Conditional Offer for Non JUPAS (IB)

Artie

Oh. Interesting. My son's school did give predicated score for EE+TOK. There is actually a space for him to submit the predicated EE+TOK grades on the online form. He only applied to CUHK so not sure about other universities.

Conditional Offer 睇吾睇EE and TOK？ 6 modules reflected the student's academic profile, core - they ...

Your son applied to 神科 with HKU and CUHK and those might be different?
May be most other programs do give conditional offers.

ib有45分是狀元，未出成績一早收咗見41分可入医的。。

Do you know what you are talking about?
You do not seem to know much about how the "predicted grades" and "final grades" work.

PG 45 is not 狀元。
You need a final grades of 45 to be named as 狀元.

As far as I know, you need a PG of 44 (or may be at least a PG of 43) to even get into the interview stage of medicine.
The 41 you said, is probably a condition only.

IB放榜前一日大學一早知狀元是誰

IB results can be checked online.
If I remember it right, the time we could login to check the results was afternoon Hong Kong time.
Students of course would apply in advance to medical school. Otherwise, how can medical schools get their phone number? I am not exactly sure when universities can get hold of applicant's final IB grades. But since everything is done electronically, I am not surprised universities get the information at the same time students and secondary schools get them. Thus universities can thus initiate the phone calls right after the results are released, and so it would be in the evening hong kong time.
There is no such thing as IB放榜前一日 anyone knows the result.
Hong Kong newspaper coverage can only be done on the next day (or even after). May be that is why there was misunderstanding.

I would not comment on AL as I am not exactly familiar.
Final IB grades is roughly 20-30% internal assessment score, and 70-80% public exam score.
The only subject that has no public exam is I think visual arts. They have to deal with external crit instead of a written exam.
So the PG (which is based on internal assessments plus teachers prediction) can be different from final IB score.
However like I said, PG are good and fair estimate of students final grades. But anything can happen. All really depends on the performance (and luck) of students at the May exams.

Asked HKU Admission Office.  If a student's PG is not good enough to secure a ...

For all universities (HK or overseas), they will consider the "latest" grades available.
Before the FG is released, you have to rely on the PG.
But once the FG is out, they no longer care what your PG was and they do not really care whether your PG was accurate.

I recalled an IB perfect score student claimed he got a call from HKU medicine offering a place for him even though he had not applied.  That was in the news last year or so.  Not sure how accurate it was.

I remembered that discussion one year ago.
I think someone shared that the student did apply to other programs at HKU.
Otherwise, how do you think they got his number?

題外話。

如果學生沒有申請某一課程，但收生辦事處將學生個人資料/私隠未經許可之下，告知非處理有關資料 ...

Honestly, it is really hard to say what exactly happened. It might not be the whole story the student revealed. I am sure there are much more full scores students that were being contacted once results were out. But so far, not many students let these cats out. I have total respect to those that kept these matters to private.

以今年為例，5/7/2016放榜，學校在5/7/2016取得所有學生成績，學生可在6/7/2016上 ibo 網查詢成績。 有些學 ...

So that solved the mystery.
HKU cannot possibly know who got full score early unless secondary schools informed them.
