Today, we will reveal the focus of the tutors in the postgraduate entrance examination.
Many candidates are facing the re-examination for the first time and are often not well prepared. This inadequacy is not due to a lack of effort, but to a possible deviation in the direction of preparation. The more you work in the wrong direction, the easier it is to deviate from your goal of going to graduate school. Let's take a look at the right directions!
Mastery of professional courses.
In the process of the postgraduate entrance examination and re-examination interview, the mastery of the candidates' professional courses is one of the focuses of the judges' tutors.
First of all, the interviewer will be wary of the so-called "test-taking" candidates, who may have achieved good results in the initial examination, but in fact do not have a deep understanding of the professional course, and their knowledge is limited to the superficial content of the textbook.
Secondly, taking into account the learning characteristics of master's students, that is, more in-depth and theoretical research on professional courses, and the learning results at this stage will also lay a solid foundation for candidates to study for doctoral degrees in the future.
Therefore, it is particularly important for candidates to have a comprehensive and in-depth grasp of professional courses. This not only reflects the candidate's systematic understanding and flexible application ability of professional knowledge, but also an important criterion for evaluating whether he or she is competent for higher-level academic research.
Specialized fields of study are well informed.
Many students excel in their professional courses and have a deep understanding of the content of knowledge and unique insights, but these students often lack sufficient understanding of the research field of the major they are applying for.
In fact, each institution has its own characteristics in its own professional research fields, with specific research directions and academic focuses. These characteristic research areas are not only the academic hallmarks of the institution, but also the foundation for students' future study and research.
If students do not have an in-depth understanding of the field of study of the institution they are applying for, they may find it difficult to answer the questions raised by their supervisors during the re-examination interview. This will not only affect the student's interview performance, but may also affect the student's future academic development.
Therefore, when preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination, students should not only have a solid grasp of the professional courses, but also have an in-depth understanding and research of the professional research field of the institution they are applying for, so that they can better show their academic potential and research interests in the interview, so as to improve the pass rate of the interview.
Logical presentation skills.
In the postgraduate entrance examination interview, if you can show an in-depth and detailed understanding of the content of the professional course, it will undoubtedly leave a deep positive impression on the minds of the tutors. And if you can not only be clear and logical when expressing your opinions, then you will not perform well in the interview.
Because in the future study and research, whether it is to make academic reports or write academic **, the ability to express itself logically is particularly important. The strength of logical expression often determines whether we can effectively convey ideas and construct arguments rigorously, which in turn affects the quality and height of research results. Therefore, it is crucial to show excellent logical expression skills in the postgraduate re-examination interview to achieve excellent results.
Mental capacity.
During the re-examination interview, the examiner will sometimes ask difficult questions that are beyond the candidate's knowledge.
This is not to embarrass candidates, but to improve their ability to react and deal with unfamiliar territory.
It has been observed that in the face of this challenge, some candidates will feel anxious and unable to find a suitable answer;
Some candidates are able to gradually calm down and cope with the situation after a short period of nervousness;
Some candidates will choose to make up their answers.
Through these different responses, the examiners are able to understand the candidate's psychological quality and ability to cope with stress to a certain extent.
Because graduate school is a long-term process that requires both patience and perseverance, as well as good mental endurance.
For candidates who are less resilient to stress or tend to be dishonest about dealing with problems, examiners will usually give serious consideration to admission.
Comprehensive English language skills.
The comprehensive ability of English mainly includes four aspects: listening, speaking, reading and writing. During the re-examination interview, the tutors will ask questions in English, let students answer in English, and give students a piece of English material to ask questions after reading, plus a test of candidates' English ability in the written test, so as to fully understand the candidates' mastery of all aspects of English listening, speaking, reading and writing.
In most disciplines, researchers rely mainly on English literature. If you don't have good English skills, it can be said that it is difficult to conduct academic research. Therefore, improving the comprehensive ability of English is very important for the smooth progress of academic research.
The re-examination is a process of comprehensively examining the comprehensive quality of candidates, and I believe that through unremitting efforts and the right direction of preparation, everyone can achieve ideal results in the postgraduate re-examination and move towards the next stage of postgraduate study. I wish you all a smooth re-examination and a bright academic path in the future!
