[Consultation] Apply for the University of Hong Kong
1, as you said, it should be said that the hope of entering HKU is greater, but it is also more difficult to get a scholarship. Take last year's HKU situation in our place as an example. To get a scholarship, you should get at least 10 points higher than the Qingbei Line, but since you have no financial pressure, there is great hope of enrolling students at your own expense without considering the scholarship.
2. Universities in Hong Kong generally belong to the first echelon, followed by PolyU and CityU. In fact, the admission scores (or interview scores) of the top three schools are similar every year, and the situation in each province is slightly different. With your grades, under normal circumstances, even if HKU fails, PolyU and CityU will make up their minds that there is no problem. Since you can go to Zhejiang University in the Mainland, it is recommended not to consider other universities in Hong Kong.
In fact, despite the heated speculation in Hong Kong schools in the past two years, there is still no way to gain people's full trust, so there are still a few people who really come to study in Hong Kong, and the competition is not as fierce as you think.
On the question of English interview, I attended interviews with HKU and HKUST last year, and both passed, so I think my answer is of certain reference value.
In fact, English interview is really uncomfortable for people who have never experienced it, but there is no need to think too complicated. The atmosphere of the whole interview was very relaxed, just like chatting. Although you need to answer in English, you don't need sophisticated language or standard expression and pronunciation. They just want to see what you think through your answers. For example, in the interview of our University of Science and Technology last year, the elimination rate was not very high. However, it should be noted that many universities here are all English teaching environments, and not only teaching, but also some daily activities are carried out in English environment (for example, before I came to school last year, I had to choose courses, register, etc., all of which were English materials), so the requirements for comprehensive English application ability are not low (in fact, oral English is a piece that I feel less pressure after coming here). If you only talk about the interview, I suggest you have a good surprise training after the college entrance examination to about three weeks before the interview (I practiced with foreign teachers for two weeks in a row last year, and the effect is obvious)
In addition, regarding the choice of the University of Hong Kong, to be honest, I don't have a very good impression of HKU, so I don't suggest that you only focus on HKU (in fact, HKU's dominant majors are dentistry, legal actuarial science and architecture, but it doesn't have much advantage compared with other universities in Hong Kong). The specific choice should also be decided according to whether the major and school style are suitable for you. For example, our University of Science and Technology (HKUST) is not as famous as HKUST, but our school was founded only 16 years ago, and the scale of running a school is very small, with only four colleges (one of which does not accept undergraduates) and 17 undergraduate majors, but no Hong Kong school can definitely say that it is better than our school, which is why I choose HKUST instead of HKUST, CUHK and Peking University (with advertisements). . . ), as for PolyU and CityU, some majors are beyond HKU's reach (such as hotel management of PolyU). I suggest you collect more information and make comprehensive judgments when making specific choices.
Finally, I recommend a website for you
www.studyinhk.net
This is a local website in Hong Kong. The information about schools in Hong Kong is relatively comprehensive and of great reference value.
In the answer on the first floor, only HKU needs to study in the Mainland for one year and then go to Hong Kong for three years. Other Hong Kong schools go directly to Hong Kong (in fact, individuals tend to come directly to Hong Kong, and I believe many mainland students also think so ~)
Come on!
