Hong Kong Advanced Level Examination - Past Results

Past Results

Sometimes, for some AS-level subjects, only less than 0.05% of the candidates can achieve grade A. However, there is always more than 0.05% of candidates achieving grade A in the full A-level counterpart of the subjects concerned. The AS-level syllabus of a certain subject is a selected part of the AL syllabus, but the questions in an AS-Level examination are as deep as the full AL counterpart. AS-level papers share some of the questions with the AL counterpart and in those questions, the marking schemes for both A-level and the AS-level are identical.

Famous quotes containing the word results:

    There is not a single rule, however plausible, and however firmly grounded in epistemology, that is not violated at some time or other. It becomes evident that such violations are not accidental events, they are not results of insufficient knowledge or of inattention which might have been avoided. On the contrary, we see that they are necessary for progress.
    Paul Feyerabend (1924–1994)

    I have no doubt that it was a principle they fought for, as much as our ancestors, and not to avoid a three-penny tax on their tea; and the results of this battle will be as important and memorable to those whom it concerns as those of the battle of Bunker Hill, at least.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
