The famous 985 university is rarely "cold", and the number of applicants for postgraduate entrance examination has plummeted by 6,000
Popular"The number of applicants for postgraduate entrance examinations in colleges and universities is usually quite large, taking Sichuan University as an example, the number of applicants for postgraduate examinations in the school has exceeded 40,000 for three consecutive years.
When it comes to taking the postgraduate examination, many students think that as long as they can be admitted, they don't care too much about which university they are admitted to, after all, as long as they get a graduate diploma, the value must be higher than that of an undergraduate diploma.
However, there are some students who are more realistic, they think that if they don't choose a prestigious school for graduate school, it is like working hard for a long time but failing to get the desired gold content. Therefore, in the past few years, 985 colleges and universities have been the target of graduate students.
Why is such a 985 university no longer attractive?In the new year, the number of applicants for the postgraduate entrance examination**.
The difficulty of the postgraduate entrance examination in 985 colleges and universities is quite large, but this does not stop the enthusiasm of students to sign up. For example, well-known universities such as Sichuan University and Huazhong University of Science and Technology have thousands of students applying for the exam every year.
However, it is not necessarily a good thing for students to concentrate on the exam, as it also increases the level of competition. In some well-known universities, in order to successfully get admitted to graduate school, one student must outperform more than 100 competitors.
Maybe it's because many ordinary students realize the gap between themselves and 985 universities, or maybe they have a new choice. After the graduate school registration data of major 985 colleges and universities were made public this year, there was an unexpected situation.
Compared with last year, the number of applicants at China Agricultural University has dropped by 6,000, which is a bit inadequate compared to the outstanding performance of other 985 universities.
In comparison, the number of applicants at Chinese University is 27,604, Xiamen University's is 29,067, and China Agricultural University has only 13,000 applicants, which is a rare cold field.
Why is that?Could it be that in the hearts of this post-00s graduate students, the old famous schools and 985 colleges and universities are no longer attractive?Let's analyze it from a few angles.
China Agricultural University has advantages in strength and geographical location, but it has an obvious weakness.
From the perspective of the prestige of the school, China Agricultural University is considered to be one of the best agricultural and forestry universities in China. Over the past 100 years, the school has attracted many students interested in agriculture.
Although agriculture and forestry majors may not be as popular as finance and medicine, even so, China Agricultural University still ranks 30th in the national ranking of comprehensive strength of universities, an enviable achievement.
In addition to its excellent teaching strength, the school has climbed to the top of scientific innovation in professional training, and can be called a leader in the field of innovation. Compared with Northwest A&F University, which is also a 985 Project Agriculture and Forestry University, China Agricultural University has a better geographical location.
Theoretically, why would such a unique geographical location and employment environment suddenly lose the favor of students?What's more, the school's admission score line for agricultural postgraduate entrance examination is the lowest grade in the national line all year round, and it is relatively easy to take the postgraduate entrance examination.
However, we cannot ignore the weakness of this university, namely its attributes as an agriculture and forestry university. With the continuous development of science and technology, many students have misunderstood the agricultural major, believing that agriculture is more difficult and the future employment prospects are not optimistic.
Compared with other popular finance majors, agricultural students lack high-end employment experience;The low salary level of agricultural students compared to the highly sought-after medical profession, and the fact that agronomy is exposed to the actual operation of the field, including wind and sun exposure and harsh environments, are quite realistic factors.
Because of this, many students are reluctant to choose an agronomy major, even if the cut-off score is relatively low. After all, they are responsible for their future careers, and agronomy majors are far less attractive than popular majors in graduate school.
The rare cold phenomenon of China Agricultural University also reflects the preference of contemporary college students for academic and employment directions, and it is difficult for us to evaluate it as a bystander.
The number of applicants for postgraduate entrance examination in 985 colleges and universities has decreased significantly in the current year, which has attracted a lot of attention. Although there are still many candidates who apply for prestigious universities, some 985 colleges and universities with unpopular majors are relatively bleak, forming a contrast between joy and worry.
Some students believe that the number of graduate students in 985 University will decrease, the competition will inevitably decrease, and the difficulty of the graduate school entrance examination will be significantly reduced, which is a rare opportunity to go ashore.
However, the reality is not so rosy. 985 colleges and universities are still a gathering place for excellent students, the level of students competing with you has not dropped significantly, and the opportunities to find 985 universities that can be picked up are relatively limited, and most of them are still quite difficult.
Students should keep in mind the basic principle of choosing more than hard work, and have a reasonable understanding of their own level.
Even if the strength fails to reach the level of 985 universities, it does not mean that the postgraduate entrance examination has lost its meaning. There are not a small number of people who have been successfully admitted to the graduate school of double non-African universities, and each person's choice factors are different, so there is no need to compare them with each other.
