Young Mongolians dream of studying at Turkish schools

Mongolian students, who deem the Turkish schools in the country as the keys to secure a bright future, sweated out the entrance exam of the schools.


Turkish schools, in operation in Mongolia since 1994, held their annual entrance exams on May 4. The schools are so much in demand that, to be able to qualify, candidates prepare for these exams by attending months-long preparation courses. Mongolian students’ another dream is to study in Turkey. Parenthetically, during the Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s recent visit to Mongolia, his Mongolian counterpart Noroviin Altankhuyag told PM Erdogan that a minister and a senior official in his cabinet studied in Turkey.

The students who pass math, IQ and Mongolian exams will be interviewed to ultimately qualify for their dream schools. Turkish schools officials said about two thousand students take these exams every year to be among the four hundred admitted.
