<p>@sefago, Qinghua and Beida are the best universities in China. </p>
<p>and honestly, i went to China and saw the review materials for the gaokao, and the chemistry/physics/math sections were extremely difficult. for an american student to take the test and get good results is extremely difficult simply because most of the material we cover in high school is very general. the math section of the gaokao is like the amcs, if not harder.</p>
