Compared with the postgraduate examination of this major, there are indeed more challenges and precautions, and the following are some important points:
1.*Choose the right major**:
Candidates first need to have an in-depth understanding of the characteristics, development prospects and job market of the major to be cross-examined, and confirm whether the major is truly in line with their interests, abilities and long-term plans.
2.*Professional Course Preparation**:
Interdisciplinary candidates need to study on their own or audit the core courses of the interdisciplinary major in advance to make up for the gaps in professional knowledge that they have not been exposed to at the undergraduate level, because the re-examination often conducts an in-depth examination of the professional foundation.
3.*Exam subject understanding**:
Understand the setting of the preliminary examination subjects of the cross-examination major, and there may be examination subjects that are different from those of the major, such as professional course 1 and professional course 2, which need to be prepared in a targeted manner.
4.*Enrollment Policy Grasp**:
Check the enrollment brochure of the target institution and major to clarify whether there are any special restrictions on cross-major application, such as the threshold for accepting cross-examination, additional examination requirements, etc.
5.*Contact Tutor**:
If you have the opportunity, you can try to establish contact with the supervisor of the intended major in advance to understand their research direction and team atmosphere, which is very important for the later re-examination and the selection of supervisors.
6.*Data Collection & Learning Methods**:
Actively collect textbooks, bibliographies, past papers and other materials of cross-examination majors, formulate detailed learning plans, and adopt effective learning methods to quickly improve professional quality.
7.*Mental Preparation**:
Interprofessional means entering a completely new field of study, and candidates need to be mentally prepared to deal with the frustrations that may arise during the learning process, and to maintain a positive attitude and determination.
8.*Time Allocation & Planning**:
Considering the complexity of cross-professional exam preparation, it is necessary to allocate the review time of each subject reasonably, especially to ensure the learning input of professional courses, and at the same time ensure the stability of the results of public courses.
9.*Internship or Practical Experience**:
If possible, accumulating internship or practical experience related to the target profession will be of great help in demonstrating understanding and adaptability to the field when re-examining.
10.*Improve overall quality**:
Improving one's comprehensive ability, such as expression and communication, problem solving, innovative thinking, etc., are all aspects that the re-examination interview committee may focus on.
To sum up, the interdisciplinary postgraduate examination not only needs to overcome the barriers of professional knowledge, but also needs to comprehensively improve its competitiveness to ensure that it stands out among many candidates. Therefore, adequate preliminary research, careful study plan, unremitting efforts, and good psychological adjustment are all essential preparations.
