Really appreciate your sharing.  I am also struggling with IB or NSS.  Some people says if you do not do well in IB, unlike the other public exams you can't repeat since IB is a continuous assessment.  Do you have any ideas?

Grateful if you could also pm me the tutorial centres for English.  

Many thanks!

I find a link as follow:

http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1330689

They discussed about re-take the IBDP examination in UK.

1. You can retake the exam;
2. Top universities won't accept retake results; and
3. Second tiers or below universities will consider.

Thank you for your assistance.  Surely we don't want our kids to retake, but just want to understand the options available.

Thank you again!

i guess your kid studies either in SPCC or DBS. Both schools only offer elite and suitable students to take the IBDP program, I can't see your kid will have any problem.

Put LPCUWC as an example, they took some very good studnts from both DBS and SPCC. Now, those high calibre kids will stay in both DSS schools. Of course, LPCUWC still can fill those places with equivalent capable students from other schools.

No one can handle IB and NSS at the same time, total different curriulum. A school like DBS and SPCC will offer both NSS and IB, but student only choose any one stream and not both.

真道書院 Typical "IB approach" school.......

Add another few articles also from UK related to IB and AL. Have wider and fair comments for us to consider to minimise "Miscomprehension".

My understanding, students with expected score from their IB schools to apply university admission through UCAS (英國聯招、等同香港JUPAS) and based on that they may have a chance for interivew. After interview, the universities will notify the student the conditional offer. those students had an offer with higher score offer may not perform well in the interview. That's what I heard from the Oxbridge Admission Officers in last year's admission seminars in HK.

43       Excellent expected score with under-par interview performance
38-42  Excellent expected score with very good interview performance
Below 38 No chance for interview, Oxbridge (劍橋及牛津大學) stated that their admission based on purely academic not like US system.

In UK, GCE AL with 3As ~30%, 3As only not necessary will have a chance for interview.

Hi ANChan59,

Would you mind also PM me details of the two tutorial centres? Besides, what's your comments/ impressions on SPCC's IB course? Any differences between DBS and SPCC's IB course? Many thanks for your sharing.
