What are the three important terms: "floor score", "what is admission threshold?" and "standard score" and how is it different from the above two terms?

These are commonly used phrases but many students do not understand them, which can easily lead to incorrect decisions when applying for admission or deciding to change their wishes when choosing a major.

Below is a detailed explanation from the Admissions Council to help you understand the nature and things to know!

1. Floor score: Also known as the input quality threshold, this is the minimum threshold that universities and colleges use as a basis for admission, from which schools are not allowed to admit candidates with exam results lower than the input quality threshold. For example: If the candidate's score + Priority bonus points are less than the floor score, the candidate will not be considered for admission. Another note is that the floor score does not apply to students who are admitted based on their academic records.

2. Admission threshold: This is the score that Universities and Colleges will announce within a specific period of time. This is the score that candidates will use to know whether they are qualified to apply to the school or not. From there, they will decide whether to change their application or not.

The admission threshold is always ≥ Floor score. For example, the admission threshold of a school is 18, meaning that candidates with a score below 18 will not be considered for admission to the school.

Candidates need to be careful with the admission thresholds set by schools because many schools set quite low admission thresholds while the actual admission scores are much higher. Especially the top schools.

3. Standard score: This is the score given after the candidate has finalized his/her wishes (ie after the deadline for adjusting wishes has expired). The standard score according to regulations will be announced at a certain time. The standard score is the score from which the candidate knows whether he/she passes or fails.

Above are some distinctions between the phrases "Floor score", "Admission threshold", "Standard score" that have been compiled and informed by the admin team to readers/parents/candidates.
