If I have been approved to live in Hong Kong now, will I drop out of school or will I drop out of school in a few months before I can study in Hong Kong? Read only until sophomore year ...

Please be sure to start from the first year of high school. At present, the new 334 academic system is implemented in Hong Kong, and there have been some changes in curriculum and examination requirements. In the senior high school entrance examination, namely the Hong Kong Certificate of Education Examination (DSE), candidates need to take elective subjects such as Chinese, English, mathematics and common sense. Among them, Chinese, English, mathematics and communication must reach a certain level in order to have basic admission qualifications. Because there is no general education in the mainland, and under the 334 academic system in Hong Kong, the general education in new senior high schools starts from the first year of high school, so even if your English, Chinese and mathematics have surpassed the class, you still have to learn general education from the beginning. In terms of examination, Chinese can be spoken and heard in Putonghua, and the scoring standard is the same as Cantonese. Any test paper that answers questions in Chinese accepts simplified words, even a mixture of simplified words and simplified words.

In fact, if you come, there is no doubt that you will start from the first year of high school, because high school begins. Your performance in school is included in the school-based assessment, and your performance score in the school-based assessment should be submitted, not too large (15%-20%? ), but it still directly affects your graduation certificate exam results. In addition, all subjects will be marked at school according to the needs of the marking bureau, including if you study science, then physics and chemistry experiments will be done at school, and your subject teacher will submit the scores and calculate the scores. In addition, entering the university now requires students to have enough OLE (other learning experience) in addition to their academic performance, which has been arranged for you almost since the first year of high school. OLE will serve as a reference for universities to choose you, which is very important.

So, please relax and start reading from grade one. I don't think you need to worry too much about English. As long as you do a good job at ordinary times and make the score of school-based assessment as high as possible, you will feel much more at ease when you go out for the exam.

Good luck.
