Nowadays many Chinese students are interested in studying abroad. They spend much more

time, energy and money on the preparation for studying abroad than on their own majors in

college. And some of them even begin to prepare for GRE and TOFEL at the beginning of their

college life.

Why are they so over-enthusiastic about studying abroad? One of the reasons may be that

they prefer a different style of life, which can open a new world to them and help enrich their

experiences. Moreover, he or she will become a multi-cultural person. Secondly, they can improve

their foreign language quickly, and thus they are likely to get a good job. Lastly, better laboratory

equipment and large amounts of information may be another attraction for many students.

However, as everything has two sides, there are also some problems in attending a foreign

university such as language barrier, lack of knowledge of the local culture, etc. Therefore,

misunderstandings often arise; in addition, the cost of living is so high that the students have to

find part-time jobs in order to help support themselves. This may cause them not to pay full

attention to their studies and fail in their courses and learn little.

So, I think the best way is to work at first for several years after graduation in China before

going out to the foreign countries. It will be better for them not only in finance but also in

experiences, so that they can catch many opportunities to study abroad.
