英國嘅 Foundation course

halo, 我係英國讀緊書, 希望幫到你丫=]

1) 我的女兒現在多倫多讀書 grade 11 相當於香港嘅中五，現在想送女兒去英國讀 Foundation 未知如何 ? 何否給我意見 ?

>> 我會覺得呢個唔係一個最好既選擇, 因為一黎佢已經係多倫多, 咁佢已經習慣左果邊既生活, 如果要佢轉去英國既話, 又要再適應, 可以會難既, 二黎如果係係果邊讀緊grade 11, 應該係可以考佢地果邊既exam, 就可以升大學,所以如果佢係讀得黎的話, 最好俾佢考完個public exam 先既, 因為呢個會係最正常既入大學方法.

>> 個人唔係太suggest foundation, 因為foundation 有少少似hk 既ive, 係俾一d成績唔係太好, 入唔到大學既人讀既, 如果佢讀得黎既話, 又駛乜要多用一年讀foundation 呢? 直接用佢係多倫多既中學成績入英國大學都可以. 而同時, 要留意既係, foundation 有得讀既大學唔多, 而provide 呢一d foundation 既大學亦唔係太出名, ranking 不太高, 要升番上原校亦唔係100%. 而想用foundation 去apply top 大學, top 大學唔consider foundation, 所以到頭黎只會end up 入到中等大學,. 唔係太值得咁做.

>> 如果你係aim 想入英國top/好既大學, 又好想佢早d 過黎英國既話, 咁不如俾佢讀完grade 11, 再去英國既中學讀gce, 考gce 黎入大學, 咁入到英國好既大學既機會會比較高. 我會treat foundation 做last resources...

希望幫到你丫, 有d咩可以再email我的=]

I strongly suggest against.

1. Even as a Commonwealth country, Canada use a different education system (which is similar to the U.S.)

2. Due to difference in system, your daughter is not yet qualified for foundation courses. The only thing that it can work is your daughter take GCSE.

3. Unless it is a necessity, going to the U.K. will put additional unnecessary stress to your daughter.
