有無爸媽同我一樣， 仔女而家響英國upper six, 報緊明年入大學？我個仔會報UCAS, priority 響英國讀大學，但諗住多手準備報埋香港non-JUPAS.

聽日HKUST open day, 我打算幫阿仔去聽吓admission process 同佢想報嗰科嘅資料，你哋有無打算去？

我女兒后年入大學，牛津是不是要提交表格，其餘的大學在后後一月先報？，她準備報牛津的歷史系。 ...

謝謝，知道，女兒只喜歡牛津的歷史系，教她的歷史老師也是牛津的，如果她報歷史及法律，要寫兩份ps，對不對 ...

yes u are supposed to apply for one subject with the 5 UCAS choices, as only one PS Is allowed and the main point of the PS is to demonstrate your passion in that particular subject.

我仔最想讀materials science 但唔係好多大學有offer this course, 本來佢諗住第五個choice 揀civil engineering, 最後都係寧願揀返materials.

你個女嘅case 比我會英國報history,香港報law, 反正香港嘅history courses 應該爭好遠。

我的意思是申請牛津歷史系寫一份ps，再申請其他lse ucl kcl等大學的法律系，又要寫一份ps。是這樣嗎？
她對 ...

your way doesnt work. 你只可以選擇5個courses (通常係from 5間大學）with 一份personal statement. 所以揀兩科好唔同嘅科會好危險。

我都係小朋友而家響英國upper six, 明年入大學。會報UCAS ＋ 香港 non-JUPAS.

hi! 終於有同道中人！

你小朋友會報邊科？

係呀我知HKUST 已經接受報名，但阿仔而家響英國忙緊報UCAS,我諗住佢十月中返香港時先報HKUST, 我可以幫下手，或者佢可以自己打去HKUST 問嘢。

另外等NOV 4 HKU open day, too bad 到時阿仔又返咗英國lu, 我又要代佢去。

太好了，找到同道中人。

我女很喜歡Psychology，所以會 focus HKU, CU or maybe CityU。請問你知不知A LEV ...

我仔UCAS 報Materials Science/Engineering. HKUST 同HKU 報civil/mechanical/Aerospace Engineering (not confirmed yet), psychology 我唔知， HKUST engineering 話要A*AA-A*A*A* 喎。我心諗呢個成績入Oxbridge 或者 Imperial 啦！

我仔都係prefer 英國大學，報香港unis for back up.

如香港只用作back up, 無須fast track 階段報, accept offer 要交$10000留位費，唔讀無得退
...

ic, 但如果唔fast track機會會唔會細咗？

據我知中大，港大和科大也有fast track, 截止日期可上綱 ...

咁其實fast track 對學生好似無乜著數？

阿仔同學校今日submit 咗 UCAS 啦，係咪有啲大學好快出conditional offer?

呢到有家長提議HKUST 唔洗入fast track, 可以等main round? 咁做係咪可以等收曬英國啲COs 先考慮cofirm HKUST 嘅CO? 因為阿仔prefer 留英國讀大學，如果係佢心水三間其中一間。

孩子去年十月中前遞交UCAS, 十一月初便已经收到其中一間英国大学的conditional offer, 然后陸陸續續於一月 ...

good! your son's case serves as a close reference for my son!
May I ask when did your son apply for UST then if it’s main round?
And, do u mind telling me which uni your son goes eventually?

My kid applied for HKUST (main round) in late November if I remembered correctly.

thanks!

嘩，個CO 要求一啲都唔高，咁即係話你女嘅PG及面試好好，所以佢哋好想收你女！

我仔嘅同學好慘，meet 5到 ...

IC 都好好啦！ 我個仔考到IC 應該已經好開心！

你朋友個仔爭幾多分meet 唔到Cambridge offer? 我聽其他家長話Cambridge 都有少少情講，爭少少求情兩日俾返個offer, 但LSE 就一啲情都無得講喎。

唔緊要。
係呀阿仔學校oxbridge counselor 都話Cambridge 啲CO 係 tough 好多，尤其science 科目，所以佢好多同學轉呔報Oxford!

45/45 as CO is crazy! Oxbridge counsellor at my son’s school also quoted an example of CO being 4A*! Not sure if that’s real or just rumour!

I joked that in such case, maybe this year all applicants turn to Oxford and make it over subscribed and more competitive than Cambridge!!
