News' ranking of the best universities in the world not only integrates the undergraduate and postgraduate education levels of various universities, but also makes an accurate and comprehensive evaluation of the academic research and industry reputation of universities. It uses 12 index to grade universities, in which 10 is the main index. How useful are these dazzling university rankings?
On 5 1 our reporter specially visited the teacher Wen who has worked in the overseas training industry for more than 10 years. Because of my career, I have worked in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, and I have met a large number of China students at ordinary times. When helping students choose schools, they seldom look at the rankings and think that geographical location is much more important than school rankings.
When I was working in Cupertino, California, I helped a student from China. My grades could have hit the number one Northwest University, but in the end, this student chose San in California.
Jose State University.
According to China's logic, Northwest University is far ahead of San Jose State University, but this student is wiser to choose the latter. Because students who want to study computer science don't want to take a purely academic road in the future, they plan to work after graduation.
It is usually difficult for international students in China to find a job after graduation, so it is good to be a "new drifter". However, this student is studying in San Jose, the hinterland of Silicon Valley. Before graduation, he had Apple, facebook, Google and other companies to recruit intership, which would definitely make him find a better job.
In Canada, I also met another elderly law student from China, and the same is true.
The purpose of Canada is only immigration. However, due to the limitation of her major, it is not convenient for her to apply for graduate students. According to the ranking, she should go to some universities in Ontario, BC or Quebec, but it will be very difficult to immigrate because of her age after graduation. Finally, she chose Honghe College in Manetho, Manitoba.
Therefore, choosing a university should be linked to your career and life planning, and geographical location is often more important than ranking.
