Watch Out!

To say that philosophy, languages and French we balance is completely untrue !!!

In contrast, tests of language and French / philo competitions have a non-negligible importance, and often make the difference for admission to Central / Supelec or contest Mines / Bridges. Thus, in writing, the most important factor in is that of the French Central ... (event by event, but there are two in math and physics course)

So do not go on "is science, so I do not care literary materials"

Finally, it is completely untrue to say that the level of prépas is the same everywhere "because the program is the same"

The top ten prépas of France are the best because they may have the best students, but also because the "perks" of the program are discussed, the number of classroom exercises done is more important, the hourly volume too, etc ....

Thus, a student who is in the last 4 to Henry can get into the top ten in St. Louis (which is nevertheless a very good high school also!)

To return to the original question, I think that aiming Chaptal, Fenelon, Janson de Sailly (in Paris), Kléber (Strasbourg), Poincaré (I do not remember where, sorry ...) for example is very widely.

Voili voilu I hope I have helped

Re: Skip Ulm as an independent candidate

The main advantage I see is the ability to only and only math and a little info or physics (or no physical) and no materials related and thus finish (assuming you learn as much without teacher, I believe with good books but it is not the case for everyone) with a higher final level in math. Indeed, as an independent candidate we can do a lot more math. During some days of vacation I happened to do more than 12 hours of maths in the day. Without going at this pace every day, we imagine the level in the long term if someone predisposed to mathematics actually ten hours a day for 2 years - impossible in prep material out with math (mainly physics) too time consuming. However, the higher level he will remain in M1 and M2? Not obvious.

Public relations

Public relations (PR) is the practice of managing the spread of information between an individual or an organization (such as a business, government agency, or a nonprofit organization) and the public. Public relations may include an organization or individual gaining exposure to their audiences using topics of public interest and news items that do not require direct payment. This differentiates it from advertising as a form of marketing communications. The aim of public relations is to inform the public, prospective customers, investors, partners, employees, and other stakeholders and ultimately persuade them maintain a certain view about the organization, its leadership, products, or of political decisions. Public relations professionals typically work for PR firms, businesses and companies, government, government agencies, and public officials as PIOs, andnongovernmental organizations and nonprofit organizations.
Public relations specialists establish and maintain relationships with an organization's target audience, the media, and other opinion leaders. Common activities include designing communications campaigns, writing news releases and other content for news and feature articles, working with the press, arranging interviews for company spokespeople, writing speeches for company leaders, acting as organization's spokesperson by speaking in public and public officials, preparing clients for press conferences, media interviews, and speeches, writing website and social media content, and facilitating internal/employee communication. Success in the field of public relations requires a deep understanding of the interests and concerns of each the client's many publics. The public relations professional must know how to effectively address those concerns using the most powerful tool of the public relations trade, which is publicity. More wiki/Public_relations
