Preparing to apply for pre-exemption or postgraduate entrance examination? Where should those on the margins of CS research go? !

written in front

In addition to obtaining the offer of the receiving institution, the postgraduate guarantee also needs to obtain the postgraduate qualification of the undergraduate institution. At present, the list of insurance research institutes for most colleges and universities has not yet been announced. For some postgraduate graduates who are ranked relatively low, it is still unknown whether they can obtain postgraduate qualifications. Next, whether to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination as early as possible or prepare for pre-referral exemption has also become a difficult decision. Then, let’s listen to the island master to analyze for everyone whether to prepare for pre-recommendation or exemption when the qualifications for insurance research are uncertain~

01. Why do I advise you to participate in the pre-recommendation exemption?

#The number of guaranteed research places is on the rise

Everyone can be optimistic

In recent years, in order to alleviate the employment pressure of college students and actively respond to policies such as scientific and technological development, a large number of graduate students have been expanded, and the number of postgraduate guaranteed places has also shown an increasing trend. For example, the opinions put forward by the Shanghai Education Department in 2021 mentioned that it will continue to increase the proportion of undergraduate students recommended and exempted. Many universities responded to the policy opinions of the education department and increased the number of recommended and exempted graduate students.

Not only in Shanghai, but also in colleges and universities across the country, the number of postgraduate exemption places has increased to varying degrees. For example, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics has 875 recommended places for the class of 2022 and 987 for the class of 2023, a net increase of 112 people ; Compared with the 2022 session, the 2023 session has a net increase of 89 places ; the 2023 session of Huazhong University of Science and Technology has a net increase of 88 places compared with the 2022 session . Therefore, even students whose grades are on the edge of postgraduate entrance examination should not be too anxious. Although the rankings of the students may not be optimistic based on the previous recommendation and exemption situations, judging from the situation of postgraduate protection, the number of recommended exemption places in major universities may increase this year, so the probability of students getting the recommended and exempted places is still very high.

#Pre-recommendation is free of time, and the quota will be announced before submitting.

There are no good projects left.

The time schedule for the pre-exemption of different schools is relatively tight. The time between the release of the admissions notice and the pre-exemption of the official examination is relatively short, and the time for material submission has also been shortened. Some schools even pre-exempt within two or three days . The promotion activity is completed. For example, the School of Computer Science, Huazhong University of Science and Technology issued a notification on September 17, 22, and the registration deadline for the pre-admission was closed on the 20th ; Notice that applications for pre-promotion exemption will close on September 6th.

Therefore, students need to pay attention to the pre-exemption notices issued by major universities in a timely manner, and often check the news on the official website and official account to prevent missing the deadline for admission notices and submission of materials. In addition, students need to pay attention, try not to wait until the postgraduate list is announced before submitting the pre-admission exemption items. The pre-admission exemption items for CS majors in different schools are generally released from late August to early September, but the postgraduate list is generally publicized. It will be around early to mid-September. If you wait until the list of insurance research institutes is publicized before submitting, basically the quota for the pre-recommendation exemption program has already been fully recruited. Although you are not sure whether you can get the insurance research quota, it is best for students to sign up in advance.

#Prepare plans that will help you prepare for future postgraduate entrance exams

You can communicate with your instructor in advance

Even in the worst case of not being qualified for postgraduate education, students can still communicate with their favorite college tutors and participate in written tests and interviews in advance, which will be of great help to students who want to take postgraduate entrance examinations in the future, at least You can also become familiar with the instructors.

Reviewing professional courses does not conflict with preparation for postgraduate entrance examinations

The pre-recommendation exemption examinations of different colleges and universities basically cover the assessment of students' professional knowledge. Some schools even ask students to take written tests and computer-based tests. The professional questions in the written tests are generally set according to a certain framework. The professional examination questions in the postgraduate entrance examination of the same institution are basically framed according to the bibliography provided by the institution. Therefore, when students are preparing for the two exams, there are certain commonalities in the knowledge points, and the two do not completely conflict.

02. How to prepare for pre-exemption?

1. Complete personal documents and materials

First of all, students should pay careful attention to the materials that are pre-recommended and exempt from the requirements. Some students who have participated in previous summer camps may take it for granted and send the previously packaged materials directly by email. The admissions teachers of the other school may directly screen out the materials that do not meet the standards. In the past, some students lost their eligibility to participate because they did not see clearly the pre-exempt materials.

Secondly, students who have participated in the summer camp may already have a written document, but it is best for students to update their original resumes on the previous materials, add some new experiences and achievements, and modify them according to the preferences and concerns of different institutions. Materials such as self-introduction, personal statement and resume. Finally, when submitting materials by email, students should pay attention to the wording of the email and details in the materials, and try to avoid typos and unclear semantics.

2. Contact the instructor in advance

Whether in summer camp or pre-recommendation, it is best for students to contact their favorite instructors in advance, which may increase their chances of landing. Although in a school with a strong com, the teachers don't have a lot of voice, but to a certain extent, it also determines the students' interview scores. Students need to maintain a humble attitude and tone when contacting teachers via email or social software, prepare their resumes and personal statements, and actively contact teachers.

3. Prepare professional basic knowledge

The pre-exemption meeting will assess the professional knowledge of students. Students need to actively prepare basic professional course knowledge, review the professional knowledge learned in class, and conduct targeted consolidation and review of the professional assessment direction of the school they are applying for. For computer security researchers, students need to actively prepare professional course knowledge, such as basic knowledge of data structure, computer composition principles, operating systems and computer networks, as well as basic knowledge of computer examinations.

In some colleges and universities, it may be more difficult to pre-recommend computer-based test-free assessment, so students need to actively prepare for computer-based test assessment.

4. Improve your English speaking skills for interviews

Whether it is summer camp or pre-recommendation, most school interviews will involve English speaking interviews, which require students to have relatively high English speaking skills. Therefore, students can try to listen to some English materials every day, spend some time practicing speaking English, and prepare Good basic English self-introduction and English drafts of some professional routine questions, try to conduct limited-time oral English interviews every day, and prepare in advance.

In addition, it is best for students to simulate interviews in front of the mirror to relieve their anxious state of mind, try to conduct interviews naturally, repeatedly check their interview performance, correct their possible unconscious little actions, and achieve the best interview results.

03. Some small suggestions

Pay attention to the school’s postgraduate qualification evaluation policy

Students should actively pay attention to the school's postgraduate qualification evaluation policy , which may change every year. In recent years, there has been a trend of expanding enrollment for postgraduates, which is a good opportunity for marginalized graduate students.

During the summer vacation from junior year to senior year, there are still many things that people on the margins of insurance research can pay attention to.

On the one hand, students can pay more attention to the new additions in the postgraduate insurance policy or the extra points that still have the opportunity to increase points. Some schools recommend and waive the assessment later, and may not be assessed until mid-to-late September. Therefore, before that, students We can seize the last chance to protect the parts that we can add points, such as papers, competitions, patents, etc. On the other hand, students can also actively inquire about the plans of the top-ranked leaders in the class, such as whether to go abroad, whether to use information such as whether to use the innovative insurance research quota, etc., to judge the possibility of obtaining the insurance research qualification, and to do so Make your own plans.

Preparation for postgraduate entrance examination and postgraduate entrance examination

If you are not sure about the possibility of obtaining the postgraduate qualification, and students feel too uneasy, you can prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination and postgraduate entrance examination at the same time, and prepare in both directions. Being prepared can both increase your chances of admission and provide an alternative. However, if students think that it is unlikely that they will obtain the postgraduate qualification, and they feel that preparing for pre-exemption and postgraduate entrance examination at the same time is not effective, they should try to reduce their dual-purpose efforts and mainly concentrate on reviewing for the postgraduate entrance examination.

Pay attention to programs that do not require postgraduate qualifications or other postgraduate pathways.

• No need for postgraduate qualifications for further studies

Master of Engineering is a kind of professional master's degree, which is an engineering professional degree, aiming at cultivating professional leaders who can solve complex engineering technology problems. Due to deficiencies and limitations in the setting model of engineering professional degrees, the State Council has made adjustments to engineering professional degrees.

In recent years, many universities have reformed and piloted the training model for engineering master's and doctoral degrees. The enrollment requirements can be students who meet the exemption requirements but have no quota for exemption. The training mode is a school-enterprise combination, mainly combining on-campus learning and practice in the enterprise. Many students in this program may be given priority in admission by cooperative enterprises after graduation. Researchers can actively pay attention to such projects in various colleges and universities, which are very attractive to employment-oriented students.

• Other ways to secure research studies

In addition to the normal exemption method based on performance ranking, students have other ways to exclude students . For example, supporting education and postgraduate study, administrative postgraduate guarantee, etc. These forms of postgraduate guarantee do not occupy the college's postgraduate guarantee quota.

When students feel that it is difficult for them to obtain postgraduate qualifications through normal promotion and exemption methods, they can try other ways.

Supporting education and postgraduate studies can generally only be maintained at the school. Students are required to have experience as student cadres and have taught for more than one year, but the academic performance requirements for students are not high. The administrative insurance research is generally guaranteed to the school. After graduating from senior year, students need to work as counselors in the college for two or three years, and then they can study in the school for postgraduate study.

• Maintain a good attitude and learn to regulate anxiety

Postgraduate study is a long process and may take a long time. Students may experience repeated setbacks and failures, so they often feel uneasy, anxious, painful and sad, but immersing themselves in anxiety and uneasiness is of no benefit to reality. Students should work hard to maintain a good attitude to face the insurance research, adjust their anxiety at all times, and learn to persuade themselves. Only by working hard will you gain something.

write at the end

The world is undecided, and you and I are both dark horses. I hope that the students can actively participate in the pre-exemption activities and work hard to achieve their own results. The island owner wishes every graduate student can go to his dream school!
