Admission Standards for JUPAS Loosened
.
Summary:
This may be music to the ears of this year’s JUPAS applicants: multiple local universities have readjusted their admission requirements that failing to attain the standard “3322” scores would not immediately bar the entrance to these institutions. However, such a disadvantage will have to be compensated for by exceptional performances in other subjects – the overall threshold may not be necessarily lower.
.
Language Enhancement:
Compensate (v.)(彌補/補償)
compensate 是「補償」之前為別人造成的損失,也可指「抵銷/彌補」一個不足之處或者負面的影響。用法是 compensate (sb.) + for + N.。
e.g. My company is going to compensate me for the overtime hours I spent working last week.
e.g. We are going to have to compensate for our team’s lack of speed with solid defence.
