I don't really have a view since my kids are still young.  The intention is for them to do two language A but it is really up to their desires and abilities.  Doubt it will be my choice at the end of the day.

有冇人知啓思今年ib成績如何？謝謝！

I have some comments on the interpretation of IB results:-

(1)  Most of the subjects in IB have Higher Level (HL) and Standard level (SL).  There are big differences between HL and SL in terms of breadth and depth.  The content in HL subjects requires 240 teaching hours versus 150 hours for SL.  Even two students get the same IB score, their levels of achievement are different depending on how many SL/HL subjects they took.  Universities know the differences. In fact, the UCAS tariff gives 130 points to a Level 7 @HL and only 86 points @SL.  Some schools only offer subjects at SL, especially English & Chinese.

(2) the average score of a school is not very meaningful because it may be affected by a few good/bad performers.  For example, a bad performer with a score of 20 may pull down the average score of a school significantly.     

(3)  the 40+% is more meaningful because it indicates the likelihood of a student getting a good IB score if he/she works hard.

Thank You.  First page updated.  

I also changed all of the ESF schools, except DC, to not just IB only since I wasn't aware that there are such a large number of BTEC students (10-15% based on Island School and KGV).  Please let me know if this is not correct.

High BTEC percentage partially explains DC low score.  I think DC/RC do nit seem to have the BTEC option and all students have to do IB.  if ESF  force these BTEC students to do IB. the score would have been significantly lower.

IB考試完全不是一試定生死，兩年間不停地被照肺，不停地交計分功課，初步構有問題，老師已經把功課退回要求重做又重做，有困難的學生，不會入左禁區，準備射龍門，才知道自己得21,22分的。期間可以改善的空間和時間是有的，PG是老早知道了，而PG對申請入心儀大學的幫助極大，最終的成績與PG是出奇的吻合居多。

考得比同窗同學有如此大差別，估計這兩年是家庭人際等出了大問題，感覺是有點自我放棄了。

I think the average usually reflects all students

Do you remember we discussed about it last year and we concluded that non diploma holder is not count in the average.

也許我是前輩，但肯定不是高人啊！
不知道其他人的想法，自己就肯定唔會掙扎了。年初小女開始揀IB語文時，中文老師的提議是這樣的：


中文A1 SL   注重文學分析和思考，當中有範文書籍十多本（IB有中文文學書單，各校老師可精心挑選若干本作各校考生鑚硏），合適思維力和分析力高的學生。
中文Mandarin B HL, 注重寫作和語文水平。

當時問兩個subject中，按小女的水平，那個比較保險，她說難以估，但女女是思考型孩子，讀A1還是容易點。再問PG,是坐5望6，因A1拿7比較難，而修mandarinB,PG也是坐5，但拿7分的机會大點。

對老師的說法是半信半疑，好惊中文系想推多些學生修Chinese A來揚名立萬，氹多些人讀Chinese A。於是在外再問其他IB中文老師，（其中一個是小女的課外老師）原來他們的見解也相同，連對女兒的PG見解也如學校老師，十分準確的。

最終交番比阿女自己選，當時佢似乎話讀Chinese A 喎。

按以上經歷，看來ISF並非為求高分而減少孩子念bilingual diploma 的！有B/D當然好，沒有也沒大影響的。今天是高分數年代，每科失掉一兩分應該好傷喎！

你呢個係理性分析，好 logical，但有 D 只會執住一兩個拿唔到 diploma 的大聲批評。IB pass 只係 4 分，其實真係唔難，香港各 IB school 都  above world average，最低 average 都有 31 分，即係無論學校定學生都唔差差。拿唔到 diploma，應該係呢個學生有特別狀況。
近幾年多了 IB 學校，帶了港式心態入 IB，見你有學校有學生唔掂，重唔大大聲講？如果到自己學校有同一情形時，就 double standard 話好少事。每年放榜，都非常精采。

HKTHK, 去年我們評論DBS，不應只公佈lBDP成績，不公佈DSE成績，一下應該雨樣都公佈，一下兩樣都不公佈，今年有些不尋常，可能兩樣都不公佈，又或者遲些一齊公佈。

成年冇上DBS網頁，我現在才發現今年連 conditional offers 都不再公佈，聽阿仔講今年師弟CO都不錯。

也許今年DBS選擇低調D，我之前想看看它今年的CO都發現無公佈，或者等埋DSE一齊？
