Frequently Asked Questions
If you're serious about academics and have clear goals, you need to stay focused. But if your interests lie in fields like dance, singing, acting, or other media-related careers, then BESC is a great place for you—it offers a lot of opportunities in those areas. The faculty is also good enough. But at the end of the day, how well you study depends entirely on you. Many students here come from wealthy families and often take college lightly, spending their time and money without much purpose. Coming from a middle-class background myself, I understand the value of education and the importance of making the most of it.
