Do I need to prove my English Proficiency?
I am planning to apply into a university in Hong Kong. (Studying Abroad)
Although Cantonese is commonly spoken, English is quite valued / respected there.
They require a proof of proficiency in English. I do have one, which is my English O-Level results. However, it doesn't accurately reflect my proficiency as I scored a C5 / C6 for it. (It's peculiar as my friends whom scored better than me has a lower vocabulary of English)
It only shows that my English is functional, but not proficient.
So I'm thinking of going to an Open Exam Centre to take a Cambridge English: Proficiency (CPE) Test to accurately reflect my proficiency in English.
Do you think it'll help improve my chances into getting in? (I assume that recent test results hold more weight)
Side note: I'm planning to take up Psychology. If I'm ambitious enough, maybe a double degree in Social Sciences and Art.
