Every art student has his own interests and specialties, some are good at modeling, and some like design; Some have expertise in animation, and some are small experts in calligraphy. Candidates and parents should tailor their majors around candidates' interests and specialties. At present, art majors can be divided into pure art, design, media and others. Among them, pure art mainly includes: oil painting, sculpture, Chinese painting, printmaking, mural painting, illustration, lacquer painting, public art, comprehensive art painting, fine arts, cultural relics identification and restoration, etc. Design categories mainly include: clothing design, graphic design, landscape design, interior design, decorative art design, dyeing and weaving design, jewelry design, shoes and boots design, toy design, modern handicraft design, industrial design, printing and packaging design, network multimedia design, ceramic art design, exhibition design, drama stage design, architectural design, environmental art design, visual communication design, furniture product design and other majors; Media categories mainly include: radio and television director (film and television advertising), digital media art, recording arts (film and television recording), photography (film and television photography), film and television animation, advertising (advertising planning), drama, film and television art, online game art and other majors; Other categories include: calligraphy, seal cutting and photography.

2, foster strengths and avoid weaknesses have skills:

Many candidates with good grades have failed in more than a dozen school exams. The main reason is not to choose school exams according to their own advantages and disadvantages, so candidates should learn to foster strengths and avoid weaknesses. For example, candidates with poor sketch foundation should try to avoid colleges and majors with exam subjects when choosing school exams; Candidates who have not studied design should try to avoid participating in colleges and majors that need to learn basic design disciplines; Candidates who are good at dictation will participate in some colleges and majors that only take dictation subjects. In addition, candidates must open the gradient when applying for the exam. Schools at all levels should choose 2-3 schools, and ***9 schools are more suitable. This so-called level varies from person to person. If you are a very top-notch candidate, the first level is of course nine fine arts colleges and some famous art colleges; If it is a candidate with average grades, the two colleges are first-class.

2, city choice need to consider:

If it is well known that the urban development in China is uneven, most of the educational resources and employment resources are concentrated in several large and medium-sized cities. To some extent, for candidates (especially in rural and remote areas), going to college means choosing a city. Although large and medium-sized cities have high consumption and high housing prices, opportunities and treatment are also fatal advantages to attract the majority of candidates. At present, China's large and medium-sized cities are mainly divided into:

First-tier cities: Beijing (capital, political center of China, regional center of North China) and Shanghai (economic and financial center of China).

Quasi-first-tier cities: Guangzhou (South China Regional Center) and Shenzhen (Special Economic Zone)

Second-tier cities: Shenyang (Northeast Regional Center), Nanjing (East China Regional Center), Wuhan (Central China Regional Center), Xi 'an (Northwest Regional Center), Chengdu (Southwest Regional Center), Chongqing (municipality directly under the Central Government), Tianjin (municipality directly under the Central Government), Dalian, Qingdao, Hangzhou, Xiamen, and provincial capital cities.

Obviously, the most developed economic and educational resources in China are mainly concentrated in the above cities. Among them, China has the largest number of universities in seven regional centers and economic and financial centers, namely: Beijing (capital, China political center, North China regional center), Shenyang (Northeast regional center), Nanjing (East China regional center), Wuhan (Central China regional center), Xi 'an (Northwest regional center), Chengdu (Southwest regional center) and Shanghai (China economic and financial center).

In addition, candidates who are very afraid of cold should try not to choose the northeast region; Don't go to Wuhan, Nanchang, Chongqing, Nanjing, Fuzhou, Guangzhou and other cities if you are afraid of heat; Don't go to the south without food. Wait a minute.

3, the enrollment brochure is the most critical:

1 application conditions. For art students, color-blind and weak candidates can't apply for art majors. This must be known. In addition, the PLA Art College does not recruit repeat students (previous students), who are under the age of 20.

② Enrollment plan. 365,438+0 independent colleges and universities with arts majors, 65,438+03 reference colleges and some colleges and universities stipulated by the Ministry of Education (such as Beijing Normal University). ) enrollment for the whole country, there is no provincial enrollment plan. Candidates who apply for these institutions nationwide are all ranked and accepted (some institutions have provincial restrictions on enrollment, such as Fudan University, Shanghai and school of visual arts). There is another important question here. Many parents and candidates are asking how many students this school enrolls in our province. At present, many schools adopt flexible enrollment plans, and the number of candidates enrolled in a certain province is not fixed. For example, the enrollment plan of 20 1 1 of Fujian Normal University is: fine arts 100 students (including national talent training base) (including 50 students in Fujian Province and 50 students outside Fujian Province), and art design 140 students (including art design, fashion design and engineering) (.

③ Enrollment category. Most colleges and universities have multiple fine arts majors, so there are differences in enrollment categories. Some students enroll students according to the major categories of fine arts, that is, all the candidates majoring in fine arts in this college take the same subjects. After passing the school examination, candidates can apply for any major in this college, such as fine arts and art design. Some colleges and universities enroll students by major. The content of art and art design exams is different at school, and candidates can only apply for the corresponding major if they pass the exam.

4 admission rules. At present, the admission methods of art colleges are roughly divided into three types: first, after passing the professional courses, they are admitted from high scores to low scores according to the results of the cultural courses in the college entrance examination, and there are fewer such schools; The second is that after the cultural class reaches the online level, it is admitted from high score to low score according to the professional course scores. There are many such schools; The third is to combine the scores of cultural courses and professional courses according to a certain proportion (according to a calculation formula given by the school), and then enroll students from high scores to low scores. Most colleges and universities now adopt this form of admission. Students should carefully analyze their own strengths and weaknesses; If you get good grades in professional courses, try to choose the major admitted by professional courses; If you get good grades in the culture class, try to choose the major you want to enroll in according to the culture class. This can give full play to their own advantages and improve the admission rate. It is worth noting that some colleges and universities have restrictions on English or Chinese scores, and candidates need to consider them carefully.

⑤ Admission batch. This is very important for candidates. Many candidates are blind when they apply for school exams. Schools in the same batch applied for 5-6, got several certificates, and failed to apply for any other batch. In the end, only one institution can be enrolled, and other batches are empty, which wastes opportunities, money and energy. As for which colleges and universities are in which batch, it is suggested that candidates, as former art college entrance examination students, borrow a book about volunteering, which has detailed instructions and classifies which ones use the results of the unified examination and which ones use the results of the school examination. This book is called Friends of College Entrance Examination in Henan, College Entrance Examination World in Jiangxi and College Entrance Examination Guide in Anhui. Other provinces have other names.

4. The admission scores over the years are important reference materials:

Students can refer to the admission scores of various majors in colleges and universities in the past three years, and choose the colleges and majors that they can apply for according to their own strength in professional courses and cultural courses. For colleges and universities that want to implement the school examination, after selecting colleges and majors, they should carry out professional study and professional training according to the specific requirements of the examinations in various colleges and universities, so as to carry out effective training in a targeted manner. Moreover, the admission of art students fluctuates greatly every year. The admission to this university is sometimes 128, and sometimes it becomes 158. So the admission scores are for reference only. The Admissions Office of Hebei Province has published a special book "Statistics on the Distribution of Enrollment Scores of National Colleges and Universities in Hebei on 20/2008-20 10/0", which candidates can buy, and similar books may be published in other provinces.

5, the school strength and professional prospects need to be considered:

Art majors have developed rapidly in recent years, and some colleges and universities have blindly expanded their enrollment, resulting in over-employment of some majors. But there are also many professional social needs, which are in short supply. Candidates should try their best to choose a professional institution when choosing an institution. For example, those who apply for fine arts majors should try to apply for 9 fine arts colleges, followed by art colleges, and some normal colleges and comprehensive universities are also good choices. The following are institutions with strong artistic expertise among various institutions (for reference only):

The nine academies of fine arts are: China Academy of Fine Arts, Central Academy of Fine Arts, Tsinghua University Academy of Fine Arts, Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts, Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts, sichuan fine arts institute, Xi Academy of Fine Arts and Hubei Academy of Fine Arts.

Famous art institutions: Shandong Arts and Crafts Institute, Jingdezhen Ceramic Institute, Nanjing Art Institute, Shandong Art Institute, Jilin Art Institute, PLA Art Institute, Guangxi Art Institute, Yunnan Art Institute, Xinjiang Art Institute, Beijing Film Academy, China Communication University, Central Academy of Drama, China Theatre Academy, Shanghai Theatre Academy, Beijing Dance Academy, Sichuan Conservatory of Music, South Campus of Shenyang Conservatory of Music, Zhejiang Media College, Shanghai school of visual arts of Fudan University, etc.

Comprehensive universities: Shanghai University, Donghua University, Minzu University of China, Jiangnan University, tianjin polytechnic university, Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology, Suzhou University, Beijing Institute of Printing, Zhejiang Sci-Tech University, dalian polytechnic university, Wuhan University of Technology, Hubei University of Technology, Hunan University of Technology, wuhan textile University, Xi Engineering University, China Renmin University, Tongji University, Nankai University, etc.

Normal universities: Capital Normal University, Nanjing Normal University, Huazhong Normal University, Southwest University, etc.

6. Which institutions and majors are better to test:

Many candidates come to ms3 15 to ask which schools are better, which schools have fewer applicants and which schools have higher success rates? In fact, the majority of candidates must be awake. Schools with good exams are basically not good schools, and good schools and majors are not good. According to the summary, the schools that are easy to test mainly include the following categories:

First: remote areas. For example, unknown colleges and universities in three northeastern provinces, Xinjiang, Tibet, Qinghai, Ningxia, Gansu, Shaanxi, Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan are better.

Second: those with expensive tuition fees are easier to test.

Third, schools that find the school name difficult to remember, difficult to learn and unfamiliar are easier to test (suitable for candidates who have just passed the line). For example, baise university (Guangxi), Suzhou College (Anhui), west anhui university (Anhui), Chuzhou College (Anhui), Changji College (Xinjiang), Shangqiu Teachers College (Henan), Yancheng Institute of Technology (Jiangsu), Yancheng Teachers College (Jiangsu), lishui university (Zhejiang), Taizhou College (Zhejiang), Putian College (Fujian) and Wuyi College. Shaoguan College (Guangdong), Zhaoqing College (Guangdong), Huizhou College (Guangdong), jiaying university (Guangdong), Xiaogan College (Hubei), Xianning College (Hubei), Hechi University (Guangxi), Shaoyang College (Hunan), Huaihua University (Hunan), Xiangnan College (Hunan), Mianyang Normal College (Hunan), neijiang normal College (Hunan)

Fourth: Universities that have just been promoted to undergraduate courses. Hunan Women's College, Shandong Women's College, Hebei Teachers College for Nationalities, zhejiang international studies university, ningde normal university, Guangdong Second Teachers College, Jining Teachers College and so on.

Fifth, the pure art major is better than the practical major. ① Pure art: oil painting, sculpture, Chinese painting, printmaking, mural painting, illustration, lacquer painting, public art, comprehensive art painting, fine arts, cultural relic identification and restoration, etc. ② Design category: clothing design, graphic design, landscape design, interior design, decorative art design, dyeing and weaving design, jewelry design, shoes and boots design, toy design, modern handicraft design, industrial design, printing and packaging design, network multimedia design, ceramic art design, exhibition design, drama stage design, architectural design, environmental art design, visual communication design, furniture product design, etc. ③ Media category: radio and television director (film and television advertising), digital media art, photography (film and television photography), film and television animation, advertising (advertising planning), drama, film and television art, online game art, etc. ④ Other categories: such as calligraphy, seal cutting and photography.

7. Precautions for school examination

1, it is often said that "know yourself and know yourself, and you will win every battle", but the most fatal thing in the art test is that you can't "know yourself and know yourself". Culture class can be a bosom friend, because you only need to know a score to judge that the answer is right, and the whole world says it is right. Art is different. The feedback you get is often limited by objective factors such as geography and teachers. Of course, teachers can still judge roughly according to the situation in previous years, but parents should not always show "ambition" in front of teachers, and teachers can't bear to throw cold water on them. The evaluation of your child can only be based on "positive encouragement", and the teacher is "polite", so you should listen to "hints" more;

2. Know yourself on the basis of your bosom friend. Understand the examination information of each school, check the school brochure and the admission situation over the years on the Internet. The admission situation over the years can only be a general reference, not a standard, and the scores of some schools will vary wildly.

3, basically determine the school to take the exam. If you can't judge the level of the candidates, you have to turn to the teacher's advice. Parents and children must study hard and unify their thinking. It's not what "good" school we go to (because it's easy to reach * * *), but what "bad" school we go to. Don't think others are ugly. Maybe this "bad" school will let you cross the line. At this time, you may find that children are used to going out to learn painting: their hands are not high, but their hearts are high.

4. After the school examination time and test sites are arranged, according to the time and place, it is finally determined that 8 10 can be used (in short, while waiting for the professional results to be announced, I always think that I should take more exams and have more opportunities for "lottery"), and scientifically arrange the class schedule. Some provinces stipulate that those who set up examination centers in their own province must return to their own provinces for examinations, which is a troublesome thing for those who go out to study. Buy and book tickets as soon as possible. Know when and how to recite, recite it. Whether the registration can be reported on behalf of the newspaper, of course, you can't report on behalf of the newspaper if you need to take pictures on the spot. Ask clearly before you act.

5. If the school and the studio don't arrange the round trip, food and accommodation in a unified way, then parents need to accompany them to help with the logistics such as air tickets, food and accommodation. This is what parents need to do most in the art exam. Don't listen to the child's refusal, or you will regret it.

6. Most schools finish the exam in one day, which is a challenge to the physical strength of candidates. Therefore, physical exertion outside the exam, such as running back and forth, should be reduced to the lowest point. To put it bluntly, it doesn't save money. All the money is gone, and it is still the last trembling. !

8. Study the examination questions of various schools in recent years.

Generally speaking, there will be no big changes in the professional examination questions of universities every year, especially the independent art undergraduate and the 65,438+03 reference colleges except 365,438+0 colleges.

9. Important reference links (Baidu search "3 15 Art College Entrance Examination Network" can be found):
