When talking about picking a right school,
a mother gave some pieces of advice.
In the latest issue (期) of Youth magazine,
the mother shared the school advice she gave her daughters with young people
across the country.
"I`ve told my daughters many times
that I don't want them to choose a name," the mother said. "I don't
want them to think, 'Oh, I should go to these top schools.' We live in a
country with hundreds of excellent universities. So the first question is:
what's going to work for me?"
"When it was time to prepare for
picking schools, nobody around me believed I could get into Xiamen University.
But through hard work I finally made it," she continued. "So, my
second piece of advice is: believe in yourself, no matter what other people
might say. Once your goal is set, you only need to try your best to make it
come true."
