Being a student is tough. Not to mention, in college, life is a lot more challenging than you think. Let alone entering it. For most students, this endeavor is a scare. That is because in order to get to that position, you need to be serious about what you are doing. This is also the reason why in high school, there are certain units of advanced course offered.

As expected, college is not a joking place where you can just pass with qualifying for the position. Unlike the grader school years where you are not made to take a qualifying exam. Well in high school, you need to pass an entrance exam. But then with college, things would be not as easy as taking an entrance exam. That is why high schools took the initiative to offer advanced academics.

Here is an analogy of the educational tracking. In the entire population, only seventy five percent gets to afford an elementary education. Come high school, that number then decreased to fifty percent. And when it came to college, things got worse and only twenty percent were able to succeed. Not to mention, only a few of the entire population get to graduate.

However, this result may actually not only be because of academic reasons alone. Of course, there are other factors too, but then academic failure is one of the greatest contributor to this ability. So in order to help students get through with their endeavor, several schools employed the system of offering advanced courses.

Actually, in the US, this system is very rampant. But then the flow of the subject vary from one place to another or from one school to another. Basically, in this program, students are given a glimpse of what university is all about. So they are exposed to some subjects and situations which are present in college. Given this, they will be able to understand a little background.

Aside from that, they will also be conditioned that going to a university is just within their reach. So instead of having fear, they will be motivated to proceed to the level. Given this, they will find studying interesting and with it, they start to display some enthusiasm about the idea of undertaking the endeavors there are in a university.

At times, the subjects are embedded in the curriculum such as the electives like EL Math, EL English, etc. While others are just a separate short course. Another good benefit of this academic endeavor is that you also would also be given a review of your past lessons while also learning new ones.

But aside from educational institutions, there are also businesses offering this kind of endeavor. Usually, they offer a review and some units of advanced lessons just like the schools do. So for students whose school does not offer this program, these businesses will serve as a help.

With this, the qualifying exam would not be a scare for them anymore since they are well prepared for it already. And true enough, with the implementation of this program, the population of passers improved. Aside from that, students did not find it difficult to face the reality of the course anymore.
