because this is university, not high school or secondary school. Student at this age can be old enough to decide independently how they do with their study life. Schools from 1st till 12th grade taught you how to be a good student. And it is not school fault that you are not succeed in studying. Its yourself to blame. If prestigious universities lower the standard requirements to let all kinds of students in. Then where is fairness here? Is the effort of good students thrown away?? And actually there is nothing called intelligent student, to be corrected, there is only hard-working student

@KingKami That’s partially right. If you were taught by someone like j Robert Oppenheimer at Berkeley you would’ve gotten a much better education or if you were taught by the likes of resnik, Halliday,Srinivasa ramanujan, Ada Lovelace,grace hopper, David hillbert, Willard Gibbs, Charles Babbage, Stephen hawking,Albert Einstein, Erwin shrodödinger,Niels Bohr, and many more. On top of that you will have access to research facilities and programs you wouldn’t have at a worse college.

[@josefonseca4007]

When I was a student in my country I was always complaining about the low level and dreamt about going abroad to study. Finally, I got admission at one university in Europe and even if the level was higher than in my country, there was nothing special and I felt disappointed, so I studied hard and learnt what at that time was my 4th language and got admission into an University in Germany , only to realize that there was nothing miraculous or impressive there, the only difference was the money invested by the university in some laboratories and publicity. In terms of educational, pedagogical quality was not even better than my home university and most of international students were terrible prepared (most of them didn't even speak german well) and all were there just as part of the quote of overseas students that every university needs. After graduation I continued searching for a superior educational system and i landed in Austria, Italy but also didn't see anything special there. After all those empty educational experiences, I ended up in China at one of the "best" universities but then, I finally understood .. the students worked very hard to get into that school, passed very hard exams and had amazing achievements before applying, and that's what makes the university reputation. An university full of well motivated responsible creative students will logically have the best results and produce successful people. They were successful even before becoming students. After all those years of studying everywhere I realized I had been waiting to magically become more intelligent or receiving kind of "secret" knowledge from those universities . It doesn't where do you study At the end it's just you. I have met people,who studied at very small unknown universities , who are more skilled than people who graduated from expensive / private / top universities,but still receive less opportunities because they don't have a fancy diplom from one of the "good" schools.

[@คณินหมดมลทิน-ป7ซ]

Thank you for sharing. I'm also a student still in my country and in the past I wanted to go study abroad because I have seen many scholarship students who went to top colleges in Europe, USA, Japan. I thought people admired them and wanted to be like them but ended up becoming depressed. I used to think I would go study around the world like you to be like the scholarship students I mentioned but after going through many stressful situations and reading many comments like this I finally give this up.
