Panthé on-Sorbonne became the hottest university this year with 77,487 applicants, which shows its good reputation among high school students. As 73 167 high school students submitted their applications for admission, the University of Aix-Marseille ranked second. Among the top ten universities in Paris, Paris VII (third), Paris Nanterre (fourth), creteil in the east of Paris (fifth) and Paris XII (eighth) are outstanding.
Other institutions of higher learning in the top ten are located in metropolises, except the University of Aix-Marseille mentioned above, as well as the University of Lille (sixth place), the University of Nantes (ninth place) and the University of Strasbourg (tenth place).
Several universities in Paris are also home to popular subjects (such as law, sports science, medicine and psychology), so they have become the most competitive battlefields for the college entrance examination. For example, in the University of Paris V, 66 167 candidates compete for 4,297 positions, and the admission rate is only 6.5%; Followed by Paris No.7 Middle School, the admission rate is 6.8%, and Paris No.1 Middle School is 7.3%.
But in general, as long as they are the 20 most popular universities, even the best ones, candidates have to accept the reality of choosing one out of three or even one out of five. For example, University of Toulouse II (admission rate is 32.2%), University of Clermont-Overwien (admission rate is 28.6%), University of Normandy in Caen (24.6%), or University of Lille (24.5%).
