Please note that Shatin, FIS and CIS took IB in 2008, no A - level examin.

I am no good at analysis.  If you notice there's anything interesting, please tell me.  Thank you.

Bobby,

You said "如果担心学校未有充足预备,就上网看IB curriculum 和理念,快些预先操练孩子成为'自动波', 以补不足吧."  What exactly do you mean by 自动波?  Do you mean working hard by himself without us urging?  Any other tips?   I don't know if what we do at home is enough at the end of the day because I have a feeling that the school's guidance is very important.  However, we can't really expect the school to work at top gear in the first year of the transition, can we?
****    ***    ****    ***

need to take my mother-in-law for body check up, only can answer briefly.  

Yes, the school's guidance is extremely important.  I heard that  CIS's guidance is superb in helping students to apply for ivy league.  She's my friend too.  But I never ask her any tips about it.   I always hold my tongue to ask  questions that  seems silly and embarrassed to uncover the ture me (one of tiger moms, huh.!)

I think boy and girl are different.  My girl is at age 13 and starts to care about her test results that may be important to boost up her ego amongst peer group.  Usually boys need to wait until age 15 to care about anything.  My experience told me that : 你忍得住唔帮孩子, 他们反而早点变成 自动波 , 不要让他们知道你紧张过他们,无得依靠, 当然要早点长大吧, 这些是surival kit.  逼到埋身就要学懂的.

Also, IB is different from A level. It's hard and busy.  But not the hardest one can get higher scores.  Not like A level.  如果孩子爱动和灵活, 有IGCSE 考得差的, 反而IB 考得好.   

I heard that some LPC students (african and Indian,  maths genius?) , would give tuition about critical thinking. If you still feel uncomfortable, you can look for one to help your son.  Standard tuition fee is about : HK$350 per hour.

Good Luck!   Merry Christmas , everyone!

annie
