Directions：For this part，you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the challenges of studying abroad. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

There is a widespread concern over the issue that whether studying abroad is a good choice after graduation. People, however, differ in their opinions on this matter. From my personal perspective, I hold that it is advisable for the students to study abroad after graduation.

There are a variety of reasons for studying overseas. On one hand, students can enrich their knowledge and enlarge their horizons by being exposed to new cultures. On the other hand, the students going abroad can cultivate the spirit of self-dependence. In addition, overseas degrees from top universities in the world can provide more competitive advantages for their future careers than those obtained at home.

To make a long story short, it is sensible that we should take a rational attitude when we make a choice. Only in this way can we shoulder the real success.
