I regretted spending sky-high tuition fees to study abroad and get a salary of a few thousand yuan.
I remember when I was a child, I often heard my mother say that when she was studying abroad in college, she spent millions of dollars on tuition, but when she came back, she could only get a salary of a few thousand yuan. At that time, I didn't understand why I had to spend such a huge price when I thought that studying abroad was for better developmentNow, I have also embarked on the road of studying abroad, and I gradually understand the hardships and helplessness.
I used to think that studying abroad was a very glamorous thing, which could broaden my horizons, increase my knowledge, and even change my fate. However, when I actually stepped out of the country, I realized that the road to studying abroad was not easy. First of all, studying abroad requires a huge financial investment. Studying abroad requires paying high tuition, living expenses, and other expenses, and these expenses are undoubtedly a huge burden for ordinary families. Moreover, the amount of tuition fees is often closely related to the financial situation of the country where you are studying, and although the quality of education in some countries is good, the tuition fees are also quite high.
Second, studying abroad does not guarantee future employment prospects. Although studying abroad can gain some professional skills and language skills, it is not easy to find a satisfying job overseas. On the one hand, due to the difference between the domestic and foreign markets, the requirements of many overseas positions for domestic job seekers do not meet the needs of the domestic marketOn the other hand, many international students are unable to find jobs related to their majors after returning to their home countries, resulting in the inability to fully utilize the knowledge they have learned.
Finally, the salary package after returning home is not ideal. Many international students can only get a few thousand yuan in wages after returning to China, which is a little worthwhile compared to the huge price they pay. They spend a lot of time and money studying abroad, but in the end, they don't get the corresponding rewards. This has made many international students feel disappointed and regretful, because they were once full of beautiful hopes and expectations for the future.
In short, my study abroad experience has made me deeply realize that studying abroad is not an easy thing to do, and it requires a huge price and effort. Now I am well aware of the difficulties and difficulties involved, and I cherish everything I have now. If I were given another chance, I would be more careful in choosing my country and major, as well as planning my study abroad plan and schedule more reasonably.
Of course, we cannot deny the value and significance of studying abroad. Studying abroad can indeed expose us to a broader cultural background and academic atmosphere, broaden our horizons and ways of thinking, and improve our comprehensive quality and ability. At the same time, studying abroad can also lay a solid foundation for our future career development and provide more opportunities and choices. However, we should also be aware of the risks and challenges of studying abroad, and be fully prepared and planned.
For those students who are considering studying abroad, I think the following points are worth paying attention to: First, you should fully understand the cost and return of studying abroad, and make a reasonable choice according to your actual situation and financial ability;Secondly, we should pay attention to the choice of majors and curriculum, choose the direction and field that suits us, and pay attention to the cultivation of practical and applied abilityFinally, it is necessary to pay attention to the improvement of personal quality and language ability, so as to better adapt to the overseas living and learning environment.
In short, "I regret spending sky-high tuition fees to get a salary of a few thousand yuan when I come back from studying abroad", there are many helplessness and regrets behind this sentence. However, this should not dismiss the value and significance of studying abroad. Studying abroad can indeed bring us many opportunities and choices, allowing us to better understand ourselves and society. Therefore, we should make adequate preparations and plans before making a decision to study abroad to minimize risks and challenges as much as possible.
