Help! I am majoring in English and studying in graduate school, but I am very confused!

Hehe, when I was in school, my mentality was almost the same as yours.

I have told my classmates countless times:"I will definitely regret that I didn't study well when I was in school".But at that time, I knew this truth, but I couldn't read the book, I lived every day, and when I graduated and worked, I really regretted it, and now I am still picking up the professional books of the year to read.

Set yourself small goals, preferably figuring out what you want to do in the future, and then make up for them in school.

For example, most companies now generally require CET6 for graduate students, while our school only requires passing the graduate English degree exam for graduation, so I have not taken CET6, and now I regret it, so I made up for English and prepared to take a PETS

I don't know what industry you are engaged in after graduation, if you are a foreign company, maybe you can take a BEC, if you want to be a teacher, you can take a teaching certificate or something, if you do translation, it seems that you have a translation certificate or something.

I can't say the specifics, but you can find out what skills are needed in the industry you want to work in, and then refine your knowledge.

As for the boyfriend, as long as it's not too demanding, are you afraid that you won't be able to find it?

Read well, read well, read more.

Looking for a boyfriend, or going to graduate school?

There are a lot of majors to read. General humanities and business majors can be pursued. For example, Marketing, Management, International**, Human Resource Management, Media, TESOL, Education, English Language and Literature, Linguistics, etc. can be studied.

The major of Chinese as a Foreign Language focuses on bilingual teaching in Chinese and English (or another foreign language or minority language, the following relevant terms shall be adjusted accordingly), cultivating high-level professionals with a solid foundation in Chinese and English, a more comprehensive understanding of Chinese literature, Chinese culture and cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries, and the potential to further cultivate high-level professionals in Chinese as a foreign language, as well as those who can be able to work in relevant departments at home and abroad, various schools, press and publication, Senior talents in cultural management and practical linguistics engaged in teaching Chinese as a foreign language and cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries.

Choice 1: Business Business includes many majors, and English majors can apply for: management, international business, financial management, human resources, marketing (some schools), hotel management, tourism management, exhibition management, etc. - Study in Shun Shun.

If you want to switch from English to media, then you must have a wealth of extracurricular activities and media-related internship experience to support it. The same goes for business. As long as you have a relevant internship certificate, and you have a certain insight into the graduate major that can be reflected in the PS, it is OK.

There's also the fact that TESOL is a good fit for you.

It is more difficult to apply for a scholarship in the UK, so you can try it.

Some netizens recommend Mr. Tu's course for postgraduate English, and here is a copy of the teacher's latest postgraduate English materials to share with you;

Extraction code: ASWR domestic examination authority Beijing Normal University Master of English Language and Literature Columbia University Visiting Scholar From 2004 to 2012, he worked in New Oriental Education and Technology Group, and was the former English brand teacher of Beijing New Oriental School for the fourth and sixth level postgraduate entrance examinations. He has taught at the School of Foreign Languages of Beijing Normal University, and has served as a translator for the examination center of the Ministry of Education and an interpreter for international conferences of the Beijing Academy of Education Sciences.

If you have any questions about resources, please feel free to ask!

1. All the children's shoes upstairs who answered the questions should not know the situation very well. The second foreign language is only a second foreign language, and the employer will only regard this as a reference when recruiting, not as the main business. For those who are really specialized in the French and Japanese departments, they have to take the professional level 4 and professional level 8, and the foreign students will take the Japanese level 1 exam, which is not a one-level thing.

If you are interested in Japanese and have a strong ability to go to graduate school, it is a consensus that you must choose French if possible. Because of the 100-point paper in the second foreign language, you can get more than 80 points in the Japanese test, and you will not only not take any advantage, but you may also be taken advantage of. French scores are generally lower than Japanese, so you won't have a significant disadvantage.

Moreover, this second-foreign language employer does not pay attention to it when recruiting, he still looks at your main business English, and the second-foreign language is a kind of icing on the cake on the basis of your strong major, and you can't put the cart before the horse. Even if he used it as a reference, Japanese and French were better than French. Don't look at the world's top 500 Japanese companies are a lot, first of all, Japanese companies like Sony Mitsubishi recruit mainly professional and technical personnel in China, such as financial auditors and skilled workers, they do not value language skills, thirdly, the treatment of Japanese companies is very poor, my friend who works as a Japanese translator at Hitachi has a monthly salary of less than 2,000.

The middle level of Japanese companies is basically Japanese, and the Chinese have no room for development. In fact, there are many large multinational French-funded companies (L'Oreal, Veolia, LVHM, even Airbus, etc.), but they are relatively low-key and unassuming, and the Chinese do not want to get up. European companies, including French companies, are treated much better than Japanese and Korean companies, and it is a strong advantage for French companies to know French.

In addition, if you go abroad to work in the future, French will be even more useful, and Chinese companies like China State Construction have overseas operations mainly in Southeast Asia and Africa, both of which are basically French-speaking. So it's actually a lot more useful for French at work than Japanese.

More than 60 of the world's top 500 companies are Japanese, which should be the most, so it will help you find employment in the future.

It seems that you don't know much about the entrance examination for English majors.

1.The English major does not represent a professional direction, it is divided into many directions, such as English and American literature, foreign Chinese linguistics and applied linguistics, translation, English education, etc. See what interests you.

2.Although you are a junior college student, you have already obtained a bachelor's degree certificate through the college upgrade, so that you can apply for the exam as an undergraduate student and will not be subject to many restrictions on the application of junior college students.

3.If you are admitted to Henan University for graduate school, you should be able to go to Henan University more, and you should be able to find the bibliography it gives in the graduate admissions, each major and direction is different, and you should hurry up and review it after buying the book.

4.In addition to politics, the postgraduate entrance examination for English majors is made by each institution itself, and it is necessary to try to buy the real postgraduate examination questions of Henan University, do more questions, understand the difficulty, and be at ease.

5.Presumably you are also a liberal arts student, and politics is relatively simple, so you have to summarize, understand, and memorize it yourself while reading the political red book.

1.You can choose the following fields of English: linguistics, literature, translation (interpretation, translation), culture (cultural studies in English-speaking countries), intercultural communication, business English, simultaneous interpretation, English education, etc. Different schools have different classifications.

2.Are there any public scholarships for graduate students majoring in English at SISU, Beijing University of Foreign Studies, and Ocean University of China? There is a scholarship system at Shanghai and Beijing Foreign Schools, and whether there is a scholarship or not is determined according to the results of the postgraduate examination. The specific situation is still to go to these schools to find out.

3.First of all, determine the school and major direction, each school's reference books are different, and the requirements for the second foreign language are also different, so it is important to determine the school and major. Once you have decided, review it according to the designated bibliography. Generally, it is prepared a year in advance.

That's all. I wish you success in your postgraduate entrance examination!

English majors: Literature, Business English, Translation (Interpretation, Translation), Linguistics, Culture (Cultural Studies in English-speaking Countries), Intercultural Communication, Simultaneous Interpretation, English Education, etc. Each institution has the same major, and the research direction is not necessarily the same.

As for the research direction of each institution, you can go to the master's catalog of the China Graduate Admissions Information Network.

You can check these questions on the school's admissions**, and you can generally find them. As for preparation, I suggest that you should prepare according to the requirements of the school, and you can review the public courses according to the syllabus or cram school, and the professional courses must be in contact with the school, and it is best to buy the professional test questions of the past five years and do it several times, so that you can be more sure.

Prepare a 3-minute self-introduction, and then look at the vocabulary in professional English, which is basically enough!

Male students have an advantage in studying liberal arts, because liberal arts and normal schools are all seriously disproportionate, and boys will have the opportunity to have an advantage.

If you have a good foundation in English, you can continue to take the exam for your own major, and the direction of translation and interpretation is good. You can also take the English direction of the Master of Education. Of course, the difficulty of the English postgraduate entrance examination is higher than that of the college entrance examination, there is no doubt about this.

If you have a general level of English learning, you probably have to consider intermajoring. The most common cross-examination for English majors is education, which can be regarded as having a relative advantage when graduating from graduate school, that is, having an English background and having the advantage of learning education.

Of course, it is difficult to get into graduate school! There are many directions, mainly depending on what you want to do, teacher? Translation?? Interpretation?

English majors, employment in the country is focused on education. Of course, there are also many students who change careers to become tour guides and translators. But on the whole, it can be regarded as eating "by mouth".

Studying abroad, especially in English-taught countries, greatly weakens the linguistic advantage of English majors. Because Chinese students in other majors will also improve their English skills during their studies. Once they graduate, they will inevitably compete for jobs with pure language majors.

Therefore, broadening the field of employment is the top priority of liberal arts students at the graduate level.

English majors can apply for the following majors: education, media, journalism, business, art and design, etc. There are many branches of education majors in the United States at the graduate level, including high school education, junior high school education, preschool education, special education, curriculum and design, educational administration, educational psychology, etc.

Media majors, mainly focused on journalism, popularity, copywriting, etc., most of these majors do not require undergraduate studies in the same major, which is very suitable for liberal arts students. In business, accounting, finance, management, human resources, and marketing are all more suitable. The business school offers finance and accounting courses for undergraduate students with non-business backgrounds, and the duration is mostly 2 years.

Recently, there has been a real estate boom in China, and many liberal arts students also hope to get involved in this field. American universities also offer some design courses for non-art undergraduate students, such as environmental design, landscape design, etc.

Students from all liberal arts backgrounds can choose graduate majors according to their future career fields.
