Is it true that an individual with low grades who wants to pursue higher education in Germany can do a 1-year preparatory course?

The course covers full-time education in the subjects of a degree program as well as the German language, for 5- days a week. A passing score on the final assessment examination qualifies you to apply for a degree program that is suitable for you at any German university (is it worth or a waste)?

Hi, Yes, it's called Studienkolleg. You have to be accepted by the university even to pursue the Studienkolleg programme so it's not easy and definitely not a waste. If your grades are way below their requirements they may not even accept you.

Do all German universities select a student based on 75% percentage criteria like some universities hold 2-3 places (these rankings are based only on Germany as a region of study) according to world QS rankings?
