This chapter discusses the advantages of introducing a broader major from a Eurocentric standpoint, allowing students more time for exploration. It also touches on job opportunities for graduates with multidisciplinary majors and how employers perceive the university attended, emphasizing that the Gaokao exam is a test of perseverance but not a definitive measure of an individual's potential.

As the 2024 Gaokao kicks off on June 7th, millions of students are taking the national college entrance exam, which can greatly impact their futures. Amidst this, a new multidisciplinary major will be enrolling students for the first time. In our discussion, we'll explore practical and emotional strategies to navigate the Gaokao journey, while also considering how these new majors could potentially open up fresh pathways for students.
