Graduate application hotspots change.

In our country, due to the continuous improvement of the level of education in our country, it has become a very common phenomenon to take a master's degree test. In recent years, majors such as medicine, education, literature, and engineering have become popular majors for graduates. However, in recent years, there has been a significant increase in the number of admissions for economics majors, ranging from 10 to 20 percent. This means that the educational results achieved during the university period no longer have the "gold content" and "value" that they used to have. In order to improve their academic level and improve their competitiveness, many students will choose to go to graduate school.

Enrollment expansion: The emergence of postgraduate entrance examination fever is affected by many factors. On the other hand, with the continuous improvement of the high level of education, more and more college graduates realize that they are not qualified for the job by relying on a bachelor's degree alone. At the graduate level, due to the improvement of its professional level, it can carry out deeper theoretical research and professional skills Xi, so that it can achieve greater development in its career.

Comparison of the proportion of university graduates applying for admission.

Judging from the latest data, the number of applicants for the class of 2024 is far from what is expected. Compared to the projected figures, there were 30,000 more graduates last year than this year. This is a new phenomenon in the training of graduate students in China, and it also shows that the competition for graduate students is not fierce.

Extension: The reason why the previous batch of graduates chose to go to graduate school is because there are a variety of reasons. First of all, many fresh graduates will go to a master's degree after a certain amount of work and realize that they want to have more room for development in their careers. In graduate education, the school's Xi environment and resources are more sufficient, past graduates can get more opportunities to do academics, and those who have higher requirements for their majors can achieve their goals through postgraduate examinations.

Enrollment of master's degree students and its causes.

In recent years, there have been some ups and downs in the enrollment of master's students in China. According to the data, the number of applicants for the 2023 master's degree graduates is 4.57 million, and the total number of applications for the 2024 academic year will be about 4.21 million, a year-on-year decrease of 2%. This decline raises doubts about whether there will be a policy of curtailment in master's education.

Expansion: The change in the number of students applying for a master's degree is multifaceted. First of all, due to the opening of the labor market, the career choices of college graduates show a trend of diversification, which also reduces the pursuit of college by some college students. Secondly, in the case of the popularity of master's degrees and fierce competition, the pressure of postgraduate entrance examination is increasing, and some candidates give up the postgraduate entrance examination in order to enhance their competitiveness, or choose other ways of studying Xi in order to improve their competitiveness. In addition, some universities have also made adjustments in graduate admissions, and some have begun to shrink their enrollment to ensure the quality of education and improve the efficiency of the use of educational resources.

Competition between master's graduates and university graduates.

This is a big challenge in terms of the number of students graduating from college. Recent statistics suggest that the class of 2023 will have 10.59 million college graduates, compared to just 4.3 million college graduates, while the previous class had about 30,000 more flexible workers than last year. This puts the new students in the face of greater competition.

Extension: In the process of postgraduate entrance examination, there is a lot of competitive pressure on new students compared with previous years. College freshmen face all kinds of pressures from undergraduates, independent admissions, and push-off students. Most of the previous graduates are people who have worked in the society for a period of time, they have more energy to prepare for the graduate school entrance examination, plus they have richer work experience and social background, which gives them some advantages in the college entrance examination. Therefore, for new students, when resuming Xi, they must reasonably arrange their study and Xi plans, fully realize the major they want, so as to improve their competitiveness.

"Involution" problems and countermeasures in graduate Xi.

In recent years, there has been a gradual involution trend in the graduate education market. Although the number of students going to graduate school will not continue to grow, there is still a lot of pressure to go to graduate school. In this context, many college freshmen have signed up for master's degrees to enhance their employment competitiveness.

Expansion: In order to overcome the phenomenon of "involution" at the master's level, it must be carried out from multiple perspectives. First of all, it is necessary to strengthen the employment guidance work of college students, so that college students can proceed from their own interests and carry out scientific career design. Second, schools and relevant departments should increase investment in educational resources, improve the quality of education, and break the situation of unbalanced resources, unbalanced opportunities, and unbalanced quality. At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to the comprehensive and comprehensive training of college students, so that they will have a strong hands-on and creative spirit, so as to meet the needs of social development in the future.

Induction and reflection.

From the above analysis, it can be seen that the change in the number of graduate school applications and the change in the competitive pressure of the job market are affected by many factors. The number of graduates in 2024 is 30,000 more than in previous years, and overall it still faces competition, and it faces the problem of "involution" of master's degrees.

From my point of view, whether or not to go to graduate school during graduate school depends on your hobbies and future development plans. You can't blindly chase a diploma, you must start from your own career positioning and development prospects. In addition, when resuming Xi, it is necessary to have a scientific re-Xi plan and do a good job of adequate re-Xi in order to obtain a higher score in the college entrance examination. The main thing is to have a good attitude, have confidence in your own strength, and not be bothered by the pressure of competition. Whether you are going to graduate school or looking for a job, you have to make the right decisions based on your actual situation and strive to achieve your goals.
