In the 2023 college entrance examination, a fierce competition has come to an end. In this examination, the civil engineering of the University of Science and Technology Beijing, the civil engineering of Dalian University of Technology, the civil engineering of Sichuan University and other famous universities entered the second round of solicitation of volunteers in Yunnan.
What is surprising and incredible is that as long as you have a score of 485 in science and a provincial ranking of 48,009 or above, you are eligible to apply for these prestigious schools and have the possibility of being admitted.
At the same time, Guangzhou University's investment in Guangdong Province has also attracted widespread attention. The minimum admission score of the civil engineering group in the school's preferred physics class is as low as 453 points, ranking 214608 in the province, and you may be admitted. This figure is not only staggering, but also triggers in-depth thinking about the college entrance examination score line and major choice.
As a major province in the college entrance examination, Henan's situation is also not optimistic. Wuhan University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Lanzhou University, Shandong University and other 985 universities in the civil engineering national special plan, in Henan is also facing the dilemma of recruitment. Many candidates would rather choose not to obey the adjustment than to apply for these majors.
Behind this phenomenon, it reflects the confusion and confusion of the current college entrance examination candidates about the choice of major. While pursuing high grades, they seem to lack a clear understanding of their future career plans. Many candidates are worried that once they choose civil engineering majors, they may face difficulties in finding employment in the future. As a result, they are hesitant to fill in the application and even choose to abandon these seemingly sought-after majors.
In the face of such a dilemma, we need to re-examine the relationship between the college entrance examination system and the choice of majors. On the one hand, colleges and universities should strengthen the publicity and promotion of majors, so that candidates can better understand the characteristics and advantages of different majors.
On the other hand, students and parents should also be more rational when choosing a major, fully considering their own interests and future career plans. Only in this way can we ensure that every candidate can find a suitable major for themselves and lay a solid foundation for future development.
