What are the advantages of learning photography in the college entrance examination? Will it delay the normal class?

I graduated from college this year, and I studied photography in the college entrance examination, which has no influence on the college entrance examination, because the task is lighter than other arts, and now many colleges and universities have photography majors. One suggestion is that you should know some basic knowledge of art, such as sketching, because some schools will ask to take the art exam in the college entrance examination.
