(but weihan Y still talking abt A level results now ?
)
I am doing some research, reading up and thinking on why certain schools perform better than expected.Augmum:
Exactly, that was what I meant. Since counting 7 distinctions that require distintions in all three GP, PW and HCL is more stringent, I thought the number could be even higher if they count it in the usual way.
notice, 2 diff ways of reporting for diff cat.
as it stated
\"23 students obtained 7 distinctions (including distinctions in General Paper, Higher Chinese Language and Project Work)\"
\"44 students obtained 6 distinctions (which may include distinctions in General Paper, Higher Chinese Language and Project Work)\"
so prob the 1st statement referring to the number of students with distinctions in GP, HCL and PW,
while the 2 nd statement, the number of 44 inclusive of such students. -

RV won in SJAB zonal FA competition - clean sweep!!!:congrats: :celebrate:
I am interested in RV. I almost sent The Daughter there but she decided to go to an IP school. In those days, RV had no IP. I am still interested in RV for my son.... What is this SJAB zonal FA competition please? -
WeiHan:
Are you saying that students who scored 7 distinctions but not in GP/PW/HCL won't be included in the count for 7 distinctions? I don't think so. I think that all of the 23 students who scored 7 distinctions ALSO happened to score distinctions in GP/PW/HCL. RV just wanted to point out that all of their 23 students who scored 7 distinctions also scored distinctions in GP/PW/HCL.Augmum:

RV just wanted to point out that all of their 23 students who scored 7 distinctions also scored distinctions in GP/PW/HCL.[/quote]That is a possibility. I can't be sure that I am correct. It is very rare for a school to produce all their 7 distinctions and all with distinctions in GP/PW/HCL. If you check with people, it is very common that students get 7 distinctions but with either no distinction in GP or HCL. The extra distinction that they make up with come from another H1 or H3 subjects.WeiHan:
