Introduction: The number of applicants for the 2024 graduate exam is at an all-time low in nearly eight years, which may suggest that today's college students are more focused on finding a decent job than just pursuing academic upgrades. They are worried about the depreciation of their academic qualifications, and they are worried that the salary package after graduating from graduate school is not as good as that of undergraduate graduates. As a result, more and more students are deciding to take the civil service exam to get a stable job. In addition, graduate students are worried about graduating smoothly because the current supervisor requirements are more stringent, and students must achieve excellent grades and be recognized by their supervisors. Some students are not good at communicating, so communicating with their tutors becomes their biggest concern. However, many tutors on college campuses are young and easy to mingle with students, so some college students posted chat records with tutors, which became the object of ridicule by netizens, and the style of painting gradually deviated. For example, in a chat between a student and a tutor, the tutor replies "I've been there", which is a normal expression, but it feels a little ambiguous. There was also a student who caught a cold, but the tutor said, "I'm afraid that you will infect everyone, so I won't use it", which makes people feel heartbroken. These chat logs sparked laughter and comments from netizens. Therefore, the 2024 postgraduate examinations are about to take place, and students should cherish this opportunity and not give up on the exams.
The number of applicants for the 2024 graduate examination has reached a record low in nearly eight years, which reflects the changing perception of employment among college students. Students realise that simply pursuing academic qualifications does not guarantee employment and future development. They are worried about the depreciation of their academic qualifications and that they will not be able to get the job prospects they want even if they get a graduate degree. At the same time, they are also worried about missing out on the best employment opportunities, and they are worried that the salary package after graduating from graduate school is not as good as that of a bachelor's degree. Therefore, after all considerations, many students decide to give up the postgraduate entrance examination and choose to apply for the civil service examination or the examination editor instead to get a stable job and a better salary.
In fact, this change in perception is reflected throughout society. Many traditional academic qualifications, especially postgraduate qualifications, are no longer golden signs, and a large number of graduate graduates face employment problems. On the contrary, civil service and establishment jobs are more concerned by students because of their high stability and benefits. This also proves from the side that college students actually pay more attention to employment, rather than simply chasing the upgrade of academic qualifications.
For students who are pursuing a graduate degree, a good tutor can bring them a wealth of knowledge and a relaxed and enjoyable experience of learning. Therefore, before the interview, many students will research their supervisor before applying for graduate school to understand their research direction and personal style to determine whether it is suitable for them.
However, at the graduate level, communication with supervisors becomes one of the biggest concerns for students. Some students are not good at communicating with people and are worried about communicating with their instructors. But nowadays, many universities and colleges have younger tutors, and it is easier to get along with students. Therefore, some college students posted their chat records with their tutors, which became the object of ridicule by netizens, and the painting style gradually deviated.
Recently, some chat records between students and tutors have appeared on the Internet, which has become a hot topic, and has been ridiculed by netizens as "love and kill". The style of these chats is gradually off, which is very impressive.
First of all, a student asked the tutor if he would be in the office on weekends in the chat, and the tutor replied "I've been there", which is no problem under normal circumstances, but when taken out alone, people can't help but feel that the style of painting is gradually deviating. Such an answer seems to imply that the relationship between the tutor and the student is somewhat "ambiguous".
Secondly, another student was unable to attend the regular meeting due to illness, and the tutor said in the chat, "I'm afraid that you will infect everyone, so I won't use it." This sentence is a bit heart-wrenching for students, reminiscent of the relationship between "pro-mentors", which is really "love and kill each other". Such a humorous and authentic chat record sparked laughter and comments from netizens.
Although there are some communication barriers at the graduate level, for students who are pursuing a graduate degree, if they can meet a good mentor, they will be able to gain more useful knowledge and the learning process will be easier and more enjoyable. Therefore, before choosing a supervisor, students will understand the research direction and personal style of the supervisor in advance to ensure that it matches their expectations.
However, before the interview, students must pass a written test before they can proceed to the interview session. With just over a month to go until the 2024 graduate exam revision, students should make the most of this time and work hard to improve their grades. Usually in the last month of graduate school preparation, most students focus on political subjects. If you want to do well in the political exam, the method is actually very simple, memorize more, understand more, and memorize more. Of course, students in other subjects can also make appropriate supplementary learning, especially some types of questions that are often wrong, and only through repeated practice can they avoid losing marks in the exam.
As a graduate student who has already registered and paid the fee, you must not give up the exam easily. Every year, many students choose to abandon the exam, resulting in a gap between the actual number of applicants and the final number of people who take the exam. As long as you take the exam, you have already surpassed many candidates, and you should work hard to achieve your goals regardless of the final result. At this stage, students should give their all, cherish this opportunity, and not give up easily. Whether you choose to pursue graduate school or choose another career path, stick to your efforts and pursuits to build a solid foundation for your future.
Finally, everyone may have a different opinion on this matter. Some may agree that students are more focused on finding a stable job than just pursuing academic qualifications. There may also be people who are amused or ridiculed about the chat history between the student and the tutor, but at the same time, they should also reflect on the communication between the tutor and the student. In any case, everyone should make a decision that suits them based on their circumstances and goals when faced with a choice.
