2015 JUPAS (HKDSE) Admission Scores

For applicants who have fulfilled the minimum entrance requirements, admission scores are calculated for use in admission selection.
The information contained here is based on the admission scores (with weighting applied where appropriate) of offered applicants in the JUPAS main round
admission exercise. Sample cases of students having the same median and lower quartile scores are presented for reference. Students admitted through special
admission routes (other experiences and achievements, principal's nominations, sports talents, disabled applicants and Home Affairs Bureau Multi-Faceted
Excellence Scholarship) are not included in the calculation of scores.
Students are reminded that because of the different weightings adopted, the admission scores are not comparable across programmes and different admission
years. The sample cases are for reference only and should not be used to predict the chance of admission. The selection criteria vary each year, and many types of
scores are used in the selection process. In addition to public examination results, other factors (such as band choices, interview performance, etc.) may also be
considered.
