1. What are the top universities abroad?
If it's so simple, the first thing that comes to mind is a famous old university? There are Harvard University, Stanford University, Yale University, California Institute of Technology, Berkeley, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Columbia University and so on. In Britain, there are Oxford University, Cambridge University and Imperial College London. There are countless other famous schools. Every year, various international institutions rank global universities according to different weight evaluation criteria. Let's just say that foreign universities that are in front of or near Tsinghua Peking University all the year round are top foreign universities.
Second, undergraduate or graduate?
Regardless of the temporary realization of doctoral degree, undergraduate students going to the north and graduate students going to the north are two concepts, and the corresponding undergraduate students going to top foreign universities and graduate students going to top foreign universities are also two concepts.
Let's talk about Tsinghua's undergraduate course and take the national unified entrance examination for ordinary universities. Candidates often need to enter the province before 100, and some of them rank below 50 points, which shows that the competition is fierce and cruel. In recent years, there are nearly 10 million people taking the college entrance examination, and only 6,000 students are enrolled in one session of two schools in Tsinghua Peking University. Coupled with the differences in enrollment policies and educational resources between provinces and cities and between urban and rural areas, it can basically be said that the vast majority of candidates in China want to go to Tsinghua Peking University.
What if many outstanding students fail to get into Tsinghua Peking University? It is also a good choice to go to a top foreign university. If you are good enough and your family conditions are solid enough. That doesn't mean that you can go to foreign universities if you have money, take different language tests according to the needs of different places, including but not limited to IELTS, TOEFL and PTE, and you can also take the SAT, which is similar to the college entrance examination in China. It's not easy, and the required grades are rising according to the level of the university you choose. After all, they are all optional exams, and the one with the highest score will definitely get it.
It is more likely for graduate students to go to top universities in Qingbei or abroad, but it is not easy. In China, it is not easy to take the national postgraduate selection examination, which is similar to that in foreign countries. It is an application system. As for the comparison of difficulty, we have to consider the differences of the selected majors.
Thirdly, the concept of top foreign universities is defined, the differences between undergraduate and graduate students are discussed, and the differences between majors are considered. Then we are considering several problems that cannot be ignored.
The first question is tuition. It really doesn't cost much to go to college in China, even in Qingbei. In foreign countries, it ranges from 6.5438+10,000 to 300,000 per year depending on the selected area. This shows that foreign universities have regarded international students as a profitable business, but families who are willing to fight hard do not think it is a loss-making business. If the college entrance examination is relatively fair to everyone, it is unfair to study abroad or even to study in top foreign universities. Therefore, studying abroad is not open to everyone, but an extra choice for some families.
One is the problem of educational resources. There are only two domestic universities in northern Qing Dynasty, only nine in c9, and there are so many double-class universities. Then every college entrance examination student is destined to be selected at all levels, and there is basically no hope in Qingbei. So why don't people who have the ability to choose top foreign universities go? After all, the trend of globalization has been going on for decades, and foreign resources are also educational resources that I can use, so why not do it when I have the ability?
Finally, we need to realize that not going to Beijing does not mean completely denying a person. This achievement can only represent your strength and luck at that time. If you can be admitted to a top foreign university, you must be an excellent student. If you spend money to get into a good university, most of them will go to junk universities abroad, far from being first-class.
Finally, we don't need to be jealous of good universities abroad, and we don't need to sell ourselves short because we can't get into Beijing. We hope that educational resources will be equal, and that there will be more and more good universities like Qingbei in China. Our children will receive a good education in the future and eventually become the pillars of the motherland.
