What about those students who have gone abroad to study now?

Hello. I am a junior in an ordinary undergraduate college. The family is not bad, just average. Now a junior, I am not interested in watching my classmates actively prepare for postgraduate entrance examination, textual research or civil service examination. I think my future is different from theirs.

I'm not afraid of jokes. Although my family conditions are average, I have had a dream of studying abroad since high school. Considering the family economic reasons, I gave up the idea of going abroad for undergraduate study in the college entrance examination. However, with the coming of postgraduate entrance examination, my idea of studying abroad is ready to move again. The competition for postgraduate entrance examination in China is so fierce that I am afraid that I will fail the exam and ruin my future. Still want to go abroad for gold plating and add some chips for academic qualifications. Moreover, foreign graduate students are relatively easy to enroll and have short study time. However, the economic conditions at home still can't support my dream of going abroad. I think I'm not the only one who has this idea: I want to go out and see if I have any money. So I just want to ask you, am I paranoid? Should I stick to my own ideas?

Dear Lily Chow:

Hello. I understand what you're thinking. Not only you but also my mother had a dream of studying abroad when she was young. So you see, it's normal to have this idea, at least it shows that you are a person who is willing to enrich your growth experience.

Children in ordinary families are unwilling to add extra burden to their parents, and most of them give up the idea of studying abroad as soon as possible. Of course, there are also some honest people who use the excuse of enjoying youth to send their parents a series of foreign consumption bills. I don't think sensible young people want to be the latter.

During my college years, it seemed quite common to go abroad for postgraduate study. Schoolmasters with good grades can compete for public places to study abroad, while scum with good families have no pressure to apply for studying abroad at their own expense. The people left in the middle are the most embarrassed: their grades are average, their families are average, and they have inexplicable obsession with going abroad. This is probably the average student who has been habitually ignored by teachers since childhood.

Then, how should students with average family economic conditions realize their dream of studying abroad?

Children talk nonsense. If you are an intermediate student who is eager to study abroad, you may wish to take a look at the following suggestions:

1. Desperately brush your grades and get a scholarship. This should be the lowest cost way. To this extent, you can also strive for the opportunity to study abroad and exchange students in public schools. Of course, if it is a prestigious school such as 2 1 1 and 985, there are more opportunities. In college, it is really important to study hard, at least there will be more choices. Don't despise the schoolmaster who works hard silently all day, come to a bowl of poisoned milk: excellent people have worked so hard, what qualifications do you have not to struggle?

2. Work hard to earn money. If you don't have money, make it. If you can't save enough money to study abroad during college, then work first, survive first, and then talk about studying abroad. After working for a few years, with experience and money, it will be relatively easy to apply for a school, and at the same time it will reduce the burden on the family. Why not? When your dreams are blocked, don't cling to what you can't achieve. Turn a corner and you will see the next intersection.

3. Think about the minority countries in Europe. If you are not particularly obsessed with famous schools such as Britain, America and Australia. Finland, Denmark and Sweden are also good choices. Tuition and living expenses are low, and there are various scholarships. If you are good enough, you can get a full bonus without spending a penny.

Here is a question: Why on earth do you want to study abroad? Admittedly, studying abroad has various advantages. Broaden your horizons, exercise your ability to survive independently, and of course make your outstanding academic qualifications look better. None of this is wrong, but Lily Week has a prominent problem: trying to escape the pressure of postgraduate entrance examination in China by studying abroad.

However, do you think it will be easy to study and live abroad? No. Many things cannot be accomplished by imagination alone. To this end, today we specially invited several senior study abroad parties to talk about their feelings about going abroad.

I dare not go out alone in the first month, and my language is not very fluent. The shock and loneliness brought by strange environment is too bad.

Missing is a kind of cake.

The key to oral English in life is specialized courses. I didn't learn well, and I couldn't understand the technical terms. I regret not studying hard to go to an English-speaking country. Although working English is not very good, I think Russian is more difficult. .

There are endless papers and exams for the finance major in a British university. Doing homework all night is a common practice, and the library is afraid of being robbed when it comes back from brushing books.

Texas, not Shandong. Liberal arts major, the employment future is rather confused. Well, my mother asked me to go home after graduation and take an examination of a teacher or a civil servant, that's all.

You see, even those who study abroad are not easy to learn and will be confused in the future. If you can't stand the pressure of postgraduate entrance examination in China, are you sure that studying abroad can withstand the double pressure of study and life? Solve immediate difficulties and make long-term plans. Don't try to skip the current stress, because what you escape will always be rewarded.

The idea of studying abroad is worth encouraging. The world is so big, you must visit it often. When you can't achieve it, don't worry, wait for the right time. There will be bread and offerings.

Finally, I would like to send a word to my younger brothers and sisters who have dreams of studying abroad:

You'll know when you get out.

How big is the outside world?

I also want to see Marisol in the world.
