"Sir, what major should I study when studying abroad?" is probably the question that many students who are learning about studying abroad in general and studying abroad in CANADA in particular are wondering because studying abroad is always a difficult decision that costs billions of dollars, so students need to make the wisest decision for their own future . There are a few basic factors that you can consider when choosing which major to study abroad as follows:
1️⃣ YOUR INTERESTS
What career do you feel is right for you? Many Vietnamese students, after finishing high school, have not yet decided what they like? What career is right for them or have not really learned about a specific career!
2️⃣ YOUR LEARNING ABILITY
There is a very common situation where students will study according to their parents' "wish", or choose to study majors that are called "easy to settle" in a certain country. This is really dangerous because when you officially study, you will feel "weak", unable to keep up and eventually drop out of school. It will take you a lot of time. For example, if you want to study medicine, you need to determine whether your learning ability is suitable or not? Or if you like IT, design, you also need to consider whether you are really passionate about it or not!
3️⃣ FAMILY'S ABILITY TO PAY
Many people, when looking for school information, ignore this factor from the beginning. You need to find a school with a tuition fee that is suitable for your family's finances. There are many schools in the Top Ranking, but looking back, the tuition fee is also at an exorbitant level. Determining the cost in advance will save you a lot of time.
