1: I was admitted to an unsatisfactory study.
Although the postgraduate entrance examination is to choose their own schools, there are still some people whose grades are not ideal, who are transferred to schools they don't like and lack the courage to do it again. Then they can only choose the school they don't like, and live as graduate students in the school they don't like, and there will definitely be unpleasant emotions caught in their daily life and study.
2. The life of graduate students is not quite the same as expected.
Just as we just finished the college entrance examination, we are full of expectations and longings for college life. However, the reality is quite different, and so is graduate school. Undergraduate life is relatively easy and there are not many courses. After class, we went back to the dormitory, lying in bed, playing games and being free. Real graduate life will not be like this. It may seem boring. Every day is a laboratory, a library, a canteen, and a dormitory. I have to worry about papers when I have a rare rest. The pressure of studying for graduate students is higher than that of studying for HKUST.
Endless experiments
3. interpersonal relationships are not handled well.
Interpersonal relationships in the postgraduate stage are much more difficult to deal with, especially students on the same topic. The relationship between the tutor and himself is the most subtle, and students are afraid of copying their own topics and ideas. Whether you can graduate depends on your tutor. If you have a bad relationship with your tutor because of something, then he may give you a question and work hard. In the eyes of the tutor, we are like a little donkey who evaluates professional titles and works.
4. Confusion about the future.
We all hope to shine on the journey of postgraduate entrance examination and improve our ability in life, but watching others write an sci for three months and a Nature for one year, while we are still worrying about topics and papers, will undermine our self-confidence and feel that we are incapable and will not have the skills and ability to take it out in the future.
As long as we believe that we can clear the clouds, sail straight, set up an unfathomable sea and keep our initial heart, we can turn unhappiness into motivation and we can be extremely happy.
