What is the British university preparatory course? The difference between language class and language class
To put it simply: preparatory course is an additional course because of insufficient academic background.

Language course is a course that needs to be added because the language is not up to standard (for example, IELTS score is not enough for the main course).

More specifically, if Chinese high school students want to go to the UK for undergraduate studies, they usually need to add a preparatory course before the undergraduate course (this is determined by the education systems of two countries, and China has 12 years of education before the undergraduate course. In Britain, it is 13. In order to make up the difference this year, there will be an undergraduate preparatory course.

As for the master's preparatory course: generally speaking, the applicant's background is not up to standard if he directly applies for a university. You can apply for a master's degree in our school as a transition. This kind of applicants, often with a university background, directly apply for a master's degree and fail to meet the standards. They apply for a master's degree first, and then study for a master's degree at school after the preparatory course. Such applicants also include some students with low average undergraduate scores who want to apply for a master's degree.
