The so-called study abroad circle is too general. There are too many small circles under a big circle. Everyone is an independent individual, and everyone has his own circle. It's just a coincidence that everyone comes to Britain to study. Different regions are the same, so the concept of study abroad circle has no practical significance.

So I can only roughly classify the people who study in the UK around me, and don't sit in the right place! ~

1. Social flower.

As for these people, their family background is generally good, they don't go abroad for further study, or they just want to go abroad to study for a diploma. By the way, let them play for a few more years, mix a circle of international students and expand their contacts in case they need it when they return to China to inherit property in the future.

Here is a small example of my former classmate.

Girl A, whose coordinates are London, her uncle runs a five-star hotel and also develops some real estate. Her father is a shareholder, and his family conditions are ok, but he is not particularly rich. However, she has a high face value and is very sociable. In her social circle, she is the center of the crowd, and a large group of people surround her. Later, I made a boyfriend who was also an international student in London and bought her a pink Ferrari. The sisters later smashed the front of the car. Later, when she returned to China, she was also looking for friends in the study abroad circle to play around. Her present state can be partly referred to Qu Xiaoyu in Ode to Joy.

2. "Royal" reserves with mines at home.

They may not be outstanding in the crowd, nor are they masters of learning. Usually at school, the result is paddling. I am not particularly keen on communication, but my life quality is first-class, and I never treat myself badly. Although I live a good life, I don't like to show off in my circle of friends. Going abroad is to experience life abroad and give yourself a gold medal by the way. Yes, they really have a throne to inherit at home.

Take my male friend H as an example. He looks ordinary and usually keeps a low profile. He doesn't like to socialize everywhere. His ordinary life is also very simple. He goes to class from nine to five every day, goes home to do his homework at night, and strolls around the city with his friends on weekends. But in fact, his fortune is over 100 million and he has his own flat bed in London. When buying shoes, yeezy buys all colors because they are easy to wear. When buy buy bought it, he almost never looked at the price. He is also a very friendly person. He never looks down on others, but he is very charitable. Perhaps this is the so-called rich family education. Usually I just chat with my friends and play cards. I've never been very erosive. When you have a holiday, go around the world and have some fun. Don't be too comfortable and keep the royal family properly.

3. The spirit of westerners with yellow skin and white heart.

Although I am from China, I am actually more used to expressing myself in English. They have been influenced by western culture and education since childhood, and their values and thinking patterns are more westernized. Although they have a Chinese face, their central idea has been completely westernized.

I once had a girlfriend, E, who went to study in England when she was in primary school. Later, she walked all the way through junior high school and high school, and was successfully admitted to Imperial College to study chemistry. Perhaps it is because she studied abroad since she was a child, and her friends and classmates came from all over the world. The culture and education she received also came from the western education model. So her usual behavior and way of thinking, in my opinion, is closer to an Englishman than an China. Also known as "white washing"

For example, compared with China's modesty and politeness, she speaks more directly and critically. If she thinks there is something wrong with what the teacher said in class, she will directly raise her hand to refute it. Compared with the phenomenon that other international students get together to keep warm, she is more accustomed to establishing her own independent circle, which respects the culture of China and is very familiar with the culture of Britain, so she is very popular among international students and British natives. In addition, her parents bought a studio through Lanza to live in London in full, but she took the initiative to write an iou to her parents (although her parents wouldn't let her), and also detailed the "debt repayment plan" after graduation, saying that she was an adult and had to borrow money from her parents for the house. Also very opinionated! I don't comment on western culture and eastern culture here, but in her, the two cultures present a wonderful fusion.

4. Academic tyrants with all-round development in morality, intelligence and physique.

I admire these people, not because of their family environment or other external factors, but because of their unique personality charm. They are always trying what they like to make their lives full of meaning. The more open and free environment and social atmosphere abroad make them dare to try to be different.

I have to mention Z, a male classmate whom I admire very much. Judging from his appearance alone, Z is a very ordinary boy. He shaved a simple inch and didn't pay attention to his clothes. Compared with those well-dressed students who go to bars, nightclubs and luxury shopping malls, he is quite inconspicuous. But as long as you get to know him better, you will find that he is a person with strong personality charm.

He showed me what international students in China are like, not glamorous facades. For a while, I found that he often went to the nursery founded by Thomas Cramer in London as a volunteer. At Christmas, he decorated the Christmas tree with the children and opened presents with them. Later, in cooperation with the welfare home, we initiated fund-raising in the school. One hundred sets of winter clothes were collected for these children. On his social media, children's smiling faces are everywhere. Patience, responsibility and affection are what we should have. During school holidays, he will go hiking around, go to neighboring countries, be a backpacker, and challenge to change from an Asian to an African in a week.

A hot person shines everywhere, and his efforts in learning are beyond the reach of ordinary people. He gets up at six o'clock every day, and then is an efficient study day. I often ask him, aren't you tired of studying so hard? Why don't you have a rest and sleep in? He said: Why do you want to sleep before you die? You will fall asleep after death. His tutor appreciates him very much and often takes him to do projects and research topics together. In a word, he is really an outstanding person.

Liang Wendao once said: Reading till the end is to make us more tolerant and understand how complicated the world is. No matter what kind of circle the British study abroad circle is, everyone has their own life. It is important that you have an independent spirit and a strong character. No matter what circle, it's great to be yourself!

Why do so many people want to study abroad now?

The benefits of studying in the UK should be as follows:

There are many well-known colleges and universities in the top ranking.

Among the top 100 universities in the world, Britain accounts for about one fifth, and *** 18 universities are shortlisted. For students with excellent grades, there are more choices for studying in Britain by prestigious schools, and the comprehensive arrangement of schools is also higher. The advantages of returning to China for employment are also more obvious, and the gold content of foreign-funded enterprises is also higher.

Short academic system and relatively low cost.

Most teaching-oriented masters in Britain have a one-year academic system. In terms of expenses, the annual expenses in Britain include tuition and living expenses, and the tuition is generally 65,438+05,000-20,000 pounds for business.

High quality education

Education in Britain allows students to integrate theory with practice, not just theoretical education. Moreover, the professors are very powerful and humorous, and they have foreign students as friends. Have a group discussion or class demonstration together.

Many recognized academic qualifications

The Ministry of Education in China recognizes the education of returnees. Looking at the foreign-related supervision information website of the Ministry of Education, the top 50 schools in the UK are basically eye-catching.

Cultural life is more abundant.

Britain, which is more open in cultural diversity, has a greater tendency to be a country, with good public security, more white people and better cultural experience.

In the past 40 years, Britain's national strength has declined rapidly. The simplest reference index is the pound. Compared with the era of 1970s, the pound depreciated by 50%, which is equivalent to the devaluation of all assets denominated in pound by half. Coupled with Britain's recent withdrawal from the European Union, the economic downturn has been even faster. It can be said that Britain has entered an era without a sense of national direction, and boldly predicts that it may continue to decline in the next 40 years.

1) In the field of science and technology, Britain has fallen far behind the United States and China. The development of Internet, information industry and transportation industry is very slow. Scotland doesn't even have a decent highway, and the locals call it protecting the environment.

2) Modern industry, Britain no longer has a complete automobile industry. Even the mini Cooper has been sold to BMW for a long time, and it is also euphemistically called getting rid of low-profit industries. The development of modern semiconductor industry is also lagging behind, not comparable to the United States and Japan, not comparable to China, which is about to catch up. It can be said that there is no complete modern industry in Britain. If you study in the UK, it is difficult for science and engineering students to find jobs in the UK after graduation.

3) The strongest field in Britain is finance. If you study abroad and major in finance, you can still consider it. Britain's securities trading, auction industry, bulk product trading and so on are still the largest centers outside new york.

4) If you have money at home and don't expect the return after studying in the UK, you can visit the UK. If you really want to study employment in the future, I don't recommend it unless you come to study finance-related majors. America is still the best choice for studying abroad.

Good luck studying abroad!

I didn't know until I came to Britain that there was a huge gap between the university atmosphere in Britain and ours. In our place, the best welfare of the school is almost always for international students. In Britain, the tuition fees for overseas students are sky-high every year. The fees for some subjects are relatively low for local students, but extremely high for overseas students. At the same time, don't think that the school will provide some extra benefits to international students.

In our country, universities should not be too good for the welfare of foreign students: refrigerators, washing machines, special stoves ... I heard that some universities also hold social activities for Chinese and foreign boys and girls from time to time. Simply talk about food, clothing, housing and transportation. Clothes: Generally speaking, most local or non-China students wear simple clothes, but our region, especially our international students, has benefited from the rapid economic development in recent years, and there are many famous brands.

For example, girls come standard with 2.5-inch sachets and UGG snow boots, while boys prefer to wear hot OffWhite and supreme. Food: There are generally only small fast food restaurants on British campuses, and there are only a few kinds of food provided all year round. Not fish, not French fries, not fried chicken pieces, but also various salads and cold sandwiches. There are not a few students who are not used to eating. In addition to heating meals in the school microwave oven, I will also go to the surrounding restaurants to solve it.

Accommodation: Generally, students choose to rent a house off campus. If they want to live on campus, it depends on their personality. Some universities provide dormitory for students on campus, which is envied by many people. Of course, the biggest advantage is that it is close enough to the campus. The closer the rental house is to the school, the higher the price and the more people rent it. It is hard to find a room in a school dormitory. Applicants not only have to be on the waiting list, but often they may not get the steering wheel when they graduate. At the same time, it depends on everyone's specific situation, such as the reputation of social evaluation, and the rent of dormitory is not cheap.

Ok: There are many driving lessons. Generally, there are many parking spaces for tourists on campus, which are free of charge. Of course, some people come to class by various means of transportation. In recent years, compared with rich students, there are more luxury cars on campus. Finally, talk about core teaching. The biggest problem of our students is that they like to hold groups to keep warm. Because of cultural differences, they are always used to interacting with local students. In fact, when they go abroad, they should try their best to integrate and accept the local culture. Otherwise, what is the point of studying abroad?

British famous universities have a long history and strong academic strength, which are favored by students from all over the world. The number of applicants for studying abroad reached a new high last year. Now let's introduce the whole national education system in Britain and the advantages of recruiting China students.

In Britain, which has a long history and rich culture, social etiquette, gentlemanly manners and financial and trade development are favored by people all over the world. Today we will take a look at some situations of studying in the UK.

The full name of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, abbreviated as: written Britain or oral Britain. When we say that Britain usually refers to the United Kingdom or Great Britain, England usually refers to England (a part of the United Kingdom).

The British education system usually consists of the following three parts:

1. Compulsory education (compulsory education)

2. Continuing education (higher education)

3. Higher education (higher education)

1. Compulsory education: In Britain, every child can enjoy free compulsory education for all from the age of 5 to 16, and parents are required to receive their children's compulsory education.

2. Continuing education (higher education)

The characteristic of British education is that in the advanced education stage, students can choose: 1. Academic route; 2. Career path. Choosing 1 can pave the way for future academic research in universities, and choosing 2 can pave the way for future career. Both are equally valued in British society.

The above two options are A-level courses that most international students need to study when applying for secondary schools and universities in the UK. There are more than 100 subjects in the A-level course, all of which last for two years, with students ranging in age from 15 to 18. Students generally consider two aspects when choosing subjects: generally, they will follow their own professional goals and subjects they are good at. In addition, the A-level score will determine the application result of students entering the undergraduate course. The difficulty of A 1 in the first year of A-level is basically the same as that of domestic high school graduates, and the difficulty of A2 in the second year is the same as that of domestic first-year undergraduate students.

British universities have only three years, and the courses of our domestic freshmen are equivalent to their preparatory courses. Therefore, high school students from China or the United States who want to apply for undergraduate courses in the UK need to study in the UK for one year before they can take part in real undergraduate courses in the UK.

In the stage of continuing education, let students consider whether to continue their college studies or choose a job as soon as possible; If you want to go to college, you need to apply for college after two years of A-level courses, otherwise you can choose your favorite career direction courses and start working directly after graduation.

3. Higher education: it consists of four categories: undergraduate (3 years), master (1-2 years), doctor (3-5 years) and advanced diploma (2 years). The first three correspond to bachelor's degree, master's degree and doctor's degree recognized by Britain and America, and the latter is also very useful, which is the highest level of social development vocational education.

Generally, undergraduate education in Britain is more difficult than that in the United States, and it is similar to that in Germany. As a large number of basic courses are completed at A-level, a large number of meaningless courses appear when British undergraduates begin to learn professional knowledge comprehensively. Most local British young people choose to take the SAT to study in the United States in order to avoid difficult undergraduate studies.

According to big data analysis, the research ability of British higher education is very strong. In the past 50 years, Britain has produced 44 Nobel Prize winners, ranking first in the world in per capita award-winning ratio. However, the population of Britain only accounts for 1% of the world population, and scientific publications alone account for 8% of the world total. More than 65,438+03% of the publications used in the world are from Britain. British people read the most in the world, and they can read everywhere. Next to the United States, Britain is excellent in all fields, and most of them are better than other countries; Britain ranks the top two in the world in 15, and rarely falls below the top five in any subject.

Advantages of studying in the UK Studying in the UK has always been popular with students from developed countries in the world. Due to the outstanding performance of British university graduates in all corners of the world, countless outstanding students at home and abroad have been attracted to the UK for further study over the years. Do you know what are the advantages of studying in Britain?

There are many top universities in the world, ranking very high.

Among the top 100 universities in the world, only the UK accounts for about 20%, and 18 institutions are short-listed, so the relative disadvantages of China institutions are obvious. China's top 10 universities can hardly compete with Britain's top G5 universities. For top students with excellent grades, to study in the UK, well-known institutions can choose from a wide range, and the comprehensive ranking of schools is extremely high. After graduation, the employment advantage of returning to China is greater than that of domestic famous school students, especially the world's top 500 enterprises.

Three years as an undergraduate and one year as a graduate, with less total expenses.

Most British graduate students have a one-year academic system, such as MBA and research-oriented master's degree, and the professional exchange has two years. The domestic postgraduate master's degree is two to three years, and time is also very important. You can finish your studies ahead of schedule and have an advantage in employment. British students can generally find jobs two years earlier than domestic students. The annual expenses in Britain include tuition and living expenses, and the general business tuition is about1.5,000 to 20,000 pounds.

High quality education

Compared with domestic education, Britain pays more attention to students' active learning and creativity, and the curriculum knowledge is constantly updated, and the curriculum content keeps pace with the times, covering the latest theoretical and practical achievements, which is very comprehensive; The knowledge before and after is interrelated to form a system, which can train students to achieve mastery in theory and practice. Teachers and professors choose super-strong people to take the lead in teaching, which is humorous. They like to go deep into students, study, discuss and demonstrate together ... they prefer to get along with students from all over the world and be approachable.

Well-known academic qualifications are generally recognized around the world.

Looking at the foreign-related supervision information website of the Ministry of Education, the top 50 schools in the UK are basically eye-catching. Students who want to study abroad need to make full preparations in advance. Domestic civil servants are recognized, and going to enterprises is even more recognized. And British education is recognized in all developed countries.

Cultural life is more abundant.

The life culture in Britain is very rich. There are more and more international students studying in Britain, and cultures of different countries blend with each other, and classical architecture, national costumes and living habits influence each other. But Britain's architecture, clothing and living habits are very different from those of China. We are particularly curious about the classical castles and churches in the west ... and the British also like our open China culture.

As more and more students choose to study abroad in recent years, I believe you will encounter many problems in the choice of country, institution and major, study abroad expenses, employment prospects, application materials and procedures. Jiajia will update relevant information every day for your reference. If you have any problems that can't be solved, you can ask Jiajia directly. She will know everything and talk about everything ~ ~ Here, I sincerely wish overseas students success in studying abroad and success in their careers.

It's a pity that I didn't have a chance to study in the empire that never fell! But I guess there may be two experiences:

1, I feel that many things don't have to wait in line.

You can see many old buildings and other antiques.

Personally, I feel that, to be honest, I am not qualified to study abroad.

In fact, my personal idea, knowledge, does not have to go abroad to study.

If you want your own, Tsinghua and Peking University are the best places to study.

Studying abroad, the first existence, unstable factors.

I suggest that it is best to study in my own country.

Hello, I'm glad to answer your question.

I believe that different people will have different experiences when studying in the UK. Different age groups, different genders, different schools and different regions will all affect the experience of studying abroad.

Here, I mainly answer what kind of experience I will have when studying abroad in the English K 12 stage.

1. Academically speaking, in Britain, children are exposed to many courses in primary school, and then slowly choose their favorite courses in junior high school to learn in depth. When children reach the sixth grade, part of their studies have already involved universities, so most undergraduate majors in Britain only have three years. In the sixth grade, studying A-level has many advantages, such as applying to universities in almost every country in the world, including the United States. At the same time, when students with good A-Level scores apply to American universities, some schools will waive their credits for one semester. Therefore, to study in Britain, you can not only choose your favorite courses, but also receive first-class international education. This kind of experience is helpful for applying for a university and looking for a job in the future.

2. Culturally speaking, the British gentleman and lady culture is world-famous, and the concept of "aristocratic education" is implemented in the whole educational environment in Britain, so that students can cultivate the behavior and character of "gentlemen and ladies" in the whole teaching process. In addition to cultivating students' academic level, it will also cultivate students' social skills and comprehensive quality. For example, learning etiquette, tea art, equestrian, golf and so on. The English people you usually meet are very modest and polite, and this culture will gradually change one's attitude towards others and things.

4. From the perspective of further education and employment, British private schools will provide a large number of extracurricular activities for senior students to apply for university and career guidance, and train children to actively find their own direction in the future. Many schools have cooperative relations with top universities in the world, such as Oxford and Cambridge. At the same time, there is also the exclusive experience sharing provided by alumni, which is very helpful for students to choose universities and majors.

In terms of safety, safety is the most concerned issue for children studying abroad, whether inside or outside the school. The law and order in Britain is relatively stable, especially around schools, with strict control and few violent crimes. Many boarding schools are far from the city center and located in suburbs or villages with good environmental sanitation conditions. Simple folk customs and quiet environment. Nevertheless, students still need the teacher's approval to leave school, and really put the safety of students first.

6. In terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, different regions will definitely have different experiences. But generally speaking, Britain, as a capitalist country, is more convenient to eat, wear, live and travel.

Studying in Britain is an unattainable problem for many people. On the one hand, you can enjoy the unique educational resources, on the other hand, you can broaden your horizons. This is killing two birds with one stone, but more importantly, your pursuit will be higher and higher, because you are in contact with a different country. If you can have such an opportunity, you must cherish it.

I study in a small town which is 0/0.5 hours' drive from London/Kloc. In fact, I also received offer from famous universities such as London University and Exeter University in Ucas. But I chose here mainly because Britain has a two-year undergraduate degree. In fact, if you look at Figure 9, it is obvious that there are actually many universities in Britain that can offer choices besides big cities. It turns out that I was right. Going to small towns is not only a problem of low cost, but also a problem of low competition. You will get more support at school. With the help of enterprises and international offices, I also successfully started a business in the UK. Similarly, the level of teachers will not be bad (Figure 5: John Baucau, Figure 8: British University Minister, Figure 7: former UN Under-Secretary-General John Holmes, Figure 6: Lieutenant General David Leakey of the EU Military Commission).
