In the current environment, there are roughly three kinds of people who take the postgraduate entrance examination:
1. Have the will and demand for further study.
? 2. Stress response to the current employment situation and the surrounding environment
? 3. Trade time for space
The second type of people is what we call "follow the trend of postgraduate study". As a junior in two universities, I also have to face the question of whether to take the postgraduate entrance examination. I failed in the college entrance examination and didn't enter the ideal college to study my favorite major, so I included the postgraduate entrance examination in my target plan as soon as I went to college, which was my deliberate decision. I don't encourage everyone to make a hasty decision to take the postgraduate entrance examination or even follow suit. Next, I would like to discuss with you the follow-up postgraduate entrance examination.
What is "follow the trend of postgraduate study"?
In recent years, under the situation of "postgraduate entrance examination fever", there has been a cliche-"follow the trend of postgraduate entrance examination". It is not advisable to follow the trend of postgraduate entrance examination. Why?

The essence of following the trend of postgraduate entrance examination is to feel confused about your future life. You don't know what you want to do and what you can do. Just watching the people around me prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination, so I also want to join this war without smoke. Take the postgraduate entrance examination as an excuse to escape from society and feel at ease.
Postgraduate entrance examination has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that you can upgrade your academic qualifications, study your favorite major, learn more knowledge, and be more competitive when looking for a job. On the contrary, the disadvantage is that compared with undergraduates, they enter the society late, lack social experience and internship experience, and sometimes their academic qualifications may not be as good as their experience when looking for a job.
Is postgraduate entrance examination really the best way out for college students? In order to avoid the hardship of work, the cruelty of real society, the boredom of life or the dissuasion of parents, it is meaningless to choose to follow suit blindly, because you will face these problems as soon as the postgraduate entrance examination comes out. Besides, if you fail the exam, you may face the following problems:
? 1 miss the opportunity to take other certificates: the postgraduate entrance examination needs to be very focused. Some research subjects do not overlap with the subjects to be studied in the postgraduate entrance examination, which will make you choose not to take other certificates first. For example, my sister gave up her translation and interpretation certificate and teacher qualification certificate because of the postgraduate entrance examination.
? 2 Miss the golden preparation period of the public examination: There are many positions for civil servants that need fresh graduates of that year. This year's graduates have great advantages and there is no way to miss them. Besides, if you want to go ashore, you must concentrate on it, and it is difficult for ordinary people to prepare with both hands.
? 3 Missed the Autumn Recruitment: Most students who take the postgraduate entrance examination have no time to participate in the Autumn Recruitment, so they can only work hard for the postgraduate entrance examination.
? (4) Frustration in Spring Recruitment: A school sister around me submitted her resume to the target company after failing in the postgraduate entrance examination, but she had no internship experience at that time and no internship plan during her college years, and fell into an infinite cycle of job hunting.

Bian Zhilin's "Broken Chapter" has a sentence, "You stand on the bridge and watch the scenery, and the people who watch the scenery look at you upstairs; The bright moon decorated your window, and you decorated other people's dreams. " In fact, life is like a fence in many ways. You envy others, and others envy you. After my sister was admitted to an enviable university, when she was in the second year of graduate school, she told me that she had a little regret and envied having a job around her.
