About studying abroad in senior three.

Now that I'm a sophomore, if I haven't started preparing, time will be a little tight. The normal application time starts after your summer vacation next year, and then the school will come and receive the letter around Christmas, and then it will be around Labor Day the next year, so you should prepare all the materials around 1 year.

Basically, Canada is very easy. It's almost enough to get the money ready at home. It's okay for you to find an intermediary to help you apply for TOEFL. In America, it's more difficult, because besides TOEFL, you have to take the SAT, but if you speak English well, it's not a big problem to prepare.

As for persuading parents, to be honest, many high school students have not yet thought about the problems they may face after going abroad. I strongly suggest that you think about all the problems you may encounter, the language problems in your study life, and the changes in your circle of friends, including the difficulties you may encounter in your studies and exams. Parents don't trust you to come out because they have their own considerations. After all, high school students should have no independent experience, including the most basic living ability of buying food and cooking. In fact, the 2+2 scheme is better for domestic universities. After studying for two years, I can feel the domestic university life, exercise my independent ability, and receive excellent foreign education during the study stage of professional courses, which also has a good starting point for further study.

If you choose a country, the United States is definitely better than Canada, otherwise Canadians will not want to go to the United States, and they have never heard of Americans wanting to immigrate to Canada. But if you want to immigrate in the future, Canada will definitely be easier. Going abroad depends on yourself. Few people can really help unless it is their own family, so parents just want a psychological comfort. . . It's not easy for everyone to come out. It is impossible to expect someone to take care of you like your parents.

Studying abroad is the same as traveling, but you don't need any complicated background to apply for an undergraduate course. You can provide that proof, and then tell me that you have experienced the learning atmosphere in the United States and feel yearning for it, so you applied for an American school. Ask about the visa as soon as you get the admission notice. It's too early to worry.

Generally speaking, recommend an intermediary, let your parents show you around more, see what people predict about your situation, what school you can apply for, and see if the successful examples in the past are close to yours. Don't blindly follow the advice of friends and relatives around you, because success is not necessarily the best for you. If the school chooses an intermediary for you, they will be responsible for you if they take your money. I don't know your situation, so I won't talk nonsense.
