Extended reading: a detailed explanation of the preparatory course for studying in Britain

The British Foundation is roughly divided into three parts:

The first is the language improvement course, which lays a solid foundation for entering a more demanding undergraduate course;

The second is to study the course of research methods to prepare for the thesis writing and professional research at the undergraduate level;

The third is specialized basic courses, which pave the way for undergraduates to choose majors.

The preparatory course takes you into England.

Many students are worried that they will not get good grades in the college entrance examination and will not be admitted to a good university in China. How to enter the world when you go to England?

In fact, many universities in Britain pay more attention to students' comprehensive quality and potential besides the results of college entrance examination, and develop their bright spots. As a matter of fact, students in China can apply to schools of the British Foundation after finishing their sophomore year and getting HKCEE scores. In this way, you can use the time of senior three to go to the UK for preparatory courses, and you can also enter the university earlier than your peers in China and get a degree.

What's the difference between the education systems in Britain and China?

British students received 13 years of education before entering university, while China students received 12 years, one year less than British students. And British students have received professional education (such as economics, finance, psychology, etc. In senior high school, China students only study basic courses (Chinese, English, mathematics, etc.). In order for international students to have the same academic ability and knowledge as British students before entering universities, international students must receive preparatory education.

Many students want to enter the top universities in Britain, such as Oxford, Cambridge and Imperial College London. However, the chances of getting such an application through the undergraduate preparatory course are relatively small.

So in this case, if students have such a goal, they can choose to enter general certificate of education advanced level-Alevel (2 years) after the end of senior one. Alevel courses in Britain are very rich in gold, which is recognized all over the world. By registering in the UK, China students finally enter Oxford and Cambridge.

What's the purpose of going to the UK for preparatory courses?

What does the British Foundation read? If I get 7 points in IELTS, can I enter the freshman course directly without taking the preparatory course? In fact, the international study abroad program is the only way for international students to enter British universities. Due to the differences in educational systems and teaching methods in different countries, it is necessary to enroll in international study program in order to ensure that international students can better adapt to British university courses when they enter universities.
