八大取錄首屆文憑試成績

elbar

　　(星島日報報道)首屆中學文憑試共有逾九萬名中六學生參加，但八大院校提供的資助學額只有約一萬五千個，正所謂知己知彼，若要成功取得學額，必須先要了解八大院校各課程的收生要求，才可突圍而出。八大院校昨日公布首屆文憑試考生入學成績，大體上將成績分為七級，但每級的計分法卻各有不同，為幫助第二屆文憑試考生於聯招選科時部署策略，本報現將八大院校公布的各課程收生成績，包括成績中位數、最高及最低分數等全部羅列，讓考生從中得知心儀學科的收生水平。


香港大學



　　被譽為「香港第一學府」的香港大學，每年均吸納不少尖子。港大為首屆中學文憑試考生提供三十四個學士學位課程，收生以5**為七分，如此類推計算，當中有八個課程的收生成績達滿分三十五分，包括法學士、內外全科醫學士、藥劑學、理學士（精算學）、工商管理學（法學）、社會科學（政治學與法學）、理學士（計量金融）和工商管理學（國際商業及環球管理），收生最低的為文學士（建築文物保護）和工商管理學（資訊系統），學生五科平均取得四級，取得二十分，已有機會獲取錄。


中文大學



　　設有八個學院的中文大學，為首屆文憑試考生提供四十八個學士學位課程，該校尤其重視考生語文能力，大部分課程要求中、英文科成績中位數達四級或以上，當中收生成績最高課程為環球商業學，中、英、數和一科選修科成績中位數均為5**，成為不少尖子的心儀課程，估計來年競爭將愈趨激烈。至於收生成績最低的課程，是文化研究和宗教研究，考生只需四個必修科加兩個選修科的成積中位數均達四級，便有機會入讀。


科技大學



　　以理、工科和商科課程聞名的科技大學，設有理學院、工程學院、工商管理學院和人文社會科學院，該校一直按學院收生，學生升讀大學二年級時，才按興趣和成績選讀主修課程，但到一三學年，科大將抽出環球中國研究：人文及社會科學、國際科研和環球商業管理三個課程獨立收生。該校收生成績最高課程為工商管理，英文、通識教育和兩個選修科成績中位數均達五級或以上，收生成績最低則為工程學，但對數學科和兩個選修科文憑試成績中位數要求有四至五級。


理工大學



　　理工大學共提供五十二個學士學位課程，所提供的課程較多樣化，亦較為職業導向，該校只計算中學文憑試四個核心科目加一個選修科成績，收生以5**等於六分，一級為○分計算，收分最高為物理治療學，五科成績中位數為二十一點七分，緊隨其後是職業治療學和放射學，本港人口老化問題嚴重，醫療人手短缺下，估計未來此類科目的收生將愈趨激烈。至於收分最低是社會科學廣泛學科和運輸系統工程學，考生只需五科成績中位數達十四點三分，即有機會獲該等課程取錄。


浸會大學



　　一直秉承全人教育理念的浸會大學提供十多個課程，其中以傳理學、中醫學及視覺藝術最為人熟悉。根據該校的首屆文憑試收生數據，中醫學及生物醫學和歐洲研究（德文）成為收生成績最高的課程，須平均有一個核心科目達到5*。此外，在大學四年制下，傳理學院改為學院收生，學生獲錄取後可選修電影與媒體藝術、新聞、組織傳播或公關及廣告。另外，坐落於啟德校園的視覺藝術院，其前身為英國皇家空軍軍官俱樂部，屬政府二級文物保護的歷史建築物。


城市大學



　　城市大學與科大和嶺大一樣以學院收生，城大共設有六個學院，包括商學院、人文社會科學院、科學及工程學院、能源及環境學院、創意媒體學院和法律學院。除創意媒體學院和法律學院計算文憑試考生兩個選修科外，其他學院都計算一個選修科；而在計算成績時，城大不同學院對個別學科的計分比重都不同，例如商學院，在英文和數學的計分比重較其他學科高。按城大的數據，收生成績以能源及環境學院最高，文憑試五科成積中位數要達三十三分。


嶺南大學



　　嶺南大學是本港唯一一所以博雅教育為辦學理念的院校，要求學生必須入宿兩年或以上，設有三個院系，包括人文學、商學和社會科學，並以文學士、工商管理及社會科學採用大類收生，學生獲錄取後才選擇主修課程，較受歡迎的文學士提供中文、文化研究及歷史等七個主修課程。該校計算考生四個核心科目及一個選修科目的成績，首屆的收生數據顯示，三個課程的平均總分均達四分或以上，意昧考生平均考獲最少五科四級，才有獲錄取的把握。


香港教育學院



　　教育學院一直建基於培訓優秀教師，提供逾十個與中小學及幼兒教育相關的學士學位課程，涵蓋中英數、通識教育及多個術科範疇﹔該校近年亦拓展教育以外的學士學位課程，如語文研究、創意藝術與文化、心理學和全球及環境研究。該校收生計算四個核心科目及一個選修科目的成績，以5**等於七分，依次至一級等於一分計算，該校所有學士學位課程總分平均達十八至二十分，換言之，考生須考獲三至五科四級，才有機會被錄取。

I guess most parents refer to some bright students from different schools, who score extremely well in all other subjects, but fail in Chinese and no chance. May be you have an impression like that!

個報表唔係列出要求吧，只是列出2012年之收生統計數字，亦剛好所收之學生其中文表現比英文好而已。

Please don't mix up post-grad. specialist medical traing and research.

In the US, the quality and quantity of research work play a critical role in determining the reputation of a program.  I suppose this principle applies to the medical school too.  Wouldn't it be better if students can stay at the forefront of medical theory and practice?  
But what you said is correct.  Students can still further their studies overseas after getting the first degree.

No doubt, the medical researches in the USA or other advanced countries are far better than those in Hong Kong. However,

However, if we talk about the medical education, the two medical schools in Hong Kong could provide very good training to the students. That is why the ranking of HKU and CU is always amongst the top 100 medical schools in world.

Personally, I agree that we should relax the rules for the admission of overseas medical doctors to practice in Hong Kong or at least make the passing rate of the licentiate examination higher, say at least 50%.

Thanks for your info.  I sort of understand how it works now.  However, isn't the medical research more advanced in the US?  it sounds like the current system is trying to preclude the US practitioners from getting into the profession here in HK.  Well, usually professional societies are like this. But for the sake of the general public, from a layman's point of view, it seems that having more doctors being trained in a more advanced country shouldn't be a bad idea.

"One question: let's say a kid is accepted by Johns Hopkins pre-med, then medical school.  can he come back to HK to practice? would this path be better than the local one? (i'm just being curious and I know nothing about this area)"

Unless the students are graduated in one of the two local medical schools, they could not practice (even they are registered doctors overseas) without passing the licentiate examination and doing one year internship. If you care to check the passing rate of the licentiate examination in the web, you will find that the annual passing rate is around 10 percent. Sometimes, it was as low as 5 percent. So if the kids aim to study medicine and practice in Hong Kong in future, they would choose to study medicine in Hong Kong if they are admitted by HKU or CU.

In US, it takes 4 years to complete a medical degree (after the first degree). One of the requirements imposed for taking the HK licentiate examination is the candidate should receive 5 years formal academic training. From this wording, one doubts whether he is qualified to take the licenctiate examination if he studies medicine in the USA. I can tell you an actual example. One of my D's classmate was admitted to study the pre-med program of a top top top college (Ivy equivalent college in the USA). He chose to study medicine in CU when he received an offer from CU this year.

Yes, this is very true.
One question: let's say a kid is accepted by Johns Hopkins pre-med, then medical school.  can he come back to HK to practice? would this path be better than the local one? (i'm just being curious and I know nothing about this area)

If the kid is interested in medicine, his aim should target at the local medical schools no matter which education system he is. Even if his aims at law, there are a number of good law schools overseas. Of course, if he is admitted to the prestigeous law program of the local law schools, he would choose to settle in Hong Kong. Otherwise, I agree that the IB students would intend to study abroad.

As mentioned above, the magazine just talked about Jupas and A-level intakes.  I believe Jupas + PRC top students account for a very big portion of the pie.  To support HKDSE administered by the government, all 8 universities would definitely reserve most places for DSE students.  Shouldn't IB students consider studying overseas as a probable option right at the beginning of the IB program?  Maybe I'm wrong.  I used to think that compared with all 8 unversities, the undergraduate education offered overseas (say US/UK/etc) would suit the IB students much better.

Thanks for your sharing.

Did it mention how many non-jupas applicants were admitted to the 4-year new program? It was reported that all 8 universities reserved over 90% of its places to HKDSE students in 2012 admission cycle. Some universities such as PolyU, Ling Nan or Baptist U did not admit NJ applicants (or if they did, just very few).

The difference in AL and HKDSE intakes shows that more places were allocated to HKDSE applicants with the result that the admission of NJ students is substantially less.

It only reported the total no. of intake thru DSE (2,897) and A-Level (2,451).  Also, it mentioned that CU took 305 top students from China.  Their exam scores placed them in the top 0.1%.

Did rhe CU Alumni Magazine disclose how many students were admitted this year (including DSE and NJ applicants)?

猴子爸

but other universities don't have too many subjects which are superior to those offered by Big 3.  The ones I can think of are some exclusive subjects offered by Poly and Communications by BU.
