Oxbridge Applications and Accepts

odelia_ho

以下分析，於一個英國討論區看到的， 應該是去年的統計。家長選擇中學時， 可以作為其一指標， 這102間中學， 都是很好的選擇。 尤其是希望子女入讀Oxbridge的家長

The numbers of acceptance have been divided by the cohortinformation. Bearing in mind the saltiness aspect I’ve put the results into 5 %bandings as shown below. For each band there is the number of schools, indie, statesplit, Department of Education reported student number, Oxbridge applications and accepts, the weighted success rateagainst the full cohort, and the listing of schools in that banding. As beforean * after the school name indicates that it is independent rather than state.

We can have 5 choices in UCAS. So it's possible to receive 5 conditional offers. But the student needs to choose one firm offer & one insurance offer before the deadline (usually in May or June).
My son didn't choose Edinburgh as firm or insurance.

4eyesDad

It sounds as if your kid is not interested in going to Edinburgh. By the way, I do not realize it is possible to receive 5 conditional offers. I thought one can hold no more than 2!

回覆 4eyesDad 的帖子

Yes, we were well aware of this fact. In fact, U of Edinburgh has a lot of elective courses to choose from besides the core requirements of the courses related to the major. That's why it needs 4 years to graduate. The academic system is a bit like the universities in HK and US, rather than that in the other parts of UK which just focusing on the courses in the major.

4eyesDad

I hope you realize that most Scottish universities normally require 4 years at undergrad level whereas English universities only require 3 years. Other things being equal, that is 1/3 more in fees!

Typical offer is IB 37. But his offer is IB 34, because he will pay tuition fee of overseas student.
Out of 5 universities applied, only Edinburgh's offer deviates much from the "typical offer" published on the university website. Other 4 UK universities (more prestigious ones) give conditional offers at expected IB score as published on their websites.

Your son take IB in six form, so this U acceptance point is 37 or 34?

I have the same feeling as you. UK universities (except Oxbridge and other top U's) like to recruit overseas student. My son applied Edinburgh as a safety university. According to their website, typical offer for his applied subject is IB 37 points. After application submitted for a while, he received Edinburgh's request for him to confirm that his tuition fee status is "overseas". After he confirmed his fee status, he received a conditional offer of IB 34, explicitly stating the condition that this conditional offer is valid if his fee status is "overseas".

"交海外學生學費就更容易入讀"

<<<事實上，絕大部份英國大學 IB 40分都收，再加上交海外學生學費就更容易入讀。>>>

我是指所有的英國大學，不限於牛津劍橋。


近年，英國的教育己成為一項賺錢的工業，養活很多英國人，不論是寄宿中學或大學，都很積極招收海外學生吸金，英國大學本土學生收9000鎊，海外學生收16000鎊，從大學財政角度來看收海外學生有著數。


很多朋友的仔女在英國讀中五至大學，每名學生六年花費約240萬港元(約半層樓的價錢或一個中產家庭的多年積蓄)。我估計香港留學生在英國的教育消費每年超過64億港元 (16000名學生 x $400,000)

Unlike Ivy league, Oxbridge do not really look for 文武全才 but concentrate primarily on academic potentials.  Of course, it means much more than just academic results.

The statistics do not support the above statement but rather the other way round:

知唔知IB學生取得幾多分呢？

牛津 offer 一般是38-40 (out of 45)，劍橋是40-41，收到offer 的學生都在這個範圍內，單講成績不是太高。事實上，絕大部份英國大學 IB 40分都收，再加上交海外學生學費就更容易入讀。

香港的IB學生很多都可以拿到40分以上，牛津劍橋收生不只看成績，還考慮其他因素(interview，personal statement，scholarship，名校出生)。朋友在將軍澳直資讀，IB predicted grade 43/45，兩年前申請劍橋失敗

好犀利! 相信SPCC相當於英國的Westminster，相輔相成。
