Universities
This is a common situation that you have to face. Every year, you
have to select from a large group of 16-year olds, a few who
automatically qualify to join institutions of higher education even
before the final examinations.
This poses a big dilemma when these students have almost identical
academic results and extra-curricular activities.
Are there other ways of trying to separate these teenage students and
choose the most suitable to enter into the respective educational
faculties?

Referees
You can also contact the referees of these candidates and find out
why they want to recommend these students to direct-entry into
higher education. It is up to your own experience to discover if these
referees merely associate themselves with these candidates just to
give blind support but may not know have enough reasons for their
support

Lego
The truth of the matter is this. Lego blocks are very good for any
candidate to highlight what is in his mind. The Lego pieces are of
different colours and sizes and are only constrained by the deep
recesses of the candidate's imagination.
You can also follow-up by allowing each final candidate to join a team
of senior students who are already in the higher educational
institutions. Break them into different groups and give them group
projects to do. Remember to delegate the group presentation to be
done by each candidate and then allow the other group members to
evaluate them. This is very crucial because their peers are very good
judges of competency and maturity.
