中三不妨考慮中四考IGCSE或兼讀OSSD/申請加拿大大學資料

小時了了

由於疫情關係幾乎全球學校停校又停課，見阿女自1月以來至今停課係屋企 Online上半朝堂，下午至夜晚太多時間了。另外，聽阿女講，佢呢兩個幾月學校 online 上堂，無係學校實體上堂學得多。

阿女S3上半年因為社會運動斷斷續續停課，而S3下半年因疫情關係1月下旬至今停課無了期，我自己擔心無了期停課，S3好似無咩學過就升高中了。上星期決定，阿女明年1月最遲5月自修考 IGCSE（同步有報名Online 上堂補習，明天第一堂 Online  Econ），好讓佢S3呢一年停課多過上堂嘅日子，唔好荒廢學習反而用停學期間多餘時間預備國際認可嘅公開試

阿女如果係香港讀高中及考DSE課程的話，佢會同步自修IAL，佢嘅高中考大學之路，詳情係以下帖有分享。

小女完成大學year 1，現在回顧過去，如果當初打算留香港升大學，真係用DSE成績報大學好過用OSSD。

反而，如果想去加拿大升大學，OSSD 有佢優勢。

如果想去英國升大學，OSSD 越來越多大學唔承認online course, 得不償失

小時了了

較早前有網友PM 我講, 明年開始 University of Manchester 亦開始唔承認 OSSD online course 嘅學歷.

越來越多大學唔承認OSSD online course 嘅學歷, 大家要留意, 考慮承擔風險

[澳紐] OSSD - 悉尼大學擬收緊中國學生入學要求

被發現學歷造假 大批澳洲中國留學生被遣返 悉尼大學擬收緊中國學生入學要求

澳洲悉尼大學近日取消大批中國留學生的簽證並遣返回中國，令當地市場嘩然。消息指不少中國留學生被發現學歷做假，而被發現學歷造假的學生所提供的文件，大多來自加拿大安大略的同一地區域內，該地區出現了大量線上私立學校提供虛假成績單的情況。而虛假的成績是來自加拿大安大略省課程體系的高中文憑考試（OSSD）。

根據有報道指出，作為今年剛剛殺入QS世界大學排名第19的悉尼大學，最近突然發現有大批學生利用偽造的高中文憑試成績和英語測試成績騙取入學資格，而這些學生大部份都來自中國。由於目前涉及到的學生人數眾多，這些學生也都將被立即取消簽證並遣返回中國。悉尼大學正計劃對中國公民提出更加嚴格的入學要求，接下來中國學生將要面臨更高的入學

從悉尼大學的一份內部調查報告顯示，在2023年1至5月，悉尼大學發現了64名學生在學歷上做假。從2022年起，在學歷信息上做假以騙取悉尼大學入學資格的事件激增，有超過250名准學生或在讀生遞交入學申請時資料造假。

而在2021年，此類事件僅有15宗。報告稱，造假學生多為中國公民或是有中國背景的人，悉尼大學非常重視這類事件，並且正式計劃重新引入中國教育部的文憑檢查，以防止有人騙取入學資格。雖然大部份造假資料在入學前就已經被發現，但仍有20%的造假者被發現時已經入學。

悉尼大學表示，學校在去年進行例行檢查時，發現了欺詐申請激增的情況，大多來自安大略省，為確保招生的公平性，悉尼大學只招收經過嚴格審核的學生，而且是完成面授教學的安大略省學生。

其實不只是悉尼大學，新南威爾斯大學也證實，2022年與加拿大假成績單有關的中國留學生欺詐事件數目激增。新南威爾斯大學表示在去年發現這情況後，立即對所有持安大略省中學文憑的申請人重新進行了審查，以確保他們學歷的真實性。

其實安大略省的假成績單激增，很有可能是為了繞過澳洲高校的英語語言IELTS考試的要求，對於擁有加拿大英語中學文憑的留學生而言，澳洲高校一般不會要求他們提供英語語言考試成績。

大學對OSSD 嘅要求.

小時了了

纯估計，以我及孩子自己了解及信心，如果孩子考DSE成績大约全部6科 level 4左右，極其量中文作文這部份或者可能level 5，如果以這樣成绩，绝對報唔到依家我報英國嗰 5 間大學及香港嘅科大及中文大學。所以，以我孩子為例，暫時可算係成功個案，但最终要等今年尾至明年初大學出 Conditional Offer 结果才能定論。

暫時肉眼可見用 OSSD課程(途徑) 提升咗我孩子能申請好啲嘅大學一大層次，但當中家長要額外支付6位數字金額嘅OSSD 學費，而孩子這2年同一時間讀2個課程及要做大量功課，尤其是孩子又要繼續應付依家讀緊嘅中學日常學習 (包括功課, 小測, 大測, 考試), 另一方面要交 OSSD 大量功課, 壓力真係都唔少, 世界上無免費午餐的。所以，大家真係要衡量自己家庭經濟負擔能力, 以及孩子是否承受到同一時間兼讀2個課壓力及時間管理分配。

最後，祝福大家孩子能考入心儀大學

2023 年1月為止, 孩子 OSSD 成績如下:

1) Grade 12 必修科 ENG4U - University English ( 大學英語 ) (70%功課分, 30%考試分) : 90％

2) Grade 12 必修科 MHF4U Advanced Maths ( 高等函数 ) (70%功課分, 30%考試分): 93％;

3) Grade 12 選修科 MCV4U - Calculus and Vectors ( 向量微積分 ) (70%功課分, 30%考試分): 97%

4) Grade 12 選修科 CGW4U - World Issues: A Geographic Analysis（世界問題：地理分析）(100%功課分):88%

5) Grade 12 選修科 MDM4U - Mathematics of Data Management ( 數據管理學 ) (70%功課分, 30%考試分) : 94%

6) Grade 12 選修科 HSB4U - Challenge and Change in Society ( 社會的挑戰與變革 ) (100%功課分) : 95％

溫馨提示及重申多一次:
我孩子讀嗰間網校只係以一間私人公司係香港註册(唔係香港教育局註册學校，香港教育局管唔到)， 有 "倒閉" "執笠"  風險, 如果真係執笠，後果喺無 OSSD 畢業証明及成績，如果學生係香港日校退學只讀網校，又如果執笠的話學生無中學畢業，呢個風險大家要留意及衡量風險承擔，後果自負

另外,英國有大學唔承認我孩子讀嗰間網校運作方式的

PS: 因為我承擔唔到孩子有機會無中學畢業證明，故我無論如何都要孩子係香港間日校繼續讀至S6畢業為止



**** 最後，會用 BNO VISA 去英國 University of Durham 讀 Geography ****

Comparison between HKDSE and International A-level - Business Studies and Accounting
The HKDSE Business, Accounting and Financial Studies (BAFS) syllabus is a comprehensive course covering Business skills as well as Bookkeeping and Accounting. It is Hong Kong centric, and it largely omits relevant content that may be examinable in other subjects (such as Economics.) It consists of a compulsory part and a choice of one (out of two) elective units. It maps poorly with the Edexcel International Advanced Level in both Business Studies and Accounting.

The following matrix highlights the overlap in the subjects concerned
HKDSE BAFS

	Compulsory	Accounting Module	Business Module
Business Studies Unit 1	5%	0%	5%
Business Studies Unit 2	10%	0%	50%
Business Studies Unit 3	5%	0%	10%
Business Studies Unit 4	0%	0%	0%
Accounting Unit 1	25%	65%	0%
Accounting Unit 2	0%	405	0%

The breakdown is listed below on the areas that are in International A-level, but not in the HKDSE syllabus.

In regards to the assessment methods of IAL exam, ITS would suggest HKDSE students working towards the IAL in Business Studies to work on data response questions in all units, multiple choice questions that require explanation in Unit 1 and Unit 2 and long essay questions in unit 3 and unit 4, as those techniques are not honed in the HKDSE system. Furthermore, HKDSE students working towards the IAL in Accounting should focus on evaluative techniques which are not honed in the HKDSE system.

Comparison between HKDSE and International A-level - Maths
The Edexcel International Advanced Level in Mathematics has a very flexible framework with options for candidates with different backgrounds and requirements. While the standard IAL in Mathematics consists of four modules - two compulsory modules (C12 and C34 together with two other modules of the candidate’s choice), it is also possible for candidates to pursue the qualification of IAS Mathematics with only two modules – in this case, the compulsory C12 with one more of the candidate’s choice. Alternatively, candidates may opt for the qualifications of A-level in Mathematics and A-level in Further Mathematics (2 A-levels’ worth), where candidates are examined in ten modules – where candidates must choose either F2 or F3 (or both) in addition to the compulsory modules C12, C34 and F1.
The 12 modules are divided into different areas of mathematics: Core, Further Pure, Mechanics, Statistics and Decision Mathematics. Each module is examined in one examination paper where calculators are allowed and most modules are examined in both January and June, with the modules F2, F3 and S3 being the exceptions. The core modules are worth twice as much as the other modules, so that each core module is worth one third of an IAL while other modules are each worth one sixth. Correspondingly, the examination time for the Core modules is 2.5 hours, as opposed to 1.5 hours for all other modules.
Candidates may choose option modules from one area (S1+S2) or across different areas (M1+S1) depending on their mathematical background and aspirations.

The following table illustrates the approximate proportion (in teaching time) of each IAL module taught in the HKDSE.

	Compulsory	Compulsory+M1	Compulsory+M2
C12	60%	85%	85%
C34	10%	40%	75%
F1	5%	5%	35%
F2	0%	0%	0%
F3	0%	0%	20%
M1	0%	0%	0%
M2	0%	0%	0%
M3	0%	0%	0%
S1	30%	70%	30%
S2	0%	25%	0%
S3	0%	30%	0%
D1	0%	0%	0%

As an example, a HKDSE candidate who chooses the DSE option module M1, can pursue the IAL in Mathematics with options S1 and S2 – where over 50% of the topics for the IAL has already been learnt. (1/3*85%+1/3*40%+1/6*70%+1/6*25%)

In a different example, a HKDSE candidate who chooses the DSE option module M2 can pursue the IAL in Mathematics with options F1 and F3 – where over 60% of the topics for the IAL has already been learnt. (1/3*85%+1/3*75%+1/6*35%+1/6*20%)

Note: IAL modules must normally be chosen “in order” so that M2 can only be chosen if M1 is, while M3 is also dependent on M2. The same is true for S1, S2 and S3, but, in the case for the Further Pure modules, F3 is only dependent on F1 and not on F2.

因為SAT subject test執笠嗎?

AP calculus係咪AB同BC卷都接受?

Hong Kong Minimum Admission Requirements: Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE): the completed diploma, including at least 2 elective subjects from Categories A and/or C. Subjects should include prerequisites for intended programs. Mathematics Module 1 (Calculus and Statistics) or Module 2 (Algebra and Calculus) is required for programs with the Calculus prerequisite.  Applicants who are not completing Module 1 or 2 may present Advanced Level Mathematics or AP Calculus as an alternative.   For admission requirements to the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering, refer to Engineering.

New for 2022 admission: Prerequisite subjects should be presented at Senior Year/Grade 12 level or as AP/IB. SAT Subject Tests cannot be used to satisfy Senior Year/Grade 12 level prerequisites.  Pre-Calculus cannot be used to satisfy the Calculus prerequisite.

可以階段性 update 一下如下:

1) 上星期六第一次考了IELTS, 總成绩6.5 (2年內唔洗再考了)

必修英文和數學咁高分，勁。個勢好好
