The Gaokao is a battlefield without smoke. Since the 1980s, it has been known as the "shortcut to changing one's destiny," and as a result, this "single-plank bridge" has been crowded by people ever since. For many, the Gaokao is a "make-or-break" exam; success means "bringing honor to one's family," while failure means 12 years of hard work go up in smoke.
WorldWay has learned from the official website of the Ministry of Education that the number of Gaokao applicants continues to grow this year, exceeding ten million. This means that the situation of "thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge" will only become more intense.
Against the backdrop of the two-child policy, you can estimate
how many candidates will be competing with your child in the year they take the Gaokao?
In fact, behind every Gaokao candidate lies over a decade of personal effort, the earnest expectations of parents, and the painstaking teachings of mentors. Undoubtedly, every child has a dream of attending a prestigious university, but reality is not always satisfactory. There are always various reasons why many children cannot get into their preferred schools. Is the Gaokao the only path? Of course not!
In recent years, with the shifts in the international landscape and the surge of China's "going global" trend—from the proliferation of international schools to the growing popularity of studying abroad—more and more parents have joined the ranks of those seeking overseas education to help their children win at the starting line. Beyond domestic competition, they are providing their children with an overseas identity and access to international education to seek a broader platform for growth.
If you do not want your child to struggle in a sea of test papers, and do not want them to reap disappointment after all their hard work, then planning ahead and gifting your child an overseas identity may be one of the best gifts you can give. It allows them to avoid the "thousands of troops squeezing onto the Gaokao single-plank bridge" while also receiving high-end overseas education.
