Postgraduate entrance examination questions for junior college students

First of all, junior college students need two conditions to take the postgraduate entrance examination: first, they must first upgrade from junior college to bachelor's degree, and then take the postgraduate entrance examination. Second, wait until two years after graduation or two years later to take the postgraduate entrance examination with the "equivalent degree" of an undergraduate degree. You are about to meet the second condition, so you can take the postgraduate entrance examination next year.

Let me explain to you the meaning of "equivalent academic qualifications" for undergraduate students. Undergraduate "equivalent education" refers to students who have not obtained a nationally recognized undergraduate degree, but whose professional level can reach or basically reach the level of undergraduate graduates. Candidates who do not hold an undergraduate diploma recognized by the Ministry of Education have equivalent academic qualifications. The Ministry of Education stipulates that candidates with equivalent academic qualifications must have a bachelor's degree when applying for postgraduate examinations. The basic requirements for those with equivalent academic qualifications to apply for a master's degree are: obtain a nationally recognized junior college degree, 2 years after graduation (from graduation from junior college to September 1 of the year of admission as a master's student) or more than 2 years, and achieve the same academic qualifications as undergraduate graduates , and those who meet the specific business requirements set by the admissions unit for candidates based on the unit’s training objectives. This provision is a necessary but not sufficient condition, that is to say: two years (including two years) after graduating from a junior college is the basic condition for applying for a postgraduate examination. On this basis, each admissions unit will also make specific regulations and requirements for equivalent academic abilities.

Under normal circumstances, most admissions units recruit candidates with equivalent academic qualifications. However, there are also some admissions units that do not accept admission to certain majors. This is determined based on the different requirements of different majors for candidates. For example, some colleges and universities do not accept applicants with equivalent academic qualifications for majors such as foreign languages ??and law due to high requirements. This situation is rare after all. Candidates need to understand the specific requirements of the admissions unit in advance.

What are the application requirements for candidates with equivalent academic qualifications

Based on the basic national regulations (more than two years of graduation), each admissions unit will make decisions for candidates with equivalent academic qualifications based on their actual circumstances. own rules. For example, it requires undergraduate course results, English proficiency, published papers or scientific research results, etc. Based on the requirements of each admissions unit for candidates with equivalent academic qualifications, the main aspects are as follows:

1. Pass undergraduate courses. The requirements of each admissions unit for candidates with equivalent academic qualifications are mostly reflected in the requirements for undergraduate courses. In terms of specific requirements, some schools require candidates to pass more than 5 core courses at the undergraduate level, some require more than 8, some require more than 10, and some require candidates to advance to a bachelor's degree in this major and pass all undergraduate courses. Core Curriculum. The reason for this is that the admissions unit considers the requirement for candidates to pass undergraduate courses as an important condition for whether candidates have achieved equivalent academic qualifications. Therefore, it is not just two years after graduating from a major before you can apply. Candidates should understand the specific requirements of the admissions unit in detail and prepare in advance. Before registering, you should go to the school where you are studying for undergraduate studies to obtain a transcript issued by the academic affairs department. Self-study students go to the self-study office to issue a certificate.

2. English must reach undergraduate level. Many candidates with equivalent academic qualifications believe that they need to pass CET-4 in order to take the postgraduate entrance examination. In fact, the English proficiency requirements vary from enrollment unit to enrollment unit. Only a few schools have made special provisions for the English proficiency of candidates with the same academic level. It is not necessary to pass CET-4 for the postgraduate entrance examination. What's more, starting from 2006, social candidates will no longer be allowed to apply for CET-4 and CET-6, and the admissions unit will make appropriate adjustments and flexibility in this regard. In fact, as graduate admissions policies become increasingly flexible, admissions units have given autonomy to relevant departments. For example, some colleges and universities only stipulate in principle that "English must reach undergraduate graduation level" for English proficiency. As for the specific requirements, it is controlled by each department.

3. Required to publish papers or have scientific research results. Many candidates with equivalent academic qualifications said this was unrealistic. In fact, each admissions unit also understands this, and they just have higher requirements for candidates with the same academic level. There will be flexible or flexible ways to handle admissions. For example, as long as the candidate presents a paper, it does not have to be published. Candidates only need to provide materials sufficient to prove their level during the re-examination, such as papers, scientific research inventions and other materials. There are also a few schools that require this requirement in their admissions brochures but do not actually require an essay. Of course, candidates should try their best to meet the requirements of the admissions unit to increase their chances of success in the re-examination.

4. Two additional professional courses must be taken during the re-examination. The additional test is a basic requirement for candidates with equivalent academic qualifications, and is also a unified requirement of the Ministry of Education. Its purpose is to test the actual level of candidates in a direct way. Candidates must reach a passing level for the additional examination.

Regarding the additional examination for professional courses, candidates should understand the requirements for applying for the major as soon as possible and prepare in advance after receiving the re-examination notice after the initial examination.

For the above questions, the first and fourth are the same requirements for each admissions unit, while the second and third admissions units have different requirements. Candidates must first understand clearly when choosing a school. It is best to seek advice from senior brothers or sisters who have been admitted before.

Application Guide

1. Obtain an undergraduate degree first and then apply for a graduate degree. If you have graduated from a junior college or are about to graduate from a junior college, it is recommended that you first continue to study undergraduate courses through adult education examinations, self-study examinations, junior college upgrading or other forms. After obtaining an undergraduate degree and applying for a graduate degree, you will save yourself the trouble of applying for an equivalent academic qualification. After all, most admissions units currently have relatively strict requirements for candidates with the same academic qualifications. Moreover, after candidates with the same academic qualifications pass the preliminary examination for the postgraduate entrance examination, they must take two additional professional courses during the re-examination. There will be no such problems when applying for graduate school after obtaining the undergraduate diploma. In fact, the reason why the admissions unit makes these requirements for candidates with equivalent academic qualifications is because it does not encourage candidates with equivalent academic qualifications to apply.

2. Comprehensively collect information on enrollment units. After determining the unit and major you are applying for, you should learn about the school’s admissions exam information through various channels. For example, try to collect as many professional course examination questions as possible in previous years; find the teaching materials required by the admissions unit or the books and scientific research papers published by the admissions tutor; understand the time and requirements of the additional examination subjects, and prepare in advance; and also pay attention to the application unit The ratio of public funding to self-funding, etc.

3. Regarding candidates with equivalent academic qualifications applying for Master of Laws. In the Master of Laws examination over the years, some schools have made it clear that they do not recruit candidates with equivalent academic qualifications to apply for the Master of Laws. For example, China University of Political Science and Law only recruits fresh undergraduates from ordinary universities without a law major and previous undergraduate graduates with a non-law major. Nankai University requires that They must be recent undergraduate graduates or past undergraduate graduates with nationally recognized academic qualifications. Candidates for junior college to undergraduate studies must obtain an undergraduate diploma in order to apply for the exam with equivalent academic qualifications to an undergraduate degree. Candidates with equivalent academic qualifications must understand these situations clearly. For review of professional courses, you must have past papers and the exam syllabus for that year. Other professional guidance books, supporting question sets for intensive classes or internal coaching materials, mentor essays for sprint classes, etc. should be determined according to one's own actual situation, and there is no unified standard.

Through the above explanation, it is still recommended that you first obtain an undergraduate degree through self-study or adult examination, and then continue to apply for graduate school. This will save you a lot of troubles and worries. It will also be beneficial when you join the workforce in the future. But if you ignore these worries and are confident about taking the postgraduate entrance examination next year, you can also take the postgraduate entrance examination directly from a junior college. The final decision is yours.

I am an undergraduate student from Huake, but I understand that junior college students are generally not favored in society. I hope you will consider it carefully and listen to the opinions and suggestions of friends around you (including mine, of course) . Anyway, good luck and all the best!
