After you choose a tutor, you will have compulsory courses for one semester, such as politics (Socialism with Chinese characteristics, dialectics), English and specialized courses (I am an engineering student, so I study combinatorial mathematics and computer control). In the second semester, in addition to one or two compulsory courses, there are five or six elective courses selected by your tutor (two or three of them are related to your research direction, and the others are for credits). \x0d\ Courses are no longer as tense as undergraduate courses. There are 1 2 courses every day, most of which are self-taught. Tutors sometimes go on business trips to do projects and hold academic meetings for more than a month. Don't count on your mentor. The courses offered by the school will never keep pace with the times. You should pay attention to the trends of your research direction (look for papers on the website of Beijing Normal University Library and buy books on your research direction). Postgraduate stage is a watershed in life. \x0d\ In the first year of graduate students, they have to attend classes for one year. During this period, self-motivated students will rush out one or two small papers and publish them in core journals. Thesis, like composition, is experienced when you write more, and you will find the doorway when you publish more. Of course, it is also inseparable from the guidance and correction of the tutor. \x0d\ Postgraduate sophomore, no classes. This year belongs to the state of half internship and half study. Tutors with projects or topics will let students be deputies, and seniors in senior three will lead you to get started and improve. Before the seniors leave school, you should learn all the knowledge and skills they taught you. This year is a year of integrating theory with practice. \x0d\ Pay attention to finding a job when you are in graduate school in grade three, and the general tutor and the graduating seniors will help you hook up (this is also the reason why you should have a good relationship with the seniors, who are your contacts). Also, write your graduation thesis as soon as possible. In fact, the tutor will draw up several topics for you when you study for the first time. You should pay attention to collecting and accumulating information and materials when you are in the second year of high school. As long as the preparatory work is done well, the big paper can be finished in one month, and then the tutor will help you correct it. \x0d\ Three years for graduate students is actually very fast, so we should grasp it carefully. \x0d\ Since you are preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination, there is no need to worry about what will happen after passing the exam. The most important thing is to learn the exam subjects well. Here, I'll give you some suggestions: arrange the study time in the order of subjects during the exam, that is, for example, take politics and English in the morning (do English majors still take English? I don't understand), I have professional classes 1 and 2 in the afternoon, so you arrange political and English studies in the morning and professional classes in the afternoon and evening. Most importantly, we should pay attention to our health, keep warm and prevent heatstroke. \x0d\ Persistence is the key, Excellence is the habit. \x0d\ I wish you success in the postgraduate entrance examination.
