EXAMINATIONS.
(1) A table showing the results of the Matriculation and Local Examinations conducted in 1930 by the University of Hong Kong is given below.
Of those who sat for the examinations, excluding the candidates entered under "private study", 46% gained matri- culation or Senior Local certificates: for the Junior Local the percentage was 38.
In both cases the girls' schools were able to show higher figures, these being 71 and 69.
The idea that only selected candidates should be entered for the examination is not to be encouraged. The selection of a few candidates who are supposed to have a chance of passing is contrary to the object of the examinations which are only of value if every boy or girl from the appropriate class is entered for them.
