Misunderstanding of application

1. Attach importance to rattan schools and ignore other schools.

Here in the United States, the Ivy League schools are really good. They have long been at the forefront of various rankings, and there have also been elites from various fields in these schools. So some students want to go to such a school when they choose a school.

But most of these Ivy League schools are in the eastern United States, and the focus of education will actually change with the focus of the economy. In the past, many industries in the United States, such as finance, were in the east, but now many industries have moved to the west, so now the focus of education in the United States has slowly shifted to the west, and the education level in the west has improved. Now many schools in the west are slowly catching up with these Ivy League schools. For example, Stanford in the west ranks sixth, and there are many excellent schools in the west. From a global perspective, the important town of American universities is now in the west.

I prefer private schools to public schools.

It is a fact that many famous schools in America are private schools. In fact, Ivy League schools are also private schools, but the public institutions here are not much worse, and their strength is not much worse than Ivy League schools. For example, many students in California are familiar with Berkeley University, but many students don't know that it is actually a public university. So is it a poor academic performance? Not exactly. Berkeley University is not only academically good, but also has a unique style of study. This is a free and inclusive school. Its students even launched the freedom of speech movement in 1964, which has changed a lot here in the United States.

Of course, this school has produced a lot of talents. There are 72 Nobel Prize winners and many winners. In the ranking of world universities, although it once fell, it regained the eighth place last year, but even so, its ranking is still higher than many schools. So here in the United States, not only private schools are better, but also public schools with high strength.
