男拔首屆IB 平均38分超全球
【經濟日報專訊】國際預科文憑（IB、International Baccalaureate）上周五放榜，首年有學生應考的拔萃男書院，平均分達38分，高於全球平均29.83分；一人考得45分滿分，獲美國普林斯頓大學取錄，6成考獲入讀劍橋、牛津大學基本要求的38分或以上。

校方表示，IB課程重視學習動機，要求學生自律及妥善管理時間，坦言有成績優秀但學習性向不符的學生，會被拒諸門外。

全球IB考生今年平均分為29.83分，比去年低2.07分，僅約0.2%考生考獲45分滿分；33名男拔的首屆IB學生，平均考得38分，其中45分狀元沃澤鈞將赴美國普林斯頓大學攻讀經濟及金融，考獲44分的劉劻昀及何慶達，則分別於中文大學及香港大學攻讀醫科。

創意批判主動 取錄關鍵

9月上任男拔校長的現任副校長鄭基恩昨表示，對首屆IB學生成績感滿意，指學生的主動性及老師投入教學為培育狀元關鍵；他稱，25人的教學團隊中，一半為外籍教師，擴闊學生國際視野，亦有助學生考取好成績。
鄭基恩稱，不能比較本地新高中課程或IB課程，哪個對升學前景更有利，學生選課程應視乎其學習動機及升學意向，而校內老師會就學生的性格特質作建議；而學術成績並非校方取錄IB課程學生主要考慮，其主動性、創意及批判思考能力才是關鍵。

男拔經濟科教師兼訓導主任胡家麟解釋，學生學習動機非常重要，除了6科應考學科外，學生亦要兼顧課程鼓勵創意及社會服務的課外活動（CAS，即Creativity, Action, Service）部分，以及撰寫知識理論（TOK，即Theory Of Knowledge）論文，必須主動、自律及妥善管理時間。

他直言，有成績優秀學生報讀IB，但學習性向並不符合，都被校方拒諸門外。

棄填鴨教育 赴笈拓眼界

滿分狀元沃澤鈞稱，IB課程的老師會教導自己撰寫報考海外大學的個人簡歷，有助海外升學；考獲43分的羅元暉亦認為，本地教育制度較着重背誦，部分學生難在填鴨制度下覓得出路。

個性外向、喜愛參加課外活動的羅憶述，中一時老師曾根據本地課程教他以英文作文，必須背誦「小明要於某一處境下做某些事」，他質疑小明為何一定要這樣，其後他寫自己想寫的文章，終考不到好成績，一度被勸告放棄課外活動。

最後，他根據性向報讀IB課程，認為課程容許學生有個人觀點，亦能繼續參加不同課外活動。羅元暉如今獲倫敦大學學院法律系取錄，經深思熟慮後，他認為自己最想修讀的還是國際關係，現決定先休學一年，到歐洲各地考察政治體制，再報讀相關課程。

db對IB要求好似主要係language 同表達能力，而唔係學科成積!

***********


我的觀察話文能力是lB課程的特色，而非DBS所獨有。我跟其他lB學校學生及家長交流，他們都覺得lB的語文能力比其他學科注重些。

Thank you for your sharing.

For athletic recruit, the most important factor is the applicant's talent on the kind of sport which the Ivy wants to recruit. They would consider GPA, AP etc. However, the Ivies have an agreement on the minimum academic requirements on the applicants if they apply from athletic recruit channel. There is an Academic Index Formula agreed to by them. The Academic Index Formula only calculates the SAT and the GPA (or class rank). The Ivies would not admit any applicant whose index is below the agreed threshold. This is to maintain their standard. Once the applicant passes the index, the next important factor to determine his admission is his talent on the sport.

In this connection, you can find more information from the book called "A is for Admission" by Michelle Hernandez.

SAT is only one of the criteria for the Sport Recruit / talent recruit (terms for applicants with special non-academic skills). Ivy League also look at GPA and the types of high school you are studying. If you are from average public school, your GPA will be discounted. Of couse, if you take a lots of AP and (challenging levels for many subjects. For each of the subject, they have at least  Honour and AP level to choose. Take Maths as example, they have, honour Maths, Pre Cal, Cal AB, CAl BC, Multi-variance, etc) with good results and from a prestige pre-school, chances of admission are higher.

Anchan,

报道篇章的heading 真的十分碍眼, 不知是否'笔者'靠害, 或是跟DBS有仇, 或是喜爱拍马屁, 总之我是有点反感. DBS从来是超级老牌名校, 笔业生 是香港的基石, 这是金漆招牌, 也是不争的事实.  

十分明白你只是cut and paste, 不代表个人意见, 这两天常想如果楼主是YKchild, 以他平日对话的EQ, 肯定有更多回响了.

如有得罪, 请谅! 我是不吐不快啊!

Although the requirement of SAT is a bit lower if an applicant applies for admission to Ivy League colleges through athletic recruitment, it should not be as low as 1,600,.

There is an agreement amongst the Ivy League college that there should be a minimum SAT score for atheletic recruit in order to maintain their standard. If my memory is not wrong, the minimum SAT score should be around 1,750 to 1,800.

另一位網球精英，同樣哈佛，SAT要求是1600，好似是低一屆。

DBS 讀新制班同學仔都唔錯喎!
(經濟日報)首屆中學文憑試（DSE）本周五放榜，僅兩成考生可升讀本地資助學位課程；雙學制效應下，名校尖子亦憂心新學制前景混亂，作多手準備報讀海外大學。於就讀中四及中五時，報考GCE（英國高考）或SAT（美國大學）入學試，期望入讀海外著名學府，為自己增加出路選擇。
拔萃男書院（男拔）應屆文憑試考生吳穎駒，去年於SAT考得2,330分，獲美國康奈爾大學、芝加哥大學，及一間常春藤大學無條件取錄，最後選擇了芝加哥大學，無論周五放榜成績如何，均可赴美升學。吳表示，幾乎全班逾30名同學皆於過去兩年報考其他國際公開試，據了解，已有數名同班同學分別獲英國倫敦大學學院、倫敦帝國理工學院，及美國加州大學洛杉磯分校取錄。
另一名男拔應屆文憑試考生林兆暉，去年SAT考獲2,000分，加上網球表現卓越，中一起已代表香港出戰國際賽，毋須進行面試，已獲美國哈佛大學取錄，下月底赴美開學。他表示如學生有體育及音樂才華能貢獻學校，可增加錄取機會。

You are correct. The competition for a PCLL place with HKU or CU is very fierce. My S told me (who just completed the PCLL this year) that if you are not from the 1st or 2nd tier UK university, you need a high 2:1 LLB for admission purpose. By the way, my S has a classmate who comes from the college which admits students of IB score 28. He told me that his classmate has obtained an average of 66 marks in his LLB.

之前聽聞DBS TOP 80 位才可報IB，不知是否誤傳？
