Hello everyone, i would like to open a discussion about higher education studies in different world. I would like to discover the education level of my country, meanwhile, i can tell you a lot of info about other education systems. And of course, we get to know each other !!!, that's the most important isn't it????

One comment and one question.
Your title is misleading.
People at the American university where you study, are they sarcastic?

Good Luck All Students

Hi, You need to do the TOEFL exam ( there is in Algeria), it is an English test and you need to study well for it. Besides that, you need to have you BAC with good trades, i don't know exactly how much grades they need, but it is high. In my university, i think in order to enter it, you need to have at least 15 or 16 in the BAC. and do not forget the TOEFL. We don't call them specialties, it is called majors, there are many majors, like business and its branches ( economics, finance, marketing, ....), and also department of engineering, there are the three traditional engineering fields( mechanical, cevil, and electrical) and also computer science and industrial engineering. there are also things about English, Arts, Architecture, natural sciences , there is no medicine, law or political science.

Hi, what up guys? Dadi u better not bother yourself of knowing bout our system, coz comparing to the one you've got it sucks. Actually i didn't get to know all bout how it works yet coz I've just got my bac this year but I can tell it's so deficient.
Wish you'll get enough credits, or whatever u call them to pass your exams, peace

It is always easy to blame and overlook some pros of the Algerian education system.
The free tuition and free student housing are non negligible if you compare with top countries
in high education, such as UK or USA.

In USA, by the time a student graduates, he/she is expected to pay off his/her
student loans in 10 to 20 years, on average. Often, these students have to work
to provide for themselves and pay rent during school. This is why it is frequent
to find more international students than American students at US grad schools.
Obviously, Americans are more tempted to start working
to pay off their debt.

Now, if you are a competent student, there are always some good universities
in Algeria. Hopefully, when you graduate, you may be able to join a grad school abroad
and avoid any debts. Some graduate students even manage to find jobs abroad with their
Algerian degree.

I am not sure what opportunities you are looking for?

If you are talking about job opportunities in Algeria, it depends on your major: some
majors such as electrical engineering or computer science have more job opportunities
than others. For the other majors with low openings, it may
depends on who you know rather than what you know.

If you are talking about opportunities abroad,
again, your chances depend on the university you graduate at and on grades you obtained in
addition to your lan-gu-age skills.
I already mentioned two things you can do abroad with an Algerian degree (just check how many
students could pursue a master or phd degree in France, for instance). Nonetheless, it is true that
some majors such as engineering are more likely to open doors for you. Others such as humanities
or medical sciences are usually not recognized abroad.

Exactly! i'm getting if god will into medicine college, u know how much hard work you should put during long years to study it but at the end u don't seem to have any chance neither to study nor to work outside. However i'm not thinking of going abroad, then in Algeria if u wanna get a job it's only available in medcine or education field.
I knew you're kinda artist, have u got job for this? :-)

With a medicine degree you can also get a "délégué médicale" job which is generally well payed.
Do not listen too much to what random people say, you better ask advise from successful people in your
field, ask senior students as well as practicing physicians (doctors) and make your own opinion.

We have ALL to remember that in UK or USA or even arabic countries you have to pay a lot to study, nothing if for free, the case is different in Algeria, almost you pay nothing.
So you can imagine what will happen if we have to pay to study,
To be honest, 99% want to study to have a high salary, no matter how they get thier diplomat. so if they will be obliged to pay to study, many will quite studies after they get the first diplmoat.

It is not only about the system, it is about Algerian people as well. We share responsability.
