可以，我個仔都係F4考咗，仲要英國F4係比香港F4細一年

可否進取一點，在中四考AL Maths, 甚少人提這樣做，其實我未看過課程上的差異，但小女的數比中文好，只想到考得中文可否考數呢？

GCE AL 中文是香港初中程度，maths係HKAL程度(雖然出卷較淺）。

學校肯唔肯幫忙提早報考係一個問題？

I don't think so. It would be too aggressive. Heard that AL Chinese is not very hard as its "as second language". However AL math is another story! My son is good at Math. He told me in their top set they had finished teaching GCSE Math in F.4 and now teaching Further Math in F.5, but I guess it is still GCSE syllabus.

Some U's or their individual departments may prefer applicants who take their A-level exams all at the same time, e.g. 3 A-levels in Year 13.  These U's may want to see if the applicant can cope with such a sizable workload.  Admission policies may differ for A-levels taken early, or if these will be included in their conditional offers made.

咁其實 AL 中文即係計定唔計呢？

想問下，如果有 interview, 係咪成功左一半，定係人都有機會 interview 架；係咪間間U都係咁，定一DD？

似乎吾會計落conditional offer 嗰三科，但如有外文/中文as 第四丶五科應該會加少少well-balanced (如果mainly take science subjects) 丶all rounded 的印象分？

From Cambridge's official website:

"We invite everyone who has a realistic chance of being offered a place to attend an interview – more than 80 per cent of our applicants each year."

For sciences, about one out of five applicants was successful in 2014.

Not every UK university require interview.  Oxbridge application must have interview. For Cambridge, about 80% of applicants invited for interview, while Oxford selects less than 40% applicants for interview.

For competitive course, the offer rate is lower. The following data is 2014

Natural Science offer given 731 out of 3170 = 23%
Law 248 / 1047 = 23.7%
Medicine 281 / 1521 = 18.5%
Architecture 56 / 403 = 13.9% (the most competitive course)

Thanks, how about other top Univ e.g. Imperial Colleage in London? Same? Not every 1 has chance to interview? Or it depends on subjects?

What I quoted is meant to show how competitiveness in different subjects. Of course, individual  offer rate will vastly different depending on so many factors on students' background.

For ICL, interview is depending on subjects. For UK base students, they select students based on the information provided on the UCAS application, we will either invite you to one of our recruitment days, or make a decision either to offer or reject. For HK base students, they sometime invite them to meet at their HK education fair.

如果報的是medicine or dentistry，就無論那間大學都要面試。

但med and den不是很難有實習機會嗎？冇實習，便難畢業了。

skate

其實係！但我又睇到 EK 嘅家長話係會揾到實習機會

有冇實習 (houseman) 機會，同畢業是兩回事。讀書、考試合格就可以畢業取 degree。只是冇實習的話、就影響係當地嘅註冊。
