近十多年看親朋的孩子選科, 看到很少人選中史, 西史等; 聽佢哋講多是選化學, 物理, 商科, 經濟等; 而見到入大學的尖子讀的又大多是與醫葯, 商業有關.  文, 史, 哲是不是在大學己較少人選? 前幾年好像有一個節目講港大的歷史系好少人讀, 唔知現在的情況如何?其實箇中的原因是什麼?

謝謝賜教

大學理科學系(醫科,理學院,工程………)多半要求要有修理科先入得,文學院就理科人都照收.
簡單黎講就係修左理科可以揀嘅學系多好多,近乎百搭.
不過又有老師推測有修Econ+Bafs的話入BBA機會會大D,不過只係以師兄師姐今年入BBA的情況推測
不過最好依興趣同實力選科,如果理科底差又硬要揀phy,chem,bio到頭來都只係死路一條
有人讀全理科讀到八大不入,有人讀全文科入埋KONG U,所以唔好盲目追求理科

讀齊文理商會否太難兼顧?

Always pick the subjects you are confident to get the highest grade.  Of course these subjects must be related to the programme you would choose in university.

我見而家好多人選理商.  到了今天中學生選334及入大學選邊系, 會唔會好多時受家長影响?  最大條的理由是今天大學生咁多, 你唔讀啲熱門 啲, 畢業後唔夠人爭...

又假如有一個好叻的小朋友, 但佢醉心文, 史, 哲, 音樂諸如此類, 十足個舊時文人咁款, 佢鐘意齋文科如中, 西史, 文學,地理等科目, 讀這些佢會開心, 讀得好好, 入大學都想讀這些.  如果你是這個小朋友的家長, 你會隨佢發揮, 定幫佢微調, 哦佢選些理科商科?  以將來畢業生活迫人來講?

If the kids can manage to study History, I suggest that they should consider taking History. My son was offered to study law by 2 top UK colleges several year ago. Both specify that it was a condition that he should have "5" on the AP World History. Many of his classmates were rejected by the same colleges because they did not take World History.

My daughter was admitted to MBBS of HKU this year. She also took World History (in addition to the science subjects). She stood out probably because she took history in her curriculum.

If you can handle "History" with good results, you need good reading, analytical and writing skills. You need to skill to articulate your view point clearly and succinctly. Such transferable skills are useful to any curriculum. That is why if the kids can handle history, it is a good option for them to take. It helps demonstrate their ability to the admission committee with the need to say so.

你小朋友好叻呀! 假如當初佢選大學時要讀 History, 不是 Mbbs, 你會怎樣做?

We discussed the same scope in another post that Economics and Geography share the same transferable skills.

My D was determined to take medicine. She studied "History" in order to let her practice and grow the reading, analytical and writing skills.

My S did mention to me that he was very interested in History and would like to study History in college. Both parents raised no objection because it was quite easy for a History graduate to join an investment bank before the financial meltdown. Further if he had no interest in the financial section, it was only a first degree and he could choose a professional degree after graduation. In any event, we explained to him that "law" was quite similar to "history". If he liked to study history, he might like to study law. After doing some research, he decided to apply for the law program.

If the family could afford the kids to take a second degree or professional degree, I see no reason why we would not let the kids pursue their interests.

Agree. Economics and Geography are also good options to provide the process for the kids to learn the reading, analytical and writing skills. My feeling is that if you have a broad base of education, i.e.science subjects plus one or two humanity subjects, it is easier to attract the attention of the admission committee of whatever program you apply for (so long the grades are competitive).

My D's application is based on Non-Jupas. She did not take DSE so she did not have 5** or 5*.

At the interview, she was asked by the professors why she studied history because it was not connected with MBBS.

She explained to the admission committee that learning history gave her the opportunity to practice and grow the reading, analytical and writing skills which were essential when studying medicine. Further she had to discuss and debate frequently during lessons on the historical issues. She needed to articulate clearly her points to the fellow classmates and won their recognition of her view points. She told the professors that one of the essential attributes of the doctors was their ability to communicate effectively well with patients and fellow doctors. Further, good communication skills would enable her to become a good team-players which were also essential to doctors.

At the end of the interview, she was commended by the professors for her answers on History.

世史和法律有互補我明白, 咁如果係講緊小朋友想响大學主打中史, 中國文學, 哲學之流呢?  做家長又如何面對?

我有朋友讀中文,做了中文老師。另一位朋友在NZ讀翻譯和中文,現在政府做中文官。其實若不是等孩子工作支持家庭的話,可以讓他選自己喜歡的科目,不會沒有出路,只是不是專業人士而已。將來會有很多變數,人的想法亦會改變。

My S's classmate who studied History and Philosophy in college is now studying the JD program in CU. Her degree in History and Philosophy won her a place. The class size is about 200 but the number of applicants over 1,000.
