Postgraduate entrance examination consultation series: how to choose schools and majors
This is some matters needing attention about choosing a major put forward by some senior postgraduate students. People often say: "Interest is the best teacher." People are often full of enthusiasm for things they are interested in, no matter how hard and tiring these things are. Therefore, it is very important to choose your favorite major for postgraduate study. It is precisely because what you study is your interest that you will not take the postgraduate entrance examination as a burden and swim happily in the ocean of knowledge as a boulder that cannot be put down. Because of my love for translation, I did not hesitate to apply for the Foreign Affairs University when I chose a school. Translation, as its name implies, involves the comparison between two languages, among which the knowledge of choosing words and making sentences is very great and really intriguing. Looking at those famous translated masterpieces, I can't help making a fool of myself. It is interesting to compare one's own poor works with the original translation or provide them to teachers and friends for discussion. In this way, translation is not only no longer a formal examination subject in my timetable, but also a pastime for me to study hard to cure diseases. The most taboo of postgraduate entrance examination is to blindly pursue "popularity" and ignore its own conditions and advantages. Among English majors, business English and translation are hot, while literature, linguistics and teaching methods are cold. Popular majors often form a situation in which thousands of troops cross the wooden bridge, while the advantages of unpopular majors face insufficient enrollment. Therefore, candidates must choose schools and majors according to their own interests. It is a good opportunity for students who are not clear about the direction of postgraduate entrance examination to apply for the "unpopular" major. After careful consideration, I entered the accounting department of China Renmin University (from the English Department of China Capital Normal University). Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, China Renmin University and Xiamen University are all well-known accounting teachers. I originally applied for Xiamen University. Later, I felt that China Renmin University has a good geographical location, and Beijing is the political center of the country with a lot of information. Besides, the accounting department of the National People's Congress has a strong faculty and gathered many well-known professors in the accounting field, so I chose the accounting department of the National People's Congress. At that time, the admission score of basic subjects in the Accounting Department of the National People's Congress was 372, and the admission ratio was 1: 10. (China Renmin University, Department of Accounting) Choosing a major mainly depends on the candidates' own interests and their own strength prediction. Of course, applying for professional teachers is also a factor to be considered. Because the postgraduate examination of Peking University School of Economics adopts a unified proposition, the admission is also unified, from high score to low score. Therefore, candidates should not think too much about this professional problem at first. The most important thing is to concentrate on practicing "internal strength". As long as you pass the score line, you can be transferred to other majors even if you are not admitted to the original major. Of course, candidates who refuse to go and deploy majors should also "put all their eggs in one basket". In addition, one of my guiding principles is to apply for a good major as much as possible to avoid the regrettable result of "high scores but poor majors". (Zhang Wei, majoring in international trade in Peking University University of Economics) Last year, I entered Guanghua School of Management of Peking University as the first in management. But for me at that time, making a decision was a challenge. Of course, I never doubted my decision. I always believe that challenge is a way to make people feel that life really exists. My undergraduate history was automated, and many people seemed to be good majors at that time. But career, like love, is not judged by others, but by suitability and consistency. Although I was crazy about science and engineering when I was a teenager, I had a wide range of interests. Since my junior year, the university has put a lot of economic reading books and professors, minored in management, and gradually developed a strong interest in economic management. It suddenly occurred to me that my lifelong career is to seek a balance between natural science and social science. In addition, the democracy, science, freedom and broadness of Peking University have always been my deep yearning, and I have always been eager to rush into reality and reflect my self-worth. After several years of thinking, I gradually saw many shortcomings of myself. In the next semester of my junior year, I made up my mind to take the postgraduate entrance examination. Because I know more and more that Peking University is my goal, School of Management is my goal, and graduate school is also my goal. After many investigations, I chose the management science major with both arts and sciences. (Feng Gang, Guanghua School of Management, Peking University) Two years ago, I majored in computer application. Suddenly decided to apply for graduate students majoring in quantitative economics. First, I feel that the cold keyboard and flashing cursor are too impersonal. The second is to dream of using computer as the most advanced tool in the research of current economic hotspots; Thirdly, it is a very attractive idea to quantitatively study the economy by establishing a mathematical model. In short, it uses the "decision principle" of the social development trend of individual lovers. China Renmin University, China Academy of Sciences, Dongbei University of Finance and Economics, Shanghai University of Finance and Economics and capital university of economics and business are the schools that have done well in quantitative economics research. I majored in digital economy in capital university of economics and business. The doctoral program has passed the national examination and approval, and the graduates are mainly distributed in financial institutions, enterprises, research institutes and some state organs. Professional course exams mainly include political economics, western economics and program design. Welcome friends who are interested in this major to apply. (Guo Xinzhong, Department of Information Science, capital university of economics and business) I took the postgraduate entrance examination mainly because I prefer campus life. Moreover, the four-year undergraduate course gives me the feeling that I have only benefited from studying one subject, but only touched on the accounting field roughly. In the third and a half semester, we went to an accounting firm for an internship, and only then did we really get in touch with the life of accounting professionals, which made me really interested in accounting. I want to learn more advanced knowledge, so I chose to take the postgraduate entrance examination. The future society puts forward higher requirements for people's knowledge level. The more society progresses and develops, the more knowledge we need to master. Therefore, when I was young, I had better conditions in all aspects. Studying professional knowledge systematically and improving my own quality is also beneficial to my future development.
