"I have been relying on my intuition in acting, I think professional training would be good for me," she said.

The performing arts major has always been a hit at art universities. This year, the competition has been fiercer, as the planned number of students for recruitment has shrunk while registration is on the rise.

As reported, only 45 candidates will be chosen from the 7,631 registers, or one out of 175.

The universities have also raised the bar in looking for eligible candidates. The Beijing Film Academy, for example, said that other than the usual two rounds of tests, this year there will be three.

Top art colleges in China include the Beijing Film Academy, Central Academy of Drama and Shanghai Theatre Academy.
