Friends who are going to graduate school, today the senior sister has sorted out the very important qualities that you need to have, and the success rate will be higher with these qualities!
1. Have a goal.
The positioning of the major of the target institution largely determines the final victory or defeat of the examination. A considerable number of the students who failed the list failed because the original college major positioning was too high, or it did not meet the actual situation of the candidates, resulting in failure. In addition, among the master's students admitted every year, some students could have gone to higher-level colleges and universities, but due to unreasonable application goals, it eventually led to a great waste of talents.
For this reason, it is recommended that you take into account your own interests and social development prospects and career development prospects when choosing a major. If you are not enthusiastic about your major, or even extremely dislike, then you have a much better chance of being admitted to your major. When choosing a target university, the most important thing is not to see whether the target institution is famous enough, but whether the major you are applying for is strong in this school and whether the discipline construction is valued by the school. From a practical point of view, it is necessary to choose a school with a relatively large grasp according to your own strength.
2. Have confidence.
Many people fail in graduate school not because they are not strong enough, not because they don't work hard, but because they don't have confidence and can't believe that they succeed. It's not that you don't have confidence because you can't do it, but because you don't have faith, you can't do it.
It is not only a test of candidates' knowledge mastery, but also a test of willpower, perseverance, psychological quality and other aspects. Confidence is the strength to move forward in graduate school.
Remind everyone not to be afraid of the whole time, or to be intimidated by the huge team of graduate school entrance examinations. Remind everyone to understand that the lovely thing about graduate school entrance examination revision is that it will make you become strong, decisive, and confident in a subtle way, so that you can never give up at any time and under any circumstances. To take the postgraduate entrance examination, you must have a firm determination, prepare for the exam wholeheartedly, and never give up.
3. Have a plan.
Everything is foreseen, and if it is not prepared, it is wasted, that is, things must be planned. Every student will make a review plan after deciding to take the postgraduate examination, just imagine, a candidate with a weak English foundation, if his summer plan is to achieve 80 points in the past English questions, then his task is very heavy, once he fails to meet the requirements, the later plan will become empty words, and his confidence is also very hit, so that he doubts himself, and the probability of giving up the postgraduate examination will be greatly increased.
Therefore, the plan must be suitable for you, practical, and a tool that can really help you plan your revision. Everyone first understands their basic situation, can identify the basic knowledge of candidates according to the real questions, and then formulate a review plan suitable for them, which is not only helpful for candidates to effectively implement the plan, but also has certain benefits for increasing candidates' confidence in review.
4. There is a good way.
It is important to pay attention to the review of the postgraduate entrance examination, and the methods and skills are very important. Postgraduate examination review generally takes multiple rounds of review. The method can usually be broken down into three stages.
The first round from January to May is the foundation stage, which is not suitable for high-intensity review, mainly to read through the textbooks or handouts, and have a comprehensive and complete understanding of the subjects examined.
The second round from June to September, in order to strengthen the knowledge points at the level of laying a good foundation, the review intensity of this stage should be higher than that of the first round
The third round from October to December is the sprint stage, which is a process of re-remembering and understanding the key and difficult points, and learning to use the memorized knowledge points to analyze and solve problems.
The postgraduate examination should be relaxed and moderate, which is not only conducive to maintaining the capital of the revolution, but also is the scientific way and the best realm for the postgraduate examination.
5. There is information.
Missing some necessary information or not being well-informed is a major reason for failing the graduate school entrance examination. During the postgraduate entrance examination, you should pay more attention and communicate more with your comrades-in-arms who are taking the postgraduate examination, and the Mucang postgraduate examination is also a platform to help you improve the postgraduate examination information, through a variety of ways to ask the seniors who have taken the major to ask for postgraduate examination experience, learn some lessons, ask precautions, and even get some "inside information".
If you understand the preferences of professional teachers, it is possible to take his lectures, and then analyze the past past questions, and generally draw some conclusions. At the same time, it is recommended that you pay more attention to the forums of your chosen school on the Internet. There is a lot of information about the postgraduate entrance examination of this school or major in the forum, and there are also many people who share their postgraduate examination experience, past exam questions or new admissions information in the forum. In this way, we can be aware of it.
The campus network of the target institution will publish important information such as the enrollment brochure, major catalog, enrollment number, enrollment policy, etc., and some institutions will even publish the acceptance rate, which candidates should make full use of.
6. Have a sense of urgency.
Nowadays, many students start preparing for graduate school entrance examinations a year or more in advance, although it seems that the preparation time is long, but the time to actually start reviewing is much later. The main thing is that I feel that there is enough time and I am not in a hurry.
When it came to the summer, I felt that I was going to start reviewing, but as soon as the holiday was over, I felt that it was not too late to start school, so I put it off again and again, and there was very little time to really put my heart into review. This is a problem that many students are prone to, and the solution is to increase the sense of urgency, tomorrow after tomorrow, tomorrow is so much, from now on, seize every minute and every second!
7. Be assertive.
Many students often pay attention to the experience of their predecessors, and always want to find some so-called skills and shortcuts from here. It cannot be completely denied, but there is also a scale for borrowing, and it cannot be blindly copied and copied, and no one person's experience can be completely applied to another person. Following the experience and progress of others disrupts one's normal study plan, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Similarly, for review materials, since there are many postgraduate examination materials on the market, and there are many worthy of reference, at this time, you need to be selective to buy and study, and you can't think that this or that is also useful. Buying too many reference books is not only a waste of money, but also a psychological burden on yourself. If the quality of the book is not high, it will waste time and affect the idea of doing the question, which will do more harm than good.
Therefore, when receiving this information, you must be assertive and clear about what is really useful and suitable for you.
8. Make a review plan that suits you.
First of all, according to your actual situation, you should find your own time and energy to devote to the rhythm of revision, and formulate a review plan that meets your own requirements.
The time cycle for postgraduate examination review is very long, nearly more than a year, if you want to get a good result, it is impossible to achieve it overnight, you must allocate time and energy reasonably, find your own pace and rhythm, in order to be at ease.
Moreover, while formulating the plan, it is also necessary to implement the plan, and the content of the tasks set forth today must be implemented. Perseverance is the only way to get closer to success. Otherwise, planning too much and doing too little is tantamount to doing work in vain.
9. Learn to take notes.
As the saying goes, a good memory is not as good as a bad pen, in the process of reading and reviewing, you must learn to mark and write down some difficult knowledge points that you don't understand. Some key knowledge points should be learned to take notes. Taking notes not only helps you improve your concentration, but it also makes your thinking clearer and more intuitive.
10. Try to combine recall with repeated memory.
"Try to recall", that is, when reviewing and consolidating what you have learned, you should not read the textbook or notes, but recall;After recalling, it is compared with textbooks and notes to check and fill in the gaps.
When you have memorized some of the knowledge points, close the book and go through the content you just remembered in your mind. If you can't recall it, re-recognize this part of the content. It could also be when you're out and about, when you're out waiting, or when you're going to the bathroom—think of a few questions about what you've just memorized, and then answer them in memory. If you can't answer the question, you should also read the book or write it down immediately.
11. Reasonably allocate the review content and use cross-review.
Studies have shown that the more similar the content, the more interfering it will be. And because it takes too long to review a subject, it is easy to get bored. Therefore, when revising, different subjects should be cross-reviewed, and if the arts and sciences can be cross-reviewed, the effect will be better.
Cross-revision is beneficial to improve the efficiency of revision, and scientific studies have shown that similar content is very interfering with each other. If you only review one subject for a long time, it will inevitably bring burnout to yourself and affect the effectiveness of revision. Therefore, it is necessary to learn to allocate the review content reasonably and use cross-review.
12. Review four to: heart, mouth, eyes, and hands.
Scientific studies have shown that people can remember 15% of the information they get from hearing, and they can remember 25% of the information they get from their vision, and the combined effect of the two can reach 65%.
In fact, in the final analysis, it is to let us not have selfish thoughts in the review process, devote all our physical and mental energy to the postgraduate examination review process, and prepare for the postgraduate examination wholeheartedly
13. Construct your own knowledge framework.
The postgraduate entrance examination involves a lot of knowledge points, and in order to achieve more and not chaotic, it is necessary to build your own knowledge framework system.
In the process of review, we should not be confined to a single knowledge point, but put ourselves in a more macro perspective to overlook these knowledge points to be reviewed, and have a good idea of the internal connection between each knowledge point. Therefore, we should not let the fragmented knowledge points trap our minds, but organize these knowledge points to form a knowledge framework system.
14. Regularly reflect on the effect of postgraduate examination review.
The graduate school entrance examination is a protracted battle, so after reviewing for a period of time, you should regularly reflect critically on your review effect to see what you didn't do well and what are the reasons for not doing wellReflecting on the problems you encounter during the revision process and actively addressing the factors that hinder your ultimate success will allow you to keep improving.
