英國教育制度

halo, 我係英國讀緊書, 希望幫到你丫=]

1) igcse係咪等於舊制gce a level既ordinary level?

>> 唔係, igcse 即係international gcse, 即係英國既會考, 而gce a level 係英國既高考. gcse 係會比gce 易, 所以如果要入大學的話, 係要考gce a level.

2)我想2015年5-6月考igcse,想問通常d人pick幾多科? I mean 大學通常睇/參考你幾多科?

>> 一般黎講4科係最好 (唔計中文). 而oxbridge 既話, 最好多1~2科, 雖然佢冇話一定要你讀咁多, 但係好多人apply 都會有4~5科, show 到俾大學睇你係capable 既. 而你ovsrseas 亦要考ielts.

3) 仲有想知道如果igcse等於舊制gce a level既ordinary level,當我考得好,有冇可能可以apply到 oxbridge的暫取生? (如大部分為a*)

>> 首先, 見1) igcse 係唔同gce 既, 所以你要考既應該係gce. 而同時, 因為oxbridge 係難入, 最好gcse 同gce 都有考, 咁俾大學一個好既reference. 而我估你既意思係拎到offer. 呢個就要睇你幾樣野. 一係你hk 讀邊間中學, 因為oxbridge 係會知道果間中學係hk 係唔係好top 既. 而第2係睇你有冇多原化既活動, 因為大把人都有全a*, 你要俾到大學睇你同果d 都係全a* 既人有乜野唔同. 而你唔應該aim 大部分係a*, 因為最好要全a* 個機會先會再高少少. 同埋oxbridge 一定會有interview 既, 所以唔係只睇成績, 如果你成績好, 但係interview 唔得的話, 都係會reject. 我果時去oxford inerview,都in 左3次...

3) 因為其實我想讀medic,除左oxbridge之外,英國有咩大學既醫學院都好勁?

>> 如果要讀英國medics 既話, 要考bmat/ukcat, 冇考既話, 大學係唔consider. 二黎英國既medics 位有限, 可以話俾hk 仲要難入 (因為你唔係英國人, 讀完難搵到placement, 而且大學怕你讀完會番hk, 變左浪費resources 去train 一個醫生). 所以一間學生可能只會得幾個偽overseas 既醫生. 呢個你要留意. 你應該睇下有冇一d back up 既大學, 如果入唔到仲可以讀一d同medics 有關既科. 你可以考慮一下imperial college london, cardiff. 呢2間都唔錯. ucas 只可以apply 4間medicsschool. 最好搵一d 要求低少少既. 因為你以overseas學生apply, 會更難入.

希望幫到你丫, 有d咩可以再email我的=]

1. Not exactly.

Before GCSE (including IGCSE) has been introduced, there are 2 level of GCS - Ordinary level (O-Level) and Advanced level (A-Level)

GCSE is simply a replacement of GCE O-Level.

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Certificate_of_Secondary_Education)

2. Not less than 6 subjects. In a simple way to explain, GCSE is equivalent to HKCEE.

The "I" in IGCSE simply represents "International" and that GCSE is offered through Cambridge University. It is still the same kind of GCSE.

3. Not necessary. The media has reported in many instances, your results are not the only consideration for admission.

What you need to focus is an accredited school that you can complete and get your license.
