| sometimes I wonder what is the meaning of average points of 34 in relation to grades that we are familiar, and I found this from an uk independent school: "an average Diploma score of 34 points, equates to over 3 A* grades at A Level or on the UCAS tariff. 25 points, equats to over 3 B grades at A Level." the UCAS web site is here: http://www.ucas.com/students/ucas_tariff/tarifftables/ [ 本帖最後由 mattsmum 於 11-8-21 11:18 編輯 ] |

| 45 IB is too high . i mean "an average IB Diploma score of 34 points, equates to over 3 A* grades at A Level or on the UCAS tariff. IB diploma score of 25 points, equats to over 3 B grades at A Level." |

| I get your point. Normally, local universities take their local curricullum a bit higher than foreign curricullum. I always quoted medicine in HKU & CUHK even higher than Cambridge Medicine. We make the informed choice, played by the rules. |

| My son enjoyed the new IB campus, 8 classrooms and 4 labs, pretty spaceous..... 3 classmates joined LPC and they are good in two languages, also not bad in other subjects. 1 joined India UWC........ amazing. 2 new recruits from IS in HK for IBDP year 1. The IB coordinator told them the last Yr 1 IBDP students' predicted scores are very good (As predicted scores only, I prefer keep quiet for another 10 months and see the coorelation.). More than 10 aim at HKU medicine, 8-9 LSE, many for financein HK, 2-3 Harvard.......some got offers from Ivy League. Looking forward to see the final admission results. They are busy to form the student council committee, clubs as office bearers etc, prefects, school MO teams........ They have some teacher turnover, the teachers profile more and more international...... 25642 [ 本帖最後由 ANChan59 於 11-9-1 21:53 編輯 ] |

| I’m curious about why the 3 of your son classmate joined LPC. Since I also heard that the prediction grade of some of the DP2 student is very high. So I presume the school is teaching well and I don’t see the need to move. |

| My son told me that the text book cost of IBDP cheaper than NSS. Just LS has 6 textbook ..... Last year we shopped from B&N, it took longer time and need to wait for printing. This year we used Amazon UK and we got all books including shipping within 5 days. For international delivery, the two shipment costs made no difference (I tried with the calculator), I picked the express delivery. |

| i would guess: lpc is a boarding school, lpc has a big campus, lpc has lots of international students, lpc had experienced career master. |
