In theory, all postgraduate majors that can be applied for are optional, but considering the characteristics of the subject, it is generally recommended to choose liberal arts majors. However, there are many liberal arts majors. Generally speaking, it is only recommended to choose majors where English can become a professional and academic advantage, such as law, journalism, business, trade, finance, Chinese international education, diplomacy and so on.
The advantage of interdisciplinary examination and research for English majors is that they can engage in international related business in the future and become international talents or research talents in specific industries.
How to choose the postgraduate entrance examination for English majors?
Need to consider career interests and learning interests. Professional interests are the most important. What major to choose will affect employment. It must be your favorite industry, and you won't be disappointed after graduation. Non-utilitarian interest in learning helps to complete the master's degree, but if it doesn't match the professional interest, you will be disappointed when you graduate.
In addition, we should consider the difficulty and cost of preparing for the exam. To learn this major well, you can cross it or not. If this major is not good, it is recommended to cross it. If you cross majors, the cost of postgraduate entrance examination is higher, because professional courses need counseling. If a major who applies for a cross-major exam takes mathematics (such as finance and trade), the tuition fee will increase. Therefore, from the point of view of cost and difficulty, it is suggested to choose a major that does not take math exams across majors.
But all the principles are not absolute truths. If you particularly like a major, you can ignore the difficulty of preparing for the exam, because increasing the investment in counseling can solve the difficulty problem. For example, if you don't learn English well, you can continue to take this major and strengthen the counseling of foreign languages and professional courses. Cross-disciplinary examination and research, mathematics tutoring one year in advance, and other subjects to strengthen counseling.
To sum up, the choice of postgraduate entrance examination direction depends on the balance of various factors: employment, prospects, difficulty and cost. If the career prospects meet expectations, it is worthwhile to face difficulties. If the preparation cost is acceptable, the difficulties can be solved through counseling.
