如果單憑學校規定IB 英文選修方面估計,RC一定要Eng A 但 VSA 沒有此規定,這樣推算,英文方面RC比較優勝。 ...
Sorry, VSA does offer Chinese B SL. This is for those students who genuinely need it and subject to the discretion of the Diploma Coordinator and Chinese Head of Department. In 2014, less than 5 students took Chinese B SL.

The student applies for HKU Business.
It is really hard to say why that happened.
It is clearly stated in the official page that English A is a proof of English proficiency.
And indeed, most students do not need to submit IELTS results. You can probably confirm this with the university placement officer at your school.
I can only suspect that this is only a special case. Most HKU and CUHK offers are conditional offers. May be this student got his offer with the condition stating that he has to have a final grades of at least a 5 in English A, but in the end, the student got only a 4. And thus the student was asked to provide something extra to proof his english proficiency.
This is just my speculation.

I have read one of your threads about an option to switch to IGCSE or staying at RC for MYP. Glad that you made your decision finally! Would you please continue to share more? Your stay must have balanced the pros and cons. Btw, any seat available at KGV? How many percentage of current student would opt for a switch to IGCSE? thanks!
