叩門位減半=成功率減半？教你寫出一擊即中自薦信（附親筆撰寫自薦信範例）

升中派位結果將於今日（11日）揭曉，不滿結果的家長可到心儀中學「叩門」，不過今年起各校只能使用每班一個「留班位」收叩門學生，由於大部分名校中只有4班，即叩門位將較往年的8個減半至4個。也會有不少家長會到許多學校叩門，亦有家長即使子女派了第二志願，也希望到第一志願的學校叩門。不少家長可能會擔心叩門位減少，競爭力會比往年更大，叩門成功率也因此下降，不過資優教育中心創辦人Ms Claudia Chu則認為若做好以下幾件事，仍有機會錄取。

叩門數量減少不代表機會減少

儘管叩門位數量減少，但相信在學生流失（移民）的情況下，仍會有一定數量的候補位，即被派到的學生放棄入讀而騰出的席位，供其他學生競爭，預計競爭程度與往年相近。同時，即使學生未曾報讀該中學，若透過面試表現及誠意搭救等，仍有機會獲取錄。提醒傳統英中學校非常重視學術成績，通常會設有筆試來甄選學生。為了避免浪費是次機會，需要進行筆試的同學需要在中英數各分卷努力加強！

叩門前準備功夫要做好

如果等到派位，發現所派學校並不合意，當天才開始做叩門的功夫，心情會非常緊張，往往會感到很徬徨，也容易處處碰壁。所以仍想在統一派位放榜後叩門的家長和同學，務必要在放榜日前，預備好叩門三寶。叩門三寶，首先是學生個人身份證明，如身分證、學生手冊或學生證等；其次是學生過去三年的成績單及課外活動等相關紀錄，還有備妥文具和學生個人照片，以準備需要即時填寫所需。提醒家長需要準備多份第一和第二項文件。此外，家長要留意心儀學校的表格派發時間和申請事項。事先規劃好區內要叩門的學校數量和路線圖。

親筆撰寫自薦信更顯誠意

校長常會對缺乏誠意的學生有所憂慮，所以請勿向校長遞交千篇一律的「罐頭信」，而是親筆撰寫自薦信，以表達真誠之意。昨天和學生寫了一封叩門信，可以供大家參考：
