在温哥华寓教于乐的教育体系下, 孩子们一般都会觉得九、十年级还早, 等到十二年纪努努力就可以进入大学。 可从最近一年的大学申请看来, 想要进入一所好的大学, 并不是一件很容易的事情!有许多孩子从九年级就开始参加各种竞赛和活动, 来尽早确定一个努力的目标和方向;然而更多孩子是拖到十二年级申请大学时, 才发现成绩单没有达到大学的入学要求。从今年的大学申请看来, 十年级和十一年级的英文成绩在申请大学时也被列入考察项并且占有一部分很重要的比例, 因此10-11年纪的家长应该更加紧密的与学校和孩子沟通, 及时了解学生的学习情况并且跟进大学的申请信息。 尽早给自己设立一个目标和方向, 从而把十、十一年纪的课程成绩提高到大学的入学标准。 以下是为10-12 年纪的同学们整理的一些大学有关信息以及活动:
