Oh my goodness.  As a mom, I studied in LS from kindergarden to Form 5 in HK, but I cannot even read the Chinese HL paper.  For the Chinese SL paper, I just barely 90% understand.  It is impossible fo ...

I attended the CUHK non-JUPAS admission talk last year, the officer recommended some students to ask for waiver in Chinese generally (Overseas curricullum, I am not sure IB is eligible or not). Ask him to send a email to the targeted university to clarify, no harm to try...... of course, can be in English....

After reading the Chinese A exam paper, I think some of you may understand why in CIS, more than 75% of students study Chinese as a 1st language in MYP, while less than 30% of students take Chinese A  ...

Yes or no....

If the kid can master the rubic and have certain level of extensive reading in Chinese, he will be fine, I mean pass or 5~6 not 7.

Aside from 2 students getting the perfect score of 45, CDNIS's average score is 35.  The result is very impressive as it is only CDNIS's second batch of IB graduates.

Impressive.....

my daughter will probably pick econ chem and bio, or business chem bio, or history chem bio. which one is better in terms of career? (she might be doing medicine or business)
All combinations are good for medicine and business. if she may take economics or quantitative finance at university level, maths may need HL - 7.

The school suggests 3 HL and 3 SL. That will be Chi A1 HL Eng A1 SL Maths SL Econ SL Chem HL Bio HL. Is this combination fine for Hong Kong students?
Which year your daughter sit for IBDP? From 2013 onward no A1, A2, B, only A & B. Pls check with teachers. Personally, I suggest her to consider Maths HL instead of Chinese HL. The combination may be better.

In that case, her choices are pretty open.

Does Cambridge Medicine require Physics? I saw that in your other comments.

No, my son picked Physics only. He picked Chem, Phy & Economics.

You can check the Cambridge website or the student room website which has the best info for medicine in UK.

one more question, what's the difference between Language + Literature and sole Literature?

Language + literature - less literatures, more on business communication, different appreciation of materials, like poster, drama...... that what I know right now.
