My understanding is that most European colleges have entrance exams and only a fraction of people pass. And since entrance is based purely on exams, college admission is a much stronger signal than in the US.

I think it is the other way round.

You can easily enroll in any university you like, but can't advance in that major if held back in the rather difficult weed-out classes.
