1. Advantages and conditions of preparatory study in Australia

First, the advantages of preparatory classes for studying in Australia

Preparatory courses are prepared by Australian universities for international students, because the official language and teaching language of Australia are English. After China students arrive in Australia, it will be difficult to study formal courses directly because of language problems. Moreover, the teaching methods and habits in Australia are different from those in China. After China students arrive in Australia, it is easy for them to drop their grades and fail their courses. Therefore, they should study in the preparatory course for one year, giving students a transitional time to adapt as soon as possible when they enter the formal course.

The Australian preparatory course is also a stepping stone for you to enter a prestigious school. Many students missed it because their grades were not very good or their English scores were not up to standard. You can choose the preparatory course at this time. The application conditions for preparatory courses are lower and it is easier to apply. After applying for the preparatory course, it is equivalent to another chance for you to sprint to a famous university.

It should be noted that preparatory courses in Australian universities only play a role in promoting foreign students to adapt to English teaching mode, and are not entirely English training courses. Many foreign universities generally require international students to pass the preparatory course of the previous year before entering the university to continue their undergraduate studies.

Second, the conditions of preparatory classes for studying in Australia

Education: Generally speaking, you can directly apply for the preparatory course of an Australian university after finishing the second year of high school in China, and you don't need to take the college entrance examination in China.

Language requirements: IELTS requirements of different universities and different types of preparatory classes will be different. Generally speaking, IELTS scores need to be above 5.0 or above 5.5. Of course, there may be some small partners whose IELTS scores can't meet the requirements. In this case, we can make up for it by reading a corresponding number of language courses.

Ordinary grades: applying for Australian matriculation generally requires more than 65% grades, and a good matriculation even requires more than 80% grades.
