Postgraduate entrance examination story: How did I get into Shanghai Jiaotong University in five months?

Five-month World War I Shanghai Jiaotong University's New Biography Experience Post

Let me talk about my basic situation first. My undergraduate course is an ordinary two colleges, and my major is advertising. Master of Journalism and Communication in World War I in Shanghai Jiaotong University, with a preliminary test score of 40 1, English 79, politics 76, major 1 130 and major 2 1 16, has been accepted.

Looking back on my road to postgraduate entrance examination, I feel quite magical. I stumbled all the way, running together and sprinting 100 meters. I didn't enroll in any postgraduate classes. Everything was explored by ourselves, and everyone didn't even expect to take the exam. However, I did it. In fact, there is no magic weapon to win the postgraduate entrance examination, only the initial enthusiasm and persistence all the way. I always believe that the harder you work, the luckier you are. Although the process was tortuous, my persistence finally paid off. Those of you who are running on the road to postgraduate entrance examination, please come on, and you will succeed next year.

What are the reasons for the postgraduate entrance examination? . . Actually, I didn't plan to take the postgraduate entrance examination either. I practiced for half a year in the second half of my junior year and plan to work in the future. However, I am always unwilling. The college entrance examination will have the strength to pay attention to this. However, when I was admitted to two universities, I always felt that the college entrance examination owed me a good university. Especially after traveling with the company, I really realized the gap, and then I completely figured it out. I don't want to work like this. This is not the life I want in the future. Postgraduate entrance examination seems to be my last chance to change my destiny, and I don't want it to slip away like this. In particular, I saw a senior start reviewing the new biography of Fudan University in September (you can Baidu yourself, thick chicken soup, very inspirational). Others can do it, why can't I? So I quit my internship in July and began to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination.

About choosing schools. The purpose of returning to graduate school is very clear, and I plan to work in Shanghai in the future. Therefore, the target institution is in Shanghai, and other places are not considered. Considering the lack of time, I didn't dare to report to Fudan. I have been entangled in Tongji, Shanghai and China Normal University for a long time. I grabbed a lottery ticket willfully, and it was Jiaotong University three times. I think it's providence. No, the choice of Jiaotong University is comprehensive and balanced. Its new media is the field I want to study most. So I chose Shanghai Jiaotong University without hesitation among all the people's doubts. Looking back now, it took only five months for an ordinary two colleges to take the postgraduate entrance examination. Because of my poor English, I bravely applied to the top five schools in China. Maybe Fu gave me wild power at that time.

After everything was confirmed, I went to Shanghai for a week in the summer vacation, just to see what the school I wanted to apply for in the future was like. As it turns out, this really inspired me, but famous schools are different. After coming back, it was July 22nd, and I felt that the effect of going home to review was definitely not good, so I persisted in school for a summer vacation. Eight reference books have been bought one after another, and I am determined to work hard and spell one for myself. I persisted for a week and found that there were many things to prepare for the new biography. I happened to see the cultural industry management major of Jiaotong University, and I thought it was better than the new biography, so I moved my mind and wanted to change my major. I found a senior in cultural management, bought reference books and materials, read them for a week, and found that cultural economics didn't go in at all. I was in a panic and didn't know what to do. I seriously thought about why I took the postgraduate entrance examination one day, what I really wanted, and decided to come back and make a new biography. There is no retreat, and you can't leave a retreat for yourself. After that, I never thought about changing schools and majors, and I firmly came to the end.

I have talked a lot about my mental journey, and I think there must be friends who are as confused as me and have gone through many detours. Speaking out is also a reference for everyone. The following is the dry goods time, I hope to help my little brothers and sisters.

Generally speaking, the whole review time is about professional classes in the morning, English in the afternoon, professional classes in the evening, and memorizing English words in scattered time. After the outline came out, I began to review politics and gave it to politics for about 2 hours in the evening. Later, I found that the review of professional courses was not good, so I adjusted the time and gave the most professional courses. But until the exam time is roughly like this.

Let's speak English first. I am very satisfied with my English score of 79, at least it shows that the method is used correctly. My own English is not good, and English is my biggest concern. Because everyone says that English can't be mentioned in a short time. I can't help it I only have so much time, so I must bite the bullet. From preparing for the exam to the first exam, I dare not neglect English, no matter how I toss about professional courses and politics. Always recite the words. You should spend more time memorizing words at first, and then you can gradually reduce the time, but it is still very helpful to read and understand the exam. I use a word book or a little red book, which matches the fine version of a small book. Recite the little red book first, then the fine version later, and constantly strengthen the memory. I believe they are all familiar to readers. Considering my English level, I only took the real English exam from 2005 to 65438+2006 (pay attention to my friends who passed the exam at Jiaotong University, but these are enough. It is said that the quality of the mock exam is not high, but I haven't done it anyway. I used Zhang Jian's yellow book. The first time I was wrong, I almost doubted my life. I don't know many words, and I can't understand long sentences at all. At that time, I was asked to recite words, do two readings and translate one reading carefully every day. I am very persistent about the problem. It takes four hours to translate a book at first, so that I can fully understand it. This process took a long time. But it is very effective, and the vocabulary and long sentences are broken. Later, translating a reading became two hours. Reading should be done repeatedly, and progress will be made every time. Of course, you should be able to summarize the topic, find your own mistakes, and carefully analyze each wrong option. I always read it five or six times. Although I remember all the answers behind, I really understand why I chose this option and feel the questioner's thinking, which is very powerful. 165438+ 10 found that I didn't do my translation, new questions, cloze and composition in October, which was really scary. Cloze is just a real problem, usually half wrong. But everyone is at this level, so they don't care much. The new topic is "Reading Comprehension Part B" of New Oriental. I will practice two questions every day according to the topic. 165438+ 10 began to recite small compositions, and Wang Jiangtao's High Score Composition is one of the top ten compositions that must be memorized. Basically once every two days. Recite 1 hour or more after lunch every day. About 65438+early February, I found that there was no big composition. I tried to write it myself, but I couldn't. I thought the exam was coming in less than a month. what can I do? As long as the time after lunch every day is given to the big composition, the top ten students must recite the model essay and then take 1 hour at night to write it by themselves, so they can really write it by themselves in the examination room. The translator recommended Tang Jing's split-merge method. The method is very good. I only read the real questions for five years, so I can master this method and use it in the exam. English is roughly like this. Remember, friends with poor English cannot relax in English. If you catch up with the exam at the beginning, you will have a great surprise.

I got 76 points in politics. It is said that this year is very difficult. My score is not bad. Everyone is similar to the big question, and the chooser wins the world. I feel that I have eaten the old capital of high school, and high school politics is really good. This year's political multiple-choice question is more difficult, which is different from the usual simulation question style and uses a lot of my knowledge of high school politics and history. Speaking of review, it begins when you come out of the outline. I bought a political red book and worked out 1000 questions for Xiao Xiurong according to certain chapters every day. Start the second brush 1000 after completion. Later, I bought four sets of volumes of Xiao Ba, Xiao Si, Wujiang and Ren Rufen, and frantically brushed multiple-choice questions. The wrong questions correspond to Xiao Xiurong's "Summary of Knowledge Points" to consolidate knowledge points. 65438+February 10 began to recite big questions, Xiao Si recited them twice, and Xiao Ba recited them again. At that time, I felt that I was not fully prepared politically and rushed to the battlefield. Choose to eat old books from high school, copy materials all the way to big questions, and recite Xiao Si. This score is very worthwhile.

Specialized courses. Although the undergraduate course is advertising, it is not a cross-major. But I have only studied communication courses, not journalism. So it is no different from interdisciplinary. I bought a reference book first, and spent a month reading it in August, taking notes on biography and interpersonal communication. There are eight reference books, but they have important points. The foundation is mainly two books, communication principles and interpersonal communication. The original work is the most important, and new and new media will also take the exam, but they are all relatively new things, and the contents in the books are not very practical. I have hardly read the classics of the 20th century and rarely get them. Read when you have time, and forget when you don't have time. The knowledge points of the four books on practice are relatively broken, so they can be mixed together and recited in combination with notes. Let's start with the basics. My score is 1 16. The biggest experience is back. Endorsement is king Tidy up before reciting. The principles of communication must be memorized, especially the theories in the last chapter of the effect study. Although interpersonal communication is relatively thick, the test sites are mainly the basic theories and models in Chapter 3, the cultural theories in Chapter 6, the nonverbal communication in Chapter 8 and the interpersonal communication in Chapter 9. Tidy up your notes and you will find that there is not much content. The new media, a Jiaotong University, always likes to talk about the US presidential election. Mainly to understand the characteristics and functions of several major social media in the United States. I got 130 on the practical test, which was a bit unexpected. There are not many excerpts from these four books. Interview methodology is mainly the content of some journalists and interviews. Commentary tutorial and financial commentary are mainly some knowledge points of commentary, but there are not many knowledge points among all-round journalists. It would be nice if we could summarize the four books from the perspectives of news genre, news theory, comments and interviews. I paid attention to the official account of People's Daily WeChat, watched the daily news early bus, and the news of the official account of CCTV News WeChat came. I downloaded The Paper app, and spent half an hour every night abstracting the news that I thought was important, and then turned it over before the exam. I only have about 3 or 4 vacancies in the examination room. Like the seven standing committees and the four tigers, they have all passed the exam and are all ready to go.

Generally speaking, in the early stage of professional courses, read books first, arrange notes, and then recite. /kloc-I found that I didn't recite it well in October, and I didn't finish it once. Realizing that this would definitely not work, I increased my recitation. I belong to the kind that I can't recite it without making any noise, and I can only recite it in the corridor of the teaching building. Think about it when you are crazy, and admire yourself. The basic and practical part of my recitation time allocation is about 2: 1. After reciting the basic knowledge, I began to read the real questions. The real question is very important and of great reference value. The professional real question starts with 1 1 and is almost finished. Then, look at the real questions you have learned. Since 2004, the distinction between master's degree and master's degree in Jiaotong University is not very big, so we should also pay attention to the practical problems of studying master's degree. I classified the real questions according to the knowledge points I investigated, and then sorted out the answers to the real questions and recited them. For example, for the knowledge points of silent spiral, noun explanation, short answer and discussion are arranged according to the real questions, and the answers corresponding to each question type are slightly different. Finish the real question in this way, and you will find the key points clear at a glance. Personally, I think the real questions are very important, so we must make good use of them.

Comments are the focus of jiaotong university, and all professional courses are tested, and the scores are relatively large. I did pay attention to the People's Daily commentary and some other comments on the official WeChat account, and I read them every day. At first, I summed up what I thought was a good review article and analyzed his writing ideas. Then I wrote it myself, basically once a week. If you master the general writing ideas of comments, you will not be confused in the examination room. You must write and practice more at ordinary times.

If you prepare for the first exam, that's about it. I'm too lazy to write experience posts now, and I can't remember many details. The road to preparing for the exam has experienced a lot. I want to write it all out and share it with you. I want my brothers and sisters to avoid detours, but in that case, this experience post will not end. Finally, I want to say that when you can't persist, you must go back and think about why you took the postgraduate entrance examination. I quit my internship and came back to graduate school, but I just didn't want to leave myself a way out. People always have to push themselves, and you will become better. There is a saying that inspired me along the way, and I also want to share it: when people reach a certain age, they should know that good luck in the population is hard work. All the hard work has become daily encouragement and conquest. All you know is to finish it and reach it. The road you choose, no matter how hard it is, will go through hardships.

The above is my own experience on the road to postgraduate entrance examination, which I share with you, hoping to inspire my brothers and sisters. Students who need reference books, notes, some electronic materials or other help can contact me. An information button is a long-term umbrella, and Weibo is a rainy mountain.

Finally, I wish all the best to 18 postgraduate students. Jiaotong University deserves your best. Let's go
