Achievement-based Points Test

The Scheme also caters for the entry of individuals with exceptional talent or skill who have outstanding achievements.  They may choose to be assessed under a separate Achievement-based Points Test.  Requirement under this test is very high.  Assessment under this test focuses on achievements attained by applicants and applicants who opt to be assessed under this test are claiming a scoring of 165 points under one scoring factor only.  Those who are considered to have met one of the criteria under this test listed in the following paragraph will be awarded 165 points; otherwise, no point will be awarded.  Applications which fail to score points under this test will be refused immediately. 

Points may be awarded under this test if:

1. the applicant has received an award of exceptional achievement (e.g. Olympic medals, Nobel prize, national/international awards); or
   
   
2. the applicant can show that his/her work has been acknowledged by his/her peers or has contributed significantly to the development of his/her field (e.g. lifetime achievement award from industry).
