The best choice for volunteering in the college entrance examination is undoubtedly to get high marks. You can choose either a good school or a school's ace major, but the reality is very skinny, and the test scores are always too low to fully meet your wishes. If the test scores are on the critical line of one or two key non-key universities, privately, I think that key universities should be given priority and the choice of majors should be weakened. Of course, there is a comparison between a popular provincial key university in this province and an unknown national key university in other provinces, and the test scores of the former are often even higher than the latter. Perhaps some candidates refuse to go out to study in universities and pay too much attention to the factors that will facilitate local job hunting after graduation in the future. Moreover, the test scores are at both ends, that is, one high score or two low scores, so there is no doubt that you choose your major first, combine your academic expertise and hobbies, choose a number of majors you want to study, and try to choose a university with these majors in an advantageous position in our school. The dominant majors in those universities often offer at least master's degrees or even doctoral degrees, and there are many more places for postgraduate entrance examinations than other general majors. Ordinary colleges and universities will also focus on professional cards, and some colleges and universities are often upgraded from previous colleges and universities. Choosing these majors is also conducive to finding a job in the region. Of course, if a person has social relations in certain industries at home and is interested in working in these fields, it is undoubtedly a priority to give priority to majors. Of course, if the graduate school has a minimum standard in the future, it will be considered all.
What major is unique to junior colleges, but not to undergraduate universities?
There is no such statement at present. Everything is studied theoretically before it is actually studied. The undergraduate course is based on theory, and the specialist practice shall prevail.
Is there a junior college in Sanyi Independent School?
Beijing Dance Academy, China Theatre Academy, Tianjin Conservatory of Music, Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts and Luxun Academy of Fine Arts.
Jilin Art Institute, Xi Art Institute, Shanghai Conservatory of Music, Shanghai Theatre Academy, Nanjing Art Institute.
China Academy of Fine Arts, Jingdezhen Ceramic University, Shandong Institute of Art, Shandong Institute of Arts and Crafts, Hubei Institute of Fine Arts.
Wuhan Conservatory of Music, Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, Xinghai Conservatory of Music, Guangxi Academy of Arts, sichuan fine arts institute.
Yunnan Art College, Xi 'an Conservatory of Music, Xinjiang Art College, * * * Art College (merged, no longer enrolling ordinary college entrance examination students), Sichuan Conservatory of Music.
Refer to the list of art colleges in independent undergraduate course (15)
Tsinghua University, China Communication University, Minzu University of China, Donghua University, Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology.
Jiangnan University, tianjin polytechnic university, Shanghai school of visual arts
Suzhou University (product design, environmental design, visual communication design, clothing design only)
Zhejiang Sci-Tech University (product design, environmental design, visual communication design, clothing and costume design only)
Beijing Institute of Printing (visual communication design only)
Zhejiang Media College (broadcasting and hosting, radio and television director, photography, recording arts only)
Wuhan Institute of Design and Engineering (only for majors of performance, broadcasting and hosting, drama, film and television art design)
Inner Mongolia University (music performance, performance and musicology only)
Zhejiang Conservatory of Music (limited to musicology, music performance, composition and composition technology theory, dance performance and dance science)
Usually, many people think that this kind of college is a gathering place for art students, so they think that their professional level is not enough and give up the application directly. Actually, this is a misunderstanding. The comprehensive strength of such institutions is often very strong, but not everyone will be so outstanding. This kind of school is suitable for candidates with good artistic foundation and cultivation. Of course, the entrance examination of art college is difficult and there are many candidates. At the same time, because of the prestigious school effect, the final volunteering and admission are also very intense. It is of course the most ideal to be admitted to such an institution.
What's the difference between the basic course, undergraduate course and independent course of self-taught examination?
The basic course is a specialized course,
Because there are too many courses in the whole undergraduate course and the time is too long, it is too much trouble to upgrade from junior college to undergraduate course and cross-major to junior college.
Therefore, the self-taught examination divides a major into a specialist section and an undergraduate section (an independent undergraduate section).
Each course is about 10~20 courses.
After passing the basic course examination, a diploma will be issued.
Undergraduate (independent undergraduate course) will be awarded the undergraduate diploma after examination.
Generally speaking, undergraduate courses cannot be interdisciplinary. For example, only law majors can take undergraduate courses, and other majors can only take law majors.
Independent undergraduate course allows cross-majors. For example, any college can take the independent undergraduate course for computer majors, but non-computer majors have to take 1~3 courses for computer majors.
I am an independent candidate of Tianjin Engineering Normal University. I heard that there are four-year and five-year colleges. Who can tell me their majors and courses?
Tianjin Normal University of Technology in 2008 separate enrollment brochure.
Tianjin Teachers College of Engineering is a full-time college directly under the Ministry of Labor and Social Security. Since March 2000, it has been transformed into a central and local * * * building, with Tianjin as the main management, mainly to train teachers, management cadres and applied senior professionals in secondary and higher vocational and technical education in China. The college has 10 master programs, 34 undergraduate majors and 8 higher vocational majors. In addition to recruiting high school graduates, the college adopts the methods of independent proposition, examination and admission according to the Interim Provisions of the former State Education Commission on the Enrollment of Graduates from a Few Vocational and Technical Schools (87) No.012 and the document No.41of Tianjin Vocational and Technical Teachers College of the former Ministry of Labor.

What do you mean by six unique books?
Education self-study examination includes two academic levels: junior college and undergraduate, and three professional types: junior college, undergraduate and independent undergraduate course.
1 College
Higher education self-study examination major is a type of self-study examination major with similar professional level to ordinary universities or higher vocational and technical colleges. Except for special majors, there are generally no restrictions on such majors, as long as they are China people and China citizens (including people from Hong Kong and Macao). Candidates can get a college diploma after they meet the prescribed graduation requirements.
2. Undergraduate courses
The undergraduate course of higher education self-study examination is a professional type of self-study examination, which is generally consistent with the similar professional level of ordinary colleges and universities. This kind of major can be divided into segmented undergraduate course and comprehensive undergraduate course (note: the concepts of segmented undergraduate course and comprehensive undergraduate course are my own concepts for the convenience of readers, and I haven't seen synonymous concepts yet).
(1) subsection undergraduate course
According to the characteristics and needs of the self-study exam, a comprehensive undergraduate major is divided into basic courses and undergraduate courses, which is equivalent to the "22-22 segmentation" of full-time colleges and universities. The basic part can be directly connected with the undergraduate part.
① Basic part
The basic course is a professional type of self-study exam. According to its own characteristics and needs, it lists the courses learned in the first and second grades of four-year undergraduate courses in ordinary colleges and universities. Self-taught examination management institutions in most provinces implement the same management for specialties such as specialized courses. There are generally no restrictive admission conditions for this kind of major, and candidates can also obtain a diploma after meeting the prescribed graduation requirements.
② Undergraduate part
Undergraduate course is a professional type of self-taught examination. According to its own characteristics and needs, this paper lists the courses learned in the third and fourth grades of four-year undergraduate courses in ordinary colleges and universities. This kind of major has restrictions on the conditions for applicants to apply for the exam, that is, they can only apply for the exam if they hold a diploma of junior college (or above) with nationally recognized academic qualifications or study in junior college (or above). Candidates can obtain an undergraduate diploma after meeting the prescribed graduation requirements.
(2) Comprehensive undergraduate course
Single-subject undergraduate course is a rare professional type in the field of self-taught examination, and now only a few provinces such as Zhejiang Province and Jilin Province offer such majors. The main difference between this kind of specialty and segmented undergraduate specialty is that this kind of specialty is not segmented and maintains a closed and complete curriculum. Except for special majors, such majors generally do not set limited and qualitative conditions for entering the exam. Candidates can go beyond the junior college stage and obtain the undergraduate diploma directly after completing the undergraduate course and meeting the prescribed graduation requirements.
3. independent undergraduate course Department
The independent undergraduate course part of the higher education self-study exam is a professional type of self-study exam, which is based on the starting point of the junior college level and independent of the junior college level, and is set up for college graduates of various forms of higher education to further their studies. Self-study examination management institutions in most provinces implement the same management as undergraduate majors, and only those who hold a diploma of junior college (or above) or are in junior college (or above) can apply for the examination. Candidates can also obtain an undergraduate diploma after meeting the prescribed graduation requirements.
4. Differences and connections between junior college and basic courses, undergraduate courses and independent undergraduate course courses.
(1) Differences and connections between specialized courses and basic courses.
① Difference: The major is an independent, closed and complete type of self-taught examination, which is not directly related to the independent undergraduate course plate of the same major. Basic courses are a part of undergraduate majors, which are directly related to their undergraduate courses.
② Contact information: Generally, there are no restrictions on the two majors, as long as they are from China and citizens of China. Candidates can also get a college diploma after meeting the prescribed graduation requirements.
⑵ The difference and connection between undergraduate course and independent undergraduate course.
① Difference: Undergraduate course is a part of undergraduate major, which is directly related to its basic courses. Independent undergraduate course is a professional type of self-study exam, which is independent from the junior college level. This major is not directly related to the specialties of the same major.
② Contact: Both majors are the starting points of specialties, and only readers with diplomas of specialties (or above) recognized by the state or in specialties (or above) can apply for the exam. Candidates can also get an undergraduate diploma after meeting the prescribed graduation requirements.
5, some provinces, municipalities directly under the central government, autonomous regions, self-study examination of the simplified provisions on the division of professional types.
The professional classification mode of junior college, undergraduate course (basic course and undergraduate course) and independent undergraduate course is a standard professional classification mode, and many self-study examination management institutions in provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions (such as Beijing, Shanghai, Jilin and Guangdong) also carry out practical work according to this professional classification mode. However, there are still some provinces, municipalities directly under the central government and autonomous regions (such as Tianjin, Anhui and Hubei) that do not fully adopt this standard professional classification model in their actual work, and simply simplify the professional types into "specialist" and "undergraduate". The "major" here refers to basic courses and specialized courses, and the "undergraduate" refers to undergraduate courses and independent undergraduate course. It is particularly important to note that, in terms of professional management, most self-taught examination management institutions in provinces, municipalities directly under the Central Government and autonomous regions have the same management for basic courses and specialties, undergraduate courses and independent undergraduate course, regardless of the standard or simplified professional classification mode.
(Note: The contents of the application conditions of various professional types in this paper are summarized by the general provisions of self-study exams in various provinces. In case of conflict, the specific provisions of the provincial self-study examination conditions shall prevail.)
Is it better to set up a college in an undergraduate school or to set up a college alone?
If it's just for the diploma, it's all the same
If you want to learn something, find a professional job, and it's unpopular, of course it depends on a professional teacher.
Although bosses promote people according to their abilities, too many companies still look at your academic qualifications to open the door to interviews.
I took an examination of refrigeration and air conditioning technology in the independent enrollment interview of the Eighth Hospital. If the interview asks me why I chose this major, how much do I know about this major and how to answer it?
Every household has air conditioning. If it breaks down, I can go home for further study and do my job well. This is my wish.
If you have the intention of upgrading to a college, choose a college or a separate college.
It is best for a natural undergraduate to be a junior college.
Although a certain number of students in independent colleges can cooperate with undergraduate colleges every year to promote undergraduate courses, it is a matter between the two schools after all. If we were in this school, many things would be much easier.
Of course, we should pay attention to one question here, that is, is there any channel for your major to upgrade from junior college to undergraduate college, because some undergraduate colleges have not continued to communicate with their undergraduate majors because of historical evolution. In this case, there is definitely no possibility of upgrading from junior college to undergraduate course, which should be avoided. You can consult the admissions office of the institution you want to apply for.
