I am a junior in the 985 Project. After all kinds of confusion and struggle in the last month, I really have a lot of feelings, so I want to find a place to record it and share it with you.
Now that you are in the third year of high school, I want to give you a suggestion. This is a lesson I have learned from my muddled experience in recent years-when choosing a major, you must choose one that suits you.
What is the major that suits you? It's my favorite major, and I'm good at it. Of course, if you have super adaptability and learning ability, and you can get started quickly in any major you choose, then forget me. ) I just chose an unsuitable major and smashed a good card. The following is my history of blood and tears, hoping to give you some inspiration.
I am a science student. In fact, I have always been interested in liberal arts subjects such as history and geography, and my English is also very good. I chose science because I was too tired of politics (unfortunately, I have lived for 20 years and finally realized that my essence is a liberal arts student, but my science level is enough to cope with the knowledge of middle school, and I am not partial to that subject). However, my science scores have always been good (blinded by this phenomenon, thinking that I have the ability to learn college physical chemistry well), and the key science classes have also been ranked in the top 20, but my English scores are not bad when I was in the college entrance examination. In addition, the score of Shenzhen Campus of Guangdong 985 University is relatively low, ranking around 7000 (in retrospect, my comprehensive management should be the lowest among the students admitted in that year, 2650).
Why did you choose this school at that time? I was just too young at that time, and I didn't have any plans for my life after the college entrance examination (except for transforming our small county town in the Pearl River Delta where there is no sense of existence, there is no special ideal, and it seems unrealistic to think about it by myself, which is almost equal to no ideal). Thinking of entering a good university or worrying about work, I listened to the nonsense of "undergraduates look at schools" and entered the most cost-effective university according to the scores at that time. As a result, the first volunteer electronic information was not accepted by the adjustment materials (yes, it is the so-called sinkhole) ... (But to be honest, even if I was admitted to electronic information, I must have studied very hard. After all, I was an engineering student, and I chose the wrong direction from the beginning), especially when I found that my score could go to the Department of Urban and Rural Planning of Chongqing University some time ago, I almost vomited blood. ...
I thought I was a science student after all, so I should be able to cope with college study, right? As a result, I went to college and I exploded. In the first semester, I felt it was difficult to get a high number, which was even more difficult than the conic curve I made before ... and then I failed the first mid-term exam. Fortunately, in the last few minutes of the final exam, I worked out a five-point problem in a flash, which made my score barely reach 1, otherwise I would fail in the first semester. This is just the beginning ... I didn't fail the physics midterm in the second semester, and then the final exam just mentioned that I passed 60 points ... I have no motivation to open those books on mechanical drawing, linear algebra and theoretical mechanics, but I am still a high school student and still have to learn. I was still in class when I was a freshman, doing my homework step by step. It's just that I can't seem to learn anything ... Later, I found that soaking in the library for a few days before the exam could just make my score reach 60-70, so from the next semester of Grade Two, I gave up completely and started to make a salted fish. I seemed to be listening carefully in class, but I didn't hear anything, and then I started playing with my mobile phone. I don't listen to the class at all, and I have no motivation to turn a word. I don't want to study in my spare time at all. Just be a football coach and point out the maze in front of the computer (I opened more than a dozen files in the game football manager 20 19, and the farthest one played in 2045 ...) or go out for a trip (because I am interested in geography, I like to go out and see this beautiful world and several beautiful metropolises near me ...), and all subjects are based on a surprise one or two days before the exam.
I found myself completely uninterested in scientific research. I have been to the laboratory, but I have no interest in understanding and operating those instruments. Our dean once invited me to join his research group to study the principle of ultrasonic gathering salt in brine to a specific position. However, when I was faced with a glass of salt water, I didn't have any other thoughts except drinking it into my stomach ... I paid attention to the official WeChat account of the Department of Human Geography of Sun Yat-sen University before, and I really wanted to cry after reading the research projects done by their undergraduates. These are what I want to do. (Whether I can do it well or not, at least I have a strong desire to do it, instead of looking at a glass of salt water ...) So I watched other people in the dormitory run to the laboratory every day, while I ran outside the school like a stranger, taking every subway line in Shenzhen and Hong Kong (except Maanshan Line and Nandao Line) and most bus lines at bus stops near the school ... So I salted the fish. I also realize that I'm not cut out for engineering, but I never thought about my future after graduation. Because I've been cooking salted fish for too long, I just kept avoiding it, and then I paralyzed myself with graduate school to continue salted fish after graduation. ...
Until recently, I stayed at home during the winter vacation. Because I was bored, I finally began to think about my whereabouts. I took the postgraduate entrance examination. Taking this major in our school is obviously the easiest choice, and I did buy back all the counseling books and start reviewing, but at first I found that I couldn't understand advanced mathematics, and then I thought, I'm not cut out for scientific research in the field of materials at all, and I also rejected doing these experiments. What does it mean for me to take the materials for graduate students besides avoiding employment ... So I looked at the cross-examination again, wanted to take a major that I was interested in, and chose urban and rural planning, but I wanted to take it. So I found someone with a lower threshold, and then I searched everything in the conversation between Zhihu and other seniors, and I couldn't sleep for more than a month. (I am entangled in whether to go abroad to study urban and rural planning. Because of poor GPA and no portfolio, it is difficult to get on top50. ) Finally, I found this ... the pure liberal arts major I am reviewing now.
Then I finally got rid of the salted fish life recently. I have salted fish for so long that I even thought I was a salted fish born willing to fail, and I have lost my learning ability, but I am not. These days, after I joined the liberal arts major, I found the feeling of studying in middle school before, full of motivation, even to the point where my mother asked me to take a break and cook a meal. This period of time is really the most enthusiastic time for me to study since I went to college. Only then did I know that I was unwilling to cook salted fish. I was too salty before. There are two reasons. First, I have my own shortcomings, and my adaptability is not strong. When I met something I didn't like, I didn't choose to force myself to adapt, but chose to escape. I also admit that I am usually not a person who wants to overcome difficulties, and I usually choose to avoid them. Second, I chose a major that was completely unsuitable for me, which made me have no motivation to study at all. Interest is the best teacher, and I finally realized the meaning of this sentence recently. I am really not interested in materials and physical and chemical things. Even if the famous teacher of our school stands on the podium in front of me, I just want to slip the number. And now I'm reading that liberal arts book at home, so I can study all night. If you start with the major you like, are interested in and are good at, will you still have the motivation to learn in recent years? I think so, too. From the performance these days, I can see that I am studying this liberal arts major that I have never been exposed to before, but I can still get interested in it quickly and devote myself to it with fighting spirit.
Really, unless you have strong adaptability and learning ability (that is, you can learn well in the face of things you don't like to learn), you should choose a major that suits you. Don't be like me, you don't know yourself correctly, and liberal arts students have to learn the sinkhole project. I really want to travel back two and a half years ago and slap my naive self at that time. What about your comprehensive score of 2 10? ! Read a translation. Doesn't it smell good? I have had a headache here for so long after two and a half years, and I really want to strangle myself.
Think of it as paying tuition for your youth. It is also a kind of exercise for you to suffer so much when you are young. I hope I can get ashore successfully and get out of this wrong path as soon as possible.
