      tutormum:
      Best results you can get base on 1 language and 5 other subjects

      Thanks tutormum & mathsparks for enlightening me.

      May I ask the 6 subjects that the points that calculated for JC must be based on 1 language & 5 other subjects ?

      That means if you get A1 in English & A1 in Chinese, you can only use one of them ?

      Thanks

        L1 refers to either English or Higher Chinese. Express Chinese can be used as one of the R5 subjects if I'm not wrong.


        I thought 2 bonus points is for HCL as long as you obtain C grade and above ? :?

              Thanks
              May I summarise the above info given so far with regard to JC entrance:

              A) L1R5
              L1 = English or HCL
              R5 = Best related 5 subjects, including CL

              B) Bonus points
              2 points from LEAPS (prefect, CCA, CIP etc. must be 21 pts n above over 4 yrs)
              2 points from obtaining C6-A1 in both HCL and English

                Thanks, is there a max points (or cap) that can be deducted ?

                      [quote]foreign lang can only count as 1 of the R5 subjects not as a bonus point. Max bonus point is 4, as wat cjs said. You get to minus 2 points only if you score a1-c6 in both HCL and EL.[/quote]As mentioned by Mathsparks, max bonus is 4 pts.

                        I'm not sure. can someone comment? Mathsparks, CJS??[/quote]HCL is consider as L1, which means if you take higher chinese, and do better than english, yr HCL score is used for L1.

                        To summarise, if both Eng and HCL score between A1 and C6, you can minus 2 bonus points. But the lower of either Eng or HCL is used in the computation of the L1 part of the L1R5.

                        And HCL is not part of the R5 subjects at all.
