The score listed above is for reference only. It does not indicate any direct admission to the programme as they vary from year to year thus should not be used to predict the chance of admission for future years. Besides, performance on assessments will also be taken into consideration.

The admission score is calculated based upon the summation of the weighted score of five subjects obtained from the Best Five policy, under which the best five subjects are selected based upon their corresponding weighted scores.

The following table demonstrates how DSE scores are converted to the score for admission score

calculation.

Level 5** 5* 5 4 3 2 1 Unclassified

Score 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0

The following table shows that minimum level of various DSE subjects and the corresponding weights that are assigned to the subjects for the calculation of their weighted scores. M1/M2 is considered as an elective subject in the 2016-17 admission score calculation. The following table also reveals that the subject weights are categorized into three levels of subject weight 10, 7 and 5. DSE Subject Minimum Level Subject weight Requirement

Below demonstrates an example of admission calculation under HSMC scoring scheme for an applicant who obtained the following HKDSE results. The weighted score of individual subjects is calculated by the

formula of converted DSE level (Y1) times the corresponding subject weight (Y2), i.e., Y1 x Y2. As the table shows, the Best Five subjects in terms of the five highest weighted scores are English, Mathematics, Liberal Studies, BAFS, and Geography. Their weighted scores are then summated to form the Admission Score that is used for admission consideration.
