MCS, SMCC, BPS, QES, YWG, SSGC,曾肇添 Vs 林護

spaceant

My daughter is B1 and want to choose two schools from the above from 自行.  

Criteria for selection: academic first, then location and reputation.  Academically , I would focus on 5級或以上 - 4主科平均 (%) and 3大聯招.   Based on the available information above this forum, I have done some research for the past three years.  However, there are some schools that didn't provide some or all info.  

MCS -  only 3大聯招 ~ 51% to 55% (2017 - 2018) to 55%.  Can't compare if MCS is on par or better than QES / BPS.
SMCC - 3大聯招 54% (2017) 44% (2018);  5級或以上 - 4主科平均  48% (2017).  i was told that it dropped substantially to 20+%.  THIS IS A SUBSTANTIAL DROP if the info is correct.
SSGC - Not all info is available, is the school performance dropping?
曾肇添 - No info is given on 5級或以上 - 4主科平均

Any parents can fill up the missing info?  Can any give valuable comment on the ranking based on my criteria?

Many thanks!!

Yes, did go to BPS and YWG admission talks last year and QES's open day.  However, SMCC and MCS don't arrange any admission talk.

SSGC有得報啦！

你List out既都係全港性競爭，全部都係傳統名校，返而會帶阿女聽同參觀 等佢自己感受下鍾意邊間。

MCS有攪funfair, 之前識朋友女入面讀買飛，但其實見去到門口已經有大姐姐好熱情招待，可以即場買飛。

Could any parents provide info about MCS's "5級或以上 - 4主科平均%" from 2017 to 2019 and 2019's  "3大聯招 %" if available? And  SMCC's "5級或以上 - 4主科平均%" for 2018 and 2019; and 2019's "3大聯招 %"


I want to do a scientific comparison with track records not on feeling.

As mentioned by others, all the listed schools are top schools in HK.  Each of them can make your daughter top student (ACADEMICALLY). However, not all of them can provide an enjoyable life for your daughter.  I think finding the one most suits your daughter is more important than historical academic results.  
I was struggle when my son told me he did not want to go to my secondary school (LSC) two years ago.  As long as he is happy, I let him decide (of coz, within a reasonable range). Now, he is happy and enjoys his school life.

To be honest, I disagree it is a math and need to do scientifically.

如果連greenapple同hkpapa都無資料既話……大概無人会有~除非你逐间学校contact有女讀紧既家長，睇下有無校內公佈資料。

MCS提供四年平均數

另外：以上咁多間，看三大已經沒有什麼意思，應該看入什麼科

MCS整體同意，班囡讀書氣氛不是太盛。

自主學習，反而我又喜歡，不太想學校谷及逼，相對很輕鬆。

但成日叫捐錢，便有少少保留，完全冇壓力，自願式，只是派一張通告，一年大約三、四張通告，盆菜宴、慈善跑等，可以寫「0」，基本上有冇捐錢冇人知，聽不到不捐錢有任何壓力！

古蹟方面，政府100%一草一木全包保養，捐款只是瑪記教育基金。

According to the information provided in parents' talk, 3大聯招(2018) (by institution) 是56.9%,
5級或以上 - 37.6%, 4級或以上 - 79.3%

你想要的數據，我估好難有人俾到，除非你識校長
如果注重學術，讀書風氣，老師睇的緊，我諗要考慮林護，曾記，SMCC。SMCC雖然成績下滑，不過應該是一條龍之後，太多同學要補底而拖累，學校本身教學，讀書風氣，應該都有咁上下。

比較輕松又成績比較穩定的，可能要考慮MCS。

YWG近年成績不太理想，雖然搬回新校舍會改善生源，但是我覺得本身學校應該都不屬於push academic 果種，未必適合你。

SSGC今年進步大，不過之前不算突出，要再觀望。

BPS，QES唔熟悉，之前冇put on my list

Thanks for the info!  MCS's academic results are impressive.  I wonder if there is any subsidised school that can excel her.
My daughter and I have already had preferences subjectively, in terms of freedom vs strict teaching style, location, travelling safety, travelling time, uniform style, availability of ECAs that she likes, etc.

Well, having said that I am comparing these two criteria in ranking the mentioned schools, I have not said that I will choose two schools for 自行 based on the analysis.  This is solely an analysis.  I just want to "concur" that my choices are prudent and right.


Using stock or security market as an analogy, I am not willing to take the risk to buy a security that its stock price is dropping or plunging.

但選MCS要好小心，建議在EK 搜尋有關的分享的帖，2011年開始，有個前輩冇記錯網名mcl1128，好多分享，分享好真、好豐富⋯⋯⋯學校風格十年冇變過，如果錯配便有以上負評，讀書氣氛不盛、老師hea教、又冇乜功課、又少默測考等等！

但到今天亞囡中二，我還未找到原因，DSE成績可以咁亮麗，神蹟一般的好成績，相對班囡的付出，咁讀咁玩法！

樓主你list嗰幾間係大藍籌，每年DSE成績上落唔會好大，如果有信心囡囡自行考到，就交由佢自己揀2間，以上一間中學是但入到都開心又放心。

有港島、九龍、新界

有全谷型、有自主型

有男女校、有齋校


基本上⋯不太難選擇！

"According to the information provided in parents' talk, 3大聯招(2018) 是56.9%,

Thanks for your input, but one figure is not in-line with what I can find in EK.


Your figure for 3大聯招(2018) is 56.9% vs 44.37% by greenapple1093 in https://www.edu-kingdom.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=3659724&extra=page%3D1

5級或以上 - 37.6%, 4級或以上 - 79.3% - Are these figures for "all subjects"?

"曾肇添 - No info is given on 5級或以上 - 4主科平均"

Thanks for your info.  The above info can be founded in EK by greenapple1093 though there are some minor differences:
40.9% Vs 40.8%
78.7% Vs 78.5%
37.7% Vs 37.4%

However, I want to have additional info for "4 cores subjects" - 4 or above and 5 or above.

Anyway, thanks indeed!
