The preliminary examination of the 2024 National Master's Admission Examination will officially start on the morning of December 23. On that day, millions of candidates from all over the country stepped into the examination room one after another, striving for their future. News reporters from all over the country reported that on the eve of the graduate school entrance examination, the library was originally full of books, but now empty. The graduate students who used to write hard in their seats and memorize late at night have already packed their things and prepared for the exam. From lively to deserted, it is just a momentary change. In recent years, more and more students have chosen to take the Graduate Record Exam, resulting in a rising number of applicants. According to statistics from the Ministry of Education, the number of applicants for postgraduate entrance examinations in 2021 and 2022 was 3.77 million and 4.57 million, respectively, and in 2023, it hit a record high of 4.74 million. However, in 2024, the number of applicants for graduate school has declined, with a decrease of 360,000 from the previous year, the first decline in three years.
For the preliminary examination of postgraduate politics, what rushed to the hot search list on Weibo after the exam was a simple topic about postgraduate politics. Many of the comments bluntly said that the questions were simple, saying that the afternoon exams were already stable. However, some netizens said that there are many pitfalls and ambiguous answers in the answers and multiple-choice questions, and the answers cannot be determined at a glance. At the same time, simplicity and the ability to answer correctly are two different things and should not be confused. In addition, some netizens mentioned that the preliminary examination for postgraduate politics seems simple, but it is actually a means of interference, aiming to disturb the mentality of candidates and make people mistakenly think that they are not performing well, thus affecting the mentality of other candidates. In any case, the postgraduate candidates have had a tense and stressful morning exam. I hope that everyone will not have a guided discussion outside the venue, and do not let the outside influence affect their own performance. I hope that the candidates can maintain a good attitude and continue to work hard. After all, you have put in a lot of hard work and sweat, and it will not be worth it to give up. I sincerely wish every candidate who takes the postgraduate examination a safe and smooth journey to the examination, and give their best performance in the examination and achieve excellent results!May all your wishes come true and all your dreams come true!Finally, I wish all candidates for the postgraduate examination once again to continue to work hard in the afternoon without external interference, and to be sure to succeed!
In the past few years, the number of applicants for postgraduate entrance examination has shown a continuous upward trend. However, the number of applicants for graduate school in 2024 has dropped for the first time, with a decrease of 360,000 compared to the previous year. This phenomenon has aroused people's attention and thinking: why is the number of applicants for graduate school students declining?Is there any reason behind it?
First of all, the reason for the decline in the number of applicants for graduate school may be due to changes in the employment situation. As the job market continues to expand, some undergraduate graduates choose to go straight into employment rather than further study, which has led to a decrease in the number of applicants for graduate school. In addition, in recent years, with the popularization and development of higher education, more and more undergraduates choose to continue their master's degree studies instead of entering graduate school through graduate school. This is also a factor in the decline in the number of applicants for graduate school.
Secondly, economic pressure is also one of the factors affecting the number of applicants for graduate school. Postgraduate entrance examinations require certain financial support, including registration fees, training fees, living expenses, etc. With the intensification of social competition and the rising cost of living, some families may not be able to afford the financial pressure of going to graduate school, so they choose not to take the graduate school entrance examination. In addition, some students may think that joining the workforce will allow them to earn money faster and live independently, and graduate school entrance examination may delay their time to achieving financial independence.
Finally, psychological stress may also be one of the reasons for the decline in the number of applicants for graduate school. The postgraduate entrance examination is a difficult and competitive examination that requires a lot of time and effort from candidates. Some students may be bored or lack confidence in how difficult it is to go to graduate school, so they choose not to take the entrance examination and seek other paths. In addition, during the graduate school entrance examination process, some students may be affected by negative comments or pressure from those around them, and thus give up their plans to enter the graduate school entrance examination.
To sum up, the reasons for the decline in the number of applicants for graduate school may include changes in the employment situation, economic pressure and psychological pressure. It also reminds us that we should pay more attention to and understand the choices of candidates, and provide them with better support and assistance.
The end of the preliminary examination for postgraduate politics sparked heated discussions among netizens, and related topics quickly appeared on the hot search list on Weibo. Some netizens commented that the preliminary examination for postgraduate politics was simple, and it was even considered that the afternoon exam had achieved stable results for a while. However, there are also some netizens who said that there are many traps and ambiguous answers in the answers and multiple-choice questions, and the answers cannot be determined at a glance. Simplicity and the ability to answer correctly are two different things and should not be confused.
The controversy over whether the preliminary political examination for this postgraduate entrance examination is simple can be understood as different candidates have different feelings about answering questions. Compared with the exam questions of previous years, whether this year's postgraduate political preliminary examination is simplified still needs to be judged according to the specific content of the test questions. In general, the questions in the preliminary examination are based on the scope and requirements of political textbooks in major universities, so as to test the candidates' understanding and application ability of political science theories, ideological methods and related knowledge. Although some people think that the questions are relatively straightforward and simple, in fact, the answers to the questions also require candidates to have a solid foundation and ability in political science, and cannot be taken lightly just because the questions are superficially simple.
In addition, while describing whether the topic is simple or not, it is also necessary to see some factors behind it. For example, whether this year's postgraduate political preliminary examination is simple may be related to the popularity of political science subject knowledge and the focus on political science test points. As an important discipline, political science is often related to current politics and social hotspots, so the popularity and focus of the test center will also change with the changes of the current situation. Therefore, whether the preliminary examination for graduate school politics is simple or not, it is also necessary to take into account this background factor.
In short, it is necessary to consider different factors comprehensively in the controversy over whether the preliminary political examination is simple or not, and respect each candidate's personal feelings about the test questions. Regardless of whether the questions are easy or not, for every candidate, it is necessary to maintain a good mindset and go all out to cope with the exam and perform at their best.
The road to graduate school is undoubtedly full of challenges and pressures, but candidates have overcome many difficulties and obstacles through their own efforts and perseverance. Whether it is hard study during the preparation period or meticulous preparation before the exam, every candidate has put in a lot of effort and sweat.
However, the postgraduate entrance examination is not only a journey of personal struggle, but also needs the support and encouragement of society. As a member of the society, we should convey positive energy and encouragement to the candidates, and send them our most sincere blessings. I hope that every candidate will have a safe and smooth journey to the exam, and give their best performance in the exam and achieve excellent results.
Regardless of whether the preliminary examination for graduate school politics is easy or not, we should encourage candidates to maintain a good attitude and continue to work hard. After all, today's efforts will become tomorrow's gains. No matter what the results of the graduate school entrance examination are, every candidate has already put in a lot of effort and sweat, and it is not worth giving up at this time. Please believe in your own abilities, believe in your efforts, and move forward firmly.
Finally, I sincerely wish all candidates who have taken the postgraduate examination a safe and smooth journey to the examination, perform their best in the examination, and achieve excellent results!May all your wishes come true and all your dreams come true!Come on!
