As we all know, the admission mode of master's degree admissions is mainly composed of two parts: the preliminary examination (the weight is usually between 70% and 50%) and the second examination (the weight is between 30% and 50%). In short, the initial examination is the threshold for screening, while the second examination determines the final success or failure.
Recently, a striking suggestion was put forward: to change the enrollment method for master's degree students to an application system. This suggestion quickly caused heated discussions on the Internet, and many netizens participated in the discussion and expressed their views and opinions.
Master's admissions are recommendedChanged to an application assessment system:
The implementation of the "application-assessment system" for doctoral students has become an inevitable trend, and the postgraduate examination still adopts the assessment method of preliminary examination + re-examination.
Unlike in China, some countries with more developed higher education usually do not adopt this recruitment method of deciding whether to admit or not based on only one test score, so some delegates proposed:"Change the mode of admission examination for master's students to an application review system. ”
Postgraduate education is a high-level talent training model, which is to cultivate innovative research talents and application talents, and should pay attention to the assessment of candidates' comprehensive quality, innovation ability and critical thinking ability. ”
He believes that the current admission method for master's students is relatively simple, although it includes two methods: recruitment and exemption, but in fact, it is mainly dominated by recruitment results. Candidates must pass the preliminary examination before they can enter the second examination, which is too rigid.
The current admissions model focuses too much on test scores and ignores the overall quality of candidates. Admissions should select well-rounded students, but in reality, some candidates lack practical ability and experience despite their high grades in professional courses. At the same time, there are also some candidates who may have performed abnormally in the preliminary examination, and their professional ability may be stronger, but they have lost the opportunity because of the preliminary examination scores.
This one-for-life test model is extremely risky and unfair for candidates. It can overlook the hard work and potential of many people, resulting in admissions results that do not fully reflect the true level of the candidate. Therefore, it is necessary to reform the current enrollment model for master's degree students to evaluate candidates more comprehensively, fairly and impartially.
Success in graduate school seems to be reduced to an equation of "luck + hard work = success".
Whether a candidate will be able to successfully land on shore depends largely on the target institution they choose. If they are lucky enough, have a smaller number of applicants, or have an earlier retest, they will have a better chance of going ashore.
However, if the candidate is unlucky and chooses an institution with a large number of applicants, and the re-examination time is late, then their choice when it comes to adjustment will be greatly reduced, and they may even miss out on their graduate career.
However, at present, the postgraduate entrance examination is still mainly based on the examination, and students who are preparing for the postgraduate examination still need to collect more information, after all, they can only choose one voluntary college to apply for the examination, and they should pay attention to avoid "stepping on thunder".
Experts recommend canceling the retest:
Obviously, both the initial and re-examination play a vital role in determining whether the candidate can successfully go ashore. Similarly, some delegates have proposed that the preliminary examination be abolished, while some experts have suggested that the re-examination of the postgraduate examination should be abolished.
Especially in the previous period when it was inconvenient to conduct offline re-examinations due to various restrictions, some experts have suggested that the results of the preliminary examination should be used as the only criterion for admission, so as to cancel the re-examination link. Behind this suggestion is the hope of simplifying the admissions process, reducing the pressure of candidates to take the test, and paying more attention to the academic performance of candidates.
As soon as the remarks came out, they immediately aroused heated discussions among many students and parents. Previously, a blogger on the Internet did a small surveyMore than half of them support the "cancellation of the postgraduate entrance examination"!
Many students on the Internet are in favor of canceling the retest, saying that it is difficult to ensure the fairness of the retest, of course, there is no lack of opposition, and the discussion in the comment area is also very hot.
Official Response:Disagree"Postgraduate Entrance Examination":
The people** expressed their views on this issue:
It was not in favor of abolishing the re-examination part of the postgraduate examination. The article points out that if the re-examination is canceled and only the assessment in the form of written answers remains, then the selection of graduate students will not be much different from the high school entrance examination and the college entrance examination, which is contrary to the original intention of graduate students to select talents.
The preliminary examination for graduate students mainly focuses on the examination of the candidate's professional knowledge, however, it does not comprehensively assess the candidate's thinking and thinking ability. It is only through face-to-face communication and dialogue that the tutor can get to know the candidate better.
Despite the limited time for the re-examination, with the rich experience and keen observation of the tutors, they are still able to make a preliminary judgment on the relevant abilities of the candidates. Therefore, the re-examination process plays an indispensable role in the selection of graduate students.
In fact, what everyone cares about most is the fairness and impartiality of the re-examination, and if the re-examination process is guaranteed to be fair and credible, then most people still support the re-examination of graduate students.
The fairness of the re-examination is guaranteed, and candidates can concentrate on preparing for the exam, and make sure that they pass the initial examination and stand out after the re-examination as much as possible.
