In the past few days, there has been a hot search on the screen, which reads: Girls have been in graduate school for two months and tell that the atmosphere is like a siege.
As a worker in the education industry, Junjun can understand the reality of this girl when she sees this kind of news.
Because, many students find out after graduate schoolGraduate school entrance examination is the easiest thing to do in the whole graduate school stage。Because at that time, there was a goal, a method, and a motivation.
However, when I actually go to graduate school, the motivation to get into graduate school disappears, and when the strong sense of purpose is erased from my life, this confusion about life will come back again.
The reason why this girl feels painful when she goes to graduate school is that she didn't choose a good major and didn't know the prospects of her major, just because she had a bachelor's degree and a master's degree, and she didn't understand her ability to be good at before going to graduate schoolThe other is that he did not adjust his Xi from the way of learning for undergraduates to the Xi of the first type of learning for graduate students.
For those who want to take the postgraduate entrance examination, Junjun will first tell you what is the difference between graduate school and undergraduate, and Junjun will borrow a paragraph to explain it to you:
Mr. Hua Luogeng, a famous mathematician, compared the relationship between tutors and graduate studentsThe tutor is responsible for pointing out the rabbit to the graduate student and guiding the student to learn the skill of rabbit hunting. On the contrary, the graduate student learns the location, size, fat and thin of the rabbit from the supervisor, and uses the rabbit fighting skills learned from the supervisor to capture a rabbit (that is, to finish **).
Some people have derived the "rabbit theory" of the difference between undergraduates, master's students, doctoral students, and postdoctoral students, which is attached as follows:
Undergraduates: Learn Xi pick up "dead" rabbits. The knowledge learned in undergraduate and previous studies is knowledge that has been discovered by others and has been repeatedly verified, which is fixed and stable, and belongs to the "dead rabbit". Xi training at this stage is just learning to find a more convenient path to get back the "rabbit" that has died there.
Master's student: Learn to Xi to fight a live rabbit running in the field of vision. This rabbit is in **?You need a mentor to point you out, or you need the tutor and the student to work together to determine their location. The instructor should also tell the students the ability to aim and shoot the rabbit while "pointing at the rabbit". Master's students need to follow the methods and techniques they have learned from their supervisors to kill the rabbit that is still in the activity, and then use the methods they have already used to capture the rabbit.
Ph.D. student: Learn to Xi to hunt a live rabbit that you can't see. At this time, the rabbit is also alive, but it may not be running in your field of vision, but in the woods - the instructor can confirm that the rabbit must be there, but you need to get the rabbit out of the woods to determine whether it is worth hunting, and then use more advanced hunting techniques to shoot and use the original method to take the rabbit in your hand.
Postdoctoral stage: At this time, the supervisor is called the co-supervisor, and he will work with the postdoc to determine whether to find rabbits, at this time may be faced with a different forest, and it is necessary to discuss together to determine whether it is necessary to stop here, and repeat the above process.
There is a continuity of knowledge at the graduate and undergraduate levels, but in two different ways.
At the undergraduate level, I mainly read books, listen to teachers in class, do homework after class, and do experiments according to the teacher's arrangement. However, at the graduate level, listening to lectures only takes up very little time, and most of the time you need to read a lot of literature, understand your professional field, and then find problems, solve problems by doing experiments, and then form your own **.
When I actually went to graduate school, I found that graduate students rarely read books directly, but looked up literature. Because it is a very long process to assemble and integrate, publish and print books, and many of the materials in the books are no longer up to date. However, the literature in cutting-edge journals records many of the latest research methods and experimental results, and graduate students can find breakthroughs in their own research directions by reading these cutting-edge issues.
Master's degree and bachelor's degree are not only different in degree, but also in the hard work and sweat required. The reason why many positions are more inclined to master's degree students is because they have experienced rigorous scientific research training in the course of their studies, have a stronger ability to study hard, and will find and solve problems.
For some very good enterprises, or some jobs in the system, the requirements for academic qualifications are high, and this high level is not only the difference between the words "undergraduate" and "master", but also a kind of proof that there is a stronger research ability because of a better academic degree.
Compared with before, it seems that the words "graduate students" are not as "valuable" as before, but the proportion of graduate students in the current population is still a small part. And Junjun always believes that when more and more people go to graduate school, it is not the depreciation of graduate students, but the improvement of the overall quality of the people you meet.
I hope that those who have already studied for graduate school and are preparing for graduate school will no longer be confused. Come on!
