應該要問他自己和老師。說真的無論Oxford or Cambridge 都是夢想,都要靠點運氣,感覺對阿仔來說有點撞彩和看緣分。
