Just for curiosity, IS, ESF & some IB DSS have any % or quota of IBDP bilingual diploma ..... not necessary Chinese and English, may be other combinations.
I heard about a school pushed her students >50% to bilingual diploma, do you think it's realistic? According to IBO, around 30% students awarded bilingual diploma, students' results may be affected or they must be very very good, but I doubt it.
A friend who knows IB more than I, shared with me that, if we consider IBDP results, we also need to consider the following:
1. actual scores out of 42 and 45;
2. bilingual diploma or not;
3. taking syllabus B or AB in group 2;
4. taking maths studies instead of maths; and
5. university destinations.
His rationale likes this: Score high in IBDP with bilingual diploma, it means take both languages as mother languages in A SL/HL, the results are impressive. Maths Studies is much much easier than Maths, but it's ok for non-numerate students, if more than half of students taking MS...... something fishy. The most important is university destinations, if the scores so high, but the universities not match with the results, something wrong of the combinations and most universities discount their subjects like Mandarin B/AB, Chinese B/AB......may not count.....
His comment is LPC still the best in HK, as top 50 high schools have high % of students get into Ivy League, only 2 out of US, one is LPC. [In late 2007, the Wall Street Journal identified the College as one of the world's top 50 schools for its success in preparing students to enter Ivy League universities, one of only 2 schools located outside the US. http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/info-COLLEGE0711-sort.html] It sounds interesting to me, but it's too late for my son.
I try to verify with some "elite" IS, ESF and LPC.... IS around 30% bilingual diploma, aligned with world average, ESF <30%, no data from LPC.
Criteria 1-5, up to you to research and analyse....you draw your own conclusion.
After review such facts, my son should take the following to get into medicine (forget about bilingual diploma):
English A L&L SL
Chinese B HL
Maths Studies SL
Chemistry HL
Physics SL
Economics HL
What do you think? It's cool ......
