1. If students pass the college entrance examination and go to college, if they fail this exam, they may need to go to a university or major they don't want to go to, and it is difficult to transfer to another school or major. French universities are much more flexible, and they have the opportunity to change schools and major every year. Students can adjust their schools or majors according to their own conditions, and these are not final decisions.
However, this flexible advantage does not mean that you can change it at will. You can reapply for other schools and majors every year on the basis of previous studies. Taking changing majors as a band-aid for your lack of learning ability will only be a waste of time in different schools and occupations. Therefore, studying in France should be as cautious as choosing a professional college. If you think it is necessary to change your major, you must make a decision after you have completely determined your hobbies and future career plans.
2. The difference between France and the national college entrance examination is that its application is based on single subject scores, so many other factors, especially the characteristics of students, will be considered. In other words, even students with poor hardware conditions can have the opportunity to apply to world famous schools or top universities in a certain field here.
This is both an advantage and a challenge. On the one hand, even if it is explained that there is no need for college entrance examination results, there are still many famous schools in France that take students' college entrance examination results as a reference. On the other hand, being able to enter a first-class university in France does not necessarily mean that you will definitely graduate. It's really lucky to be able to apply, but it doesn't mean that you can be admitted to a famous university once and for all.
After studying in France, generally speaking, you can apply for graduate students from many schools, and the domestic competition is not fierce. Even if you apply to engineering colleges, high-tech business colleges and art colleges, you have more confidence to apply directly than domestic college students because you have the foundation of studying in France and know the characteristics of French teaching exams. Of course, the success of applying for graduate students is still inseparable from the efforts of the undergraduate stage.
Due to the combination of leniency and strictness in French universities, some parents and classmates regard studying in France as a retreat to escape the failure of the college entrance examination, or blindly believe that having the opportunity to study in a first-class university in developed countries can change their destiny. They don't seriously think about why they want to study in France, but think about what suits them, ignoring some difficulties and challenges they must face in the process of studying abroad. Because high school students are still young, although they can exercise their self-care ability in such a strange environment, they may be unable to restrain themselves and even become lazy because they have no parents to take care of them.
