About 40 percent of local senior high school pupils chose to study at the mainland’s universities for their higher education, a survey released by the General Association of Chinese Students of Macau (AECM) showed yesterday.
The association held a press conference at the U-go Centre in Avenida de Venceslau de Morais yesterday, to release its latest findings of local pupils’ intentions for higher education.
The survey, conducted between June 24 and July 12, collected 1,128 valid questionnaires from 11 local schools’ F4 and F5 pupils holding a Macau ID card (BIR).
