1. Is it difficult to take a postgraduate entrance exam?
Some people exaggerate the difficulty of postgraduate entrance exams, and the results scare many students who could have been admitted to graduate school. However, some students have underestimated the difficulty of postgraduate entrance exams and are too light-handed. As a result, the tests that could have been passed are also a mess. Indeed, there should be a correct assessment of the difficulty of the postgraduate entrance exam. It is inappropriate to exaggerate or despise the difficulty, which is sometimes harmful.
For the vast majority of Zhejiang University students, I think the postgraduate entrance is not very difficult, because you can think about it, the National score of the postgraduate entrance exam must meet the enrollment conditions of so many different levels of schools, obviously, it cannot be set too high. The difficulty of the question is also moderate and relatively stable, and you can be aware of it for a long time. At the end of the Zhejiang University examination, the requirements are high. As long as the students carefully review and spend enough time, it should not be a problem.
A lot of work is not done to achieve a certain score, but to minimize the risk of being listed. Maybe you may not be able to get a lot of things you have learned, but they still make sense, because they can reduce the risk that you cannot get a graduate student.
The problem is that many people do not realize this clearly, so they do not think about how to arrange review from the perspective of minimizing accidents, especially for professional courses. The results often fail, it is difficult to take a postgraduate entrance exam.
Of course, the idea that the postgraduate entrance exam is very easy is even more wrong. The postgraduate entrance exam requires a series of work. If you fail to complete a series of necessary work, you will have a very small chance of trying to take a postgraduate exam. It can be said that it is not difficult to take a postgraduate entrance exam only when you spend enough time and energy.
2. Do I have the hope to get a graduate student if I have a good score?
Because the entrance exam for graduate students only takes five courses, it is related to the degree of seriousness of the review, the length of the review, and the correctness of the methods. It is not related to the average academic performance. I knew a graduate from Zhejiang University (30 in the school a year), because I was so confident that I had a good performance and did not review carefully, but I was not admitted to graduate students, and the test was poor (but I went to the first 20 schools in the United States ). However, I heard from the teachers in the Department that there were several students who did not have a degree, and they were not good at finding a job. They did not leave the job, but they only took the postgraduate entrance exam. Therefore, the key to failing to take an exam is how to review the exam. Do not dare to take a postgraduate entrance exam because of poor grades. You can't study as seriously as the postgraduate entrance exam at ordinary times, so the average score is not much reference value, because you may not like learning very much, so you have no intention. Therefore, your average score often does not represent your real level or potential.
3. When should I start preparing for postgraduate entrance exams?
Although I think it is better to determine the desired School and the required major, some university students start preparing for the course as soon as they enter the university or start preparing for the sophomore year, not too much. In this way, the whole university life is completely around the postgraduate entrance exam. In the future, I will recall my college life, And I will inevitably feel that I have given up too many things to take a postgraduate entrance exam. Others have a wonderful college life, however, my college life is still pale.
Therefore, I think if you have decided to take the postgraduate entrance exam, you will learn it very seriously as long as you see the courses you will take in the future, I learned almost the same level as my postgraduate entrance exam (for example, when I was in class, especially before the final exam, I came to see my math review Guide), and I was preparing for my postgraduate entrance exam in the future. Before grade 3, I tried my best to learn all the mathematics courses well and raised the level of English to Level 6 or level 6 as early as possible, which is a good preparation for the postgraduate entrance exam.
If you are a student, I think you can start to study mathematics and some professional courses in my junior year. If it is a cross-Major, it is best to start to learn some of the professional courses or directly read the specified reference books for the postgraduate entrance exam of the major, and then start to read the same title as the specified reference book in the junior year, however, the author has different teaching materials and different content. This increases understanding of the specified teaching materials and reduces the danger of the content that has not been seen during the examination. Recently, due to fierce competition in postgraduate entrance exams, I have heard that many specialized courses in schools exceed the specified teaching materials, sometimes even more than half of the exam content is not found in the specified reference books (mainly in economics and pure liberal arts), so it is very important to read other teaching materials earlier, if the specified teaching material is obviously not authoritative, the content is too small, or the content is not comprehensive, you should carefully study the authoritative teaching material with the same name as the book.
4. What should I do before I officially start preparing for my postgraduate entrance exam?
First, you should try to consult with some old students who have just passed the postgraduate entrance exam. no matter whether they are admitted or not, there are some lessons worth learning. You can try to reduce large and directional errors as much as possible, at the same time, you can ask them to list reference books for you to avoid the trouble of blindly searching for books. The quality of reference books is extremely important. Otherwise, not only will it be a waste of time, but it may not be effective.
Although you may have learned about the enrollment of the school you want to apply for in previous years, and have bought the specified reference books, you still need to pay attention to the changes in the specified reference books in the new recruitment brochures, before you begin to review, you should go to the school's home page and read the new enrollment brochure to check whether the specified reference books have changed.
For those who do not know how to find the main homepage of the students, you can go to China Education and Scientific Research Network to find, here is very full: http://www.edu.cn/HomePage/res/inc/list.php? Listid = 3
You can also check other websites, including:
Http://www.okhere.net
Http://www.kaoyan.com
Http://www.kaoyan.net
But the most important thing is to contact the graduate students in the school you want to read as soon as possible, by phone, email, or during the summer vacation, it is very important to ask them about the test experience, because you can avoid a major mistake in the direction! Don't be afraid to disturb others. Most graduate students are good and enthusiastic.
5. Conflict between postgraduate entrance exams and job hunting, class exams, and final exams
Now that you have chosen to take the postgraduate entrance exam, it means that you do not have much time to find a job before the Postgraduate Entrance Exam ends, nor should you spend too much time looking for a job. Otherwise, you will end up with a blank title. According to my experience, Zhejiang University's annual large-scale on-campus job fairs in autumn are a great test for postgraduate students, because at this time many people feel that the postgraduate entrance exams are quite hard and the days are boring, I was a little shaken about whether or not I could take the Postgraduate Entrance Exam and began to hesitate about whether my decision was correct or not. At this time, once a job can be found at the job fair, or you can find a job that can be found, you will be shaken, there are quite a few people who want to find a job, learn hard, or simply announce that they will not take the postgraduate entrance exam. They did their best and did not find any good job in the end. At least not a few people found such a good job with the job and development opportunities they could find after they got a graduate student, but they gave up early. Many people who are similar to this kind of situation will regret it later, because it is not as easy as some students think after they take the postgraduate entrance exam, the effort is far greater than what should be done by the current time (for example, those who are on-the-job candidates, who need to study late at night after work, but still have insufficient time) and take on more pressure (such as resign for postgraduate entrance exam, family members and friends have high expectations and do not want you to fail because the failure is followed by the financial burden of personal life and family members ).
So I once again stressed that since I want to take an postgraduate entrance exam, I don't need to spend too much time looking for a job before the Postgraduate Entrance Exam ends, but I still think I can go to that job fair on campus, but if you start to get stuck with the job, you can't do it. If you find that you have taken a terrible test after the test, you can also find it during the winter vacation and the next semester after the Postgraduate Entrance Exam (there are many job fairs around the world after the Spring Festival, do not miss out ). If you want to leave a job if you cannot get an exam, you can't get an exam if you want to leave a retreat for your failure.
The postgraduate review is tight, so it seems that time is not enough to review to a certain extent. Are there not many people who want to skip the course to review? To be honest, I escaped about 1/3 courses in my postgraduate entrance exam that semester, because I felt that the time was not enough, and the professional courses offered by my teachers were relatively simple, however, the instructor is not happy to see the students skip the course. Therefore, he must have a good relationship with the instructor and talk more about his/her objective situation. However, in general, if you are prepared early, you may not have to skip the course before you can take a postgraduate exam.
At that time, I thought that the successful transfer to a new major had a huge impact on me, so although I was unable to take the test slowly (in my opinion, even if I was not allowed to take the test in other semesters, for the future of the majority of students, Zhejiang University should also allow the last semester's end exam to take a slow test), and I cannot spend too much time reviewing my professional courses. At that time, I thought, even if I want to retake two or three courses, as long as I have been admitted to graduate school, it doesn't matter if I want to retake. Later, I did not spend much time reviewing the final exam, but I went to the instructor's review and Q &. The review and Q & A sessions in the third year and fourth year are usually very important. The teacher will provide guidance and directions to reduce the blindness of the review, the other is to re-execute all the assignments assigned by the teacher before, so there will be no problems in general. Later, I had a high score and I was lucky.
6. Review arrangement
First, you need to understand the specific requirements of the mathematics you are taking ~ Mathematics 4: the required content and difficulty are all decreasing. In general, Mathematics includes advanced mathematics (calculus), linear algebra, probability theory, and mathematical statistics. However, different majors have different requirements, you must first understand the contents of your math before reviewing the math materials. Do not waste time reading the content that is not required at all. English is the same in arts and sciences, but politics is divided into arts and sciences. Although most of the political content of Arts and Sciences is the same, liberal arts still has some different content.
Not all of the above three public courses are required. Mathematics is only required for the majors of science, agriculture, medicine, and economic management. If you want to take three public courses, there will be only two professional courses. Apart from the many required courses of the University of Peking University, there are not many professional courses in other schools, and the five specified reference books will fluctuate up and down. If you only want to take two public courses (English and Politics), you have three professional courses, and the reference books are specified in 5 ~ About 10 (different schools, please refer to the admission guide of each school ).
To learn about the characteristics of professional courses in different schools, the ideas of professional courses in different schools are often quite different. Some specialized courses are provided according to the specified reference books, and it is easy to buy professional courses for your reference. Some schools do not specify reference books for their professional courses, or they often go beyond the scope of the specified reference books. They like to produce some papers published in recent academic journals or hot topics recently discussed in academic circles (such as laws, I usually want to read the journal of law in recent years. The recent masterpiece and other important articles published by the law professors of the organizations you take the test often look, you have to arrange time to read these papers.
I have already mentioned that I should try my best to finish reading mathematics in my junior year. I think it is best to finish reading mathematics and completing exercises in the auxiliary books before my junior year's summer vacation, then, if you have financial conditions, you can go to some summer public courses and professional courses (depending on your situation ).
I didn't even hear about any tutoring classes in Beijing and Shanghai. I attended the public course tutoring class held by Zhejiang University graduate school at the end of November. I feel that the teaching level of Mathematics Teachers in Zhejiang University tutoring classes is very good, it is very helpful, and other English and political feelings have not improved much. Therefore, I think if you want to take English and political tutoring classes, it is better to take classes in Beijing or Shanghai on a higher level. You must finish the review before attending the tutoring class. Otherwise, you will spend money on it, and the effect will not be at all.
Politics I feel that from the summer vacation, I will read the books prepared by the high education department of the previous year. I just want to read the books edited by Yu xueben and others. I don't have to worry too much about it. I just need to take a look at it first, if you are familiar with it, you will have enough time to recite it from January.
I mentioned above that the cet6 is preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam, but I want to emphasize that the subjects of the postgraduate entrance exam are much more difficult than those of cet6, especially reading and understanding. The style and content of the exam are not exactly the same, do not be careless about the English of the postgraduate entrance exam because the sixth grade is good. Do not carefully review, even if the foundation is good, it is often miserable!
There is an outline vocabulary for the English postgraduate entrance exam. Do not stick back the vocabulary that only contains Chinese characters without example sentences. You should find a book with example sentences and pick out the words you are not familiar, copy it to your laptop and carry it back. Do not cook unfamiliar or unfamiliar words in a pot to increase your memory burden. The basic method for memorizing words is to copy and try to recall words. There are too many things to talk about.
2. Students who have not yet decided to take a postgraduate entrance exam or who have not yet decided to take an exam in any major:
12. Postgraduate Entrance exams should be one of the most important things to consider when you enter the university.
To be honest, no! The first thing is to first shape yourself into a qualified college student, and your study, life, and communication are all going well. Then you will consider whether you are suitable or interested to continue reading.
Many new students have asked if they have any preparation or doctoral questions when they first enter school. But in fact, you must do what you should do in four years of college, and then consider your ideal after four years. Be a qualified college student first.
13. What kind of graduate students do I have?
If you have the strength and determination, you can test your own interests and career coordination majors. If you only want to take the test, you can select this major or other unpopular majors related to this major.
However, you must consider the impact and status of the profession. I feel that in fact, there is no big gap between some professional postgraduate jobs and undergraduates in terms of treatment or opportunities, and sometimes there are even restrictions. If you just take the postgraduate entrance exam for a good job or make money, proceed with caution! You may be disappointed.
However, the graduate students are still qualified (not to rule out case studies), and you will find some very ideal and pursuing students, as long as you work hard, what I learned is indeed an advanced one.
14. About changing majors
If you don't have the determination, endurance, or reliable information source, you 'd better leave it alone. What interests or Hot majors are treated equally in the face of relentless tests, and it will not only reduce any difficulty due to your enthusiasm.
However, now the postgraduate entrance exams are more and more open, and it is easier to take cross-disciplinary exams than in the past few years. As long as you work hard, everything can be done. However, you still need to consider your professional background and knowledge. After all, you have to make a subject and will not sacrifice the quality of study and research for the pursuit of cross-major courses. Therefore, there are limits for cross-professionals, and they are not just interested in what they want.
I would also like to say that your interest may be just interest. when you really want to treat your interest as a professional, maybe your original interest will not interest you.
15. I will take the postgraduate entrance exam after I take part in the work
Varies from person to person. If you are a professional with a good employment situation, you should first take the postgraduate entrance exam. Not lost! Do not consider yourself as a graduate student in terms of the ideal of Scientific Research. Most people are only looking for a good job and earning more money. If my undergraduate course has already earned a lot, don't wait a few years before feng shui changes. Where can I cry? My undergraduate course earned 10 million yuan in 4000 or 5000, and there are also a few 7000 or 8000 yuan. I don't know how many tickets will be signed by graduate students this year? I can only be sure that at least the first two years after my graduation will surely earn less than a considerable number of my undergraduate students! While I was in my undergraduate course, I was the first two students in our class. Of course, our value is not only reflected by money, but our potential is not just linear.
If you really have a higher ideal for yourself and are willing to work hard for it, take the postgraduate entrance exam! After all, the development of master students is still very large (compared with undergraduate or doctoral students ). However, after you pass the examination, you must make more efforts to make yourself an ideal graduate student, rather than be complacent because of this title! The last sentence is what I want to say to my students!
