名校培育A-Level 狀元優勢是否仍然存在

我覺得出國起碼都睇多左野,叫個家長唔好坐係個井度....出去行下啦

你的意見，都幾同意，不過我亦我聽過有家長話，讀唔掂先出國讀，出親去讀個d都係唔掂架，叻都留港讀窩!

但我覺得每人行的路都不同，唔可一概而論，有機會去見識，當然要試下啦，讀萬卷書不如行萬里路嗎 !

其實人地坐井唔坐井都無乜所為啦，個人選擇嗎，應專重的。

其實出唔出國讀書都好個人意願，但一言堂就因反對而反對的論調就真好有保留啦!

我覺得就算係香港讀完大學，如有機會都應該出國讀多個course 又好/ 旅遊一段時間亦好，見下世面都未嘗係好事，個人胸襟都會廣闊好多。

兒女要起飛真係唔該阻止，應祝福佢可高飛添亞 ，唔通想個細路大個後仲成日痴住個亞媽 ？

In my opinion, 商科 is easier to get A than 文科.

我的A-level科目是Business Studies, Economics, Pure Mathematics, Accounting, 當然還有 Use of English。 Pure Mathematics科目，要和理科生競爭，而Economics，亦是要和文科生爭。但因為科目組合適合自己，所以讀得好好多。[/quote]

But it is very very hard to get 'A' in art subjects such as English Literature, chinese literature, history, chinese history!?  
N years ago, 我的A-level科目是English Literature, Economics, Geography, and Use of English。 The result is 3A, but Eng Lit is D.  If I changed to 讀商科 and take Accounting and Business Studies instead of Eng Lit, i think I can get 5 A.

BoBoCute，

你可能真的錯失了機會拿5A。

今天A-Level English Lit.已很少人讀。2005年的English Lit Grade A比率是9.3%。十人應考，其中一個會拿Grade A。

ChiChiPaPa,
Do you know the distinction rate of other subjects?  Is it about the same for all subjects?
I understand why very few people choose Eng. Lit as A-Level subject.  One has to be very very good at English in order to master this subject.

BoBoCute，

其實很高興聽到你讀English Lit。你的英文一定很好。

現在變了很多，2005年只有108人應考AL English Lit。AL English Lit已再不是文科的主要科目。文科主科Geography的應考人數是6638，而商科主科Accounting的應考人數已是4362。入恒商，入application form的minimum requirement是會考20分。現今，商科的競爭不少於文科。

以下是一些科目的Grade A%：

A. Maths. 6.1%
Art 8.8%
Biology 2.1%
Business Studies 4%
Chemistry 3.3%
Chinese History 2.8%
Chinese Lit. 4.9%
Computer Studies 2%
Economics 3%
Engineering Science 0.5%
Geography 4%
Government and Public Affairs 6.6%
History 4.2%
Music 6.3%
Physics 4%
Accounts 3.6%
Psychology 5.9%
Pure Mathematics 4.3%

ChiChiPaPa,
It's nice talking with you.

Only 108 students taking Eng Lit!

I was forced to take Eng Lit.  My school picked some top English students to take Eng Lit.  If you did not get 'A' at HKCEE English, there's no chance of taking Eng Lit.  So it ended up only top students would take Eng Lit as A-level subject.
As my English was really not that good, I picked Psychology at first.  However, the school told me that Psychology class would give preference to those weaker in English.  At that time, no one wanted to take Eng Lit because it's difficult to get 'A' in Eng Lit as compared to other subjects.  You have to be the 'top' of the top to perform well in this subject.
This may be one of the  reasons why traditional schools did not perform as good as expected.  Only traditional schools offer Eng Lit as A-level subject.  Fierce competition among top students in top schools.

" 香港讀唔掂先出國讀 "
唔係呀麻 !
廿年前，我做女的時候，真係好多人咁話。
唔係而家重有人係咁講呀。
香港有咁多間大學，唔係真係咁難入卦？

真係有人咁話!

老實如能力許可，又考到間出面好的學校，點解唔去試下 ？見見世面無壞，係香港點話叻都得係香港(一個區)，見下世面就知世界係點樣，真正叻人係點樣。

如果考到外國好既大學, 將來想留係香港工作又得, 去外國工作又得.  如果只係讀香港既大學, 選擇相對會細左.  始終學歷跟自己成世, 有得選擇梗係出外面見識見識, 留多條路比自己.

Why your school doesn't offer some flexibility?
At my time, my school allows arts students to choose freely among the following subjects:
Economics, Geography, History, Chinese History, Chinese Literature

[quote]

ha8mo,

I think the school wants to average out the no. of students in each class.  If, say, in extreme case, only 2 students are willing to take Eng Lit, the school cannot offer such a course with a tutor teaching only 2 students in a class.

我見到有人話
因為傳統名校冇開某D商科科目
所以有部分學生想讀商科就去左恒商

咁樣會唔會引發出以下既情況？
就係名校冇開某D科
令到果科少左較強學生考
平均成績冇扯到咁痕
拎A變得較其他多學校開既科目易

Quite possible!

如果以現時香港既大學學費來計，出國其實都抵玩，不過最緊要有心讀同埋能夠或者肯適應外國生活

咁我諗又唔係個個都讀唔掂既, 我親戚個女小學每年都五名之內, 但係佢諗住中三都送個女出去讀, 原因係唔信任香港教育制度, 同埋唔想個女讀香港既大學(佢話因為香港某些既大學生質素越來越差), 而且, 出到去可以搏頂尖名校, 如牛津、劍橋etc...........

This theory does not apply at all.  It always back to the point that whether that Uni is good or not.

Back to the original question on this thread.  I believe the attractive bit of "famous schools" is their students are more average instead of just one or two super outstanding.
