Oxbridge interviews will normally be arranged in early Dec 2015 and (conditional) offers will be sent out in early Jan 2016.

朋友金句:盡人事，聽天命

我都係咁諗，凡事盡力而為，之後聽天尤命。

Agreed.

I know a case a couple of years ago when an IB school partnered with one of such agents to provide coaching for Oxbridge applications.  A selection exercise was first carried out by the agent to pick some students of good potentials from the school.  The agent failed to pick the school's top student to join the coaching scheme who finally got a place to read law in Oxford. All students who were coached by the agent failed in their subsequent Oxbridge applications.  Lesson learnt?  Those students of Oxbridge calibre will find their place in these top universities one way or another, with or without these "agents".

This kind of "agent" is not actually a agent as we normally understand. They usually called themself as college consultants. They are very popular for US college (ie University) application. Some of them will also do UK oxbridge too. They charge like a package range from 100K to 500K, departing when you start hiring them (most of study will start from G9 until G12, cause US college will look at students profile for last 4 years before admission), how strong is the student profile etc. Their package include many things, not merely making application for particular college.

介意透露有Oxbridge offer 嗎？

Oxbridge application 十一月底才出 interview shortlist，個別不用 admission test / written work 的科目，會較早收到通知。 十二月 x'mas 前會完成 interview， 一月初出 offer。

我覺得在英國的香港學生，只要不是完全放任不讀書的話，不論成績如何，都一定入到大學，而且，入的都是香港人不認識、 但當地人很欣賞的大學， ranking 未必很高，但有其地位與價值。 放眼世界，在另一層面，可以這樣理解。

幫推吓*驚嚇*是什麽??

勁！阿大同阿細鍾意睇日本卡通，但又唔想學日文，以前小學有得免費學都唔學，真係俾佢地激死。自己就想學，可惜冇時間又冇錢。

Fast track U application may let the student have peace of mind when an early (conditional) offer is received.  However, it is not advisable to apply all target U's through fast track.  If the student is bright enough, s/he will receive offers from many U's at an early stage and be asked to pay deposits at the same time.  Unless paying multiple deposits is not a concern at all, apply only the U of first priority through fast track is recommended.

我之前講過，港大只會繼續沈淪，排名只會繼續下跌，此大學已不是學術行先，亦不會維持「有容乃大」既作風，雖然都係咁難入，但…算把啦！當然，亦有好多家長以入到此校為榮，咁我惟有祝佢地成功及好運吧！

講住先，要去日本上堂 。。。又幫推*驚嚇*??
