Choosing a university

Kazumi

Mymain reason for coming here was the Human Rights course. When I was at school I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to be a doctor or a lawyer, but having decided to be a lawyer, I then had to choose which first degree I should take before starting, law school in another city, I’ve always wanted to help people and I figured that taking Human Rights would allow me to learn about how I can make a real difference in the world.

Vladimir

I love maths. I was tom between two possibilities: I could become an engineer and apply maths at a practical level. Or I could become a maths teacher, I needn’t have worried because in the end I didn’t have to choose! I got everything I wanted thanks to my university, which will qualify me to be a high school teacher while gaining a general engineering degree at the same time.

Osvaldo

One of the reasons I chose this university was because of the effort that they put into organizing the open day. The lecturers and current students provide an enthusiastic overview of their courses and of life in the city. This was in contrast to other universities I visited, which just let their reputation do the talking. Although I chose not to live on campus, the rooms there seemed comfortable and very reasonably priced.

Maria

When the time came to select the university, I had three possibilities, but I still could not decide. So it was time to schedule campus tours. They all had their advantages, but this place instantly appealed to me. As soon as I arrived, I was struck by the smiles everyone gave me. What I value most here is the feeling that I am part of a supportive community.

1.Who can obtain a double qualification from his or her university?

A.Kazumi. B.Vladimir.

C.Osvaldo. D.Maria.

2.Why did Osvaldo choose his university?

A.He found the courses affordable.

B.His university sold itself more convincingly.

C.He was won over by the university s reputation.

D.His university offered excellent accommodation.

3.What do we know about Maria?

A.She takes great interest in community service.

B.She made her choice from the very beginning.

C.She feels a sense of belonging at her university.

D.She was hoping to pass on knowledge to others.
