2. Overall situation
In general, the volume of computer science graduate programs is doubling year by year. This year, the following difficulties have been caused by the large expansion of postgraduate retention rates + offline + engineering master's and doctoral reforms:
① The admission rate for postgraduate study has greatly expanded, and we are under the influence of 985. I heard that if NJU has only 10%, it will not be able to keep the school. Southeast CS has a lot of Zhejiang and Nan people coming to sponsor, although it is estimated that they will not come in the end.
② I originally thought that the bars of offline schools could be lower, but it turned out that they were not lower. This year’s offline bars were higher than last year’s online ones, and there were too few schools that offered pre-recommended exemptions for offline schools. I only participated in the entire pre-recommendation exemption. Offline interviews at two schools (because pre-recommendation exemptions are basically only concentrated in the last week)
③The reform of engineering master’s and doctoral degrees seems to occupy the quota for ordinary master’s degrees
All in all, it's very good. Next year, considering that the graduate retention rate will continue to be ++ and the rules and regulations for engineering master's and doctoral degrees will be improved, it is expected that more letters will be sent.
3. Summer camp situation
I planned my postgraduate study relatively early, but there was no accumulation in the early stage of postgraduate study. Many schools looked down upon me and did not sign up for the summer camp. As a result, I was sent in the mail. My opinion is that you should apply overseas. Summer camps are pre-recommended and exempted, and don’t miss out on any school.
The earliest school I contacted was Huake. In March, I contacted the direct post of a sys teacher in a certain Huake. After talking with the teacher, I should be sure to get a direct PhD. However, I didn’t expect that this year’s **Huake Summer Camp will compete with Zhejiang University. The direct PhD will cost ** two During the monthly assessment, I also heard from the doctoral senior that there were several direct PhD contacts from Huake University in the group this year, so I was happy. It's a pity that this teacher is really a fool.
Then the summer camp mainly enrolled students from NTU CS Direct Doctor, Renmin University of Science and Technology Direct Doctor, Harbin Institute of Technology Headquarters, HKUST Network Security, Zhejiang University of Technology Internet of Things, and Southeast CS.
Then I only entered the Science and Technology Network and Southeast University, and was killed by Nanjing University. In nju's summer camp this year, basically any major (cs, se, ai, suzhou) in any project (academic, junior college, direct Ph.D.) 211 only needs rk1, and his pre-recommendation The free bar is higher, even 211rk1 cannot be entered. The bar for RUC's direct PhD program is probably 211rk2 or 3. I seem to have been stuck by an accounting major at the same school, and then RUC College of Letters seems to have a direct PhD bar>professional master's degree. I applied for Zhejiang University of Technology Internet of Things casually because I didn’t expect to go to Zhejiang University of Technology (Le).
3.1HKUST Cybersecurity
The summer camp of the University of Science and Technology is very nice. The accommodation is in a hotel arranged by the University of Science and Technology. No tickets are required, but 100 meals are given. The camp lasts for three days.
The first and second days are visits to introduce some laboratory conditions (you will go directly to the laboratory for a visit). The third day is the interview. The content of the interview is as follows:
The interview at Kewang is relatively abstract and requires two interviews, each lasting about 15 minutes. Then once is the pressure side and once is the normal side.
Interview process: 1-3 minutes of self-introduction in English + project questions + professional course questions (no PPT)
On the Ke.net side, basically if you are not a cyber security major, the teacher will not ask you about cyber security courses (after all, there are not many teachers on the Ke.net who do cyber security).
Then Kewang’s excellent business rate is very high. I calculated it at the time and basically only used Shuangfei (which is not very friendly to Shuangfei). 211 will also use it, but very little, and then the excellent business rate is about 100/120. . However, Kewang Youying is ineffective and you need to contact the teacher. To contact the teacher, be sure to arrive early, and you can traverse after entering the camp. At that time, Shumao contacted a very strong dream guide. After communicating with the seniors in the teacher's laboratory, I felt that I was stable. However, later the teacher told me that his quota was very small this year, and I realized that Shumao was overthinking. At that time, I only contacted one teacher. After being rejected, it was already too late and I basically couldn’t get the teacher, so I gave up. However, there are still a lot of pigeons on the Science and Technology Network in the future. A buddy in the same major was selected twice later. I can only say that I envy the science and technology masters (crying).
3.2 School of Computer Science, Southeast University
The Southeast University summer camp is the most abstract one I have ever participated in, and the administration simply relies on the defense. I remember that he held two online meetings for all camp members. Everyone kept asking about the quota, but they kept avoiding it and just didn't talk about it. Later, when the results of the summer camp came out, I remember it was 30 for college and 25 for academics? I remember that there were a total of 600+ camps in the professional school. More abstractly, Southeast seems to have given some summer camp spots to our school during 929 (that is, after Youyingge left, it would not give any alternates and would directly transfer them to our school), which was very disappointing.
Interview process:
PPT5min + English Q&A + professional courses + resume:
The interviews at Southeast University are divided into many groups, and the interview content of each group is very different. If you are unlucky, you may encounter teachers who only ask about professional courses. The teachers in my group were relatively good, and they didn’t ask many questions about professional courses. They answered all the questions on the resume. I felt very good during the interview, but when the results came out, I found that the ranking was relatively low. Later, I heard from a classmate that maybe the English Q&A place only asked me a very simple English question during my interview, and I simply answered it in two sentences. ).
4. Pre-recommendation exemption
With the lessons I learned from the summer camp, I started applying overseas for pre-recommendation exemption. However, this year’s pre-recommendation exemption was offline, and the interview schedule conflicted, so I only participated in offline interviews at two schools. In addition, many schools have very few places for pre-recommendation exemptions, and the situation of pre-recommendation exemptions this year is even more explosive than that of summer camps. It is recommended that summer camps must apply overseas.

4.1 Sun Yat-sen University
Sun Yat-sen University is the most painful interview for pre-recommendation (crying). After entering the camp in Zhongshan, I contacted a direct PhD student who was a strong supervisor. After being pressured by him and his doctoral students for an hour, I successfully obtained the offer. The teacher also told me that the direct PhD program was basically stable as long as he agreed. But what Shu Shui didn’t expect was that a few days later the religious secretary told Shu Shu that Zhongshan Direct Doctor only wanted 985 instead of 211? ? ? , I was put under pressure for nothing, and then the teacher changed me to a master's degree. However, my experience at the college was not very good. The teacher kept asking me about my professional courses, but I didn’t take any of the Shumao professional courses, and my final ranking was relatively low.
But what Shumao didn't expect was that Zhongshan would wear it again this year. When there were 170 people left in the group, the assistant coach said that everyone should not panic, everyone in the group could be recorded (lol), but Shumai later got it After I graduated from Zhejiang University, I didn’t go to Zhongshan, which is a pity.
I suggest that next year’s junior students should definitely go to Zhongshan, because Zhongshan will definitely wear them, and they will get offers if they go.
4.2 Zhejiang Gong Ningbo Intelligent Information Sensing Project
After talking with the seniors who went to Zhejiang University of Technology in the past, I felt that there are still many good things about this program. At first, I wanted to sign up for the minimum guarantee, but I came here because there was no better one. Zhejiang University of Technology is a pure and strong com. Generally, there is no need to contact the teacher in advance before getting an offer.
Interview process: political and ideological questions (simple political questions) + 2 minutes self-introduction in English + PPT introduction + professional course questions + project questions
The professional course examination is not in-depth, but it may intersperse several professional course questions when asking about your project. Overall, it is not very stressful. In the end, the result of the interview was that he was an alternate, but he was relatively high on the list. Later, I asked the previous seniors and they said that there are a lot of pigeons here, so I felt more stable, and my final destination was confirmed.
After landing, Shu Miao contacted a teacher from XinTian and he has been in the group for a month now (sad).
