1. Choosing a school: There are roughly seventeen or eight schools that can apply for a master's degree in French. Comprehensive universities include: Peking University, Nanda University, Fudan University, Wuda University, Xiamen University, Yunnan University, East China Normal University and Sun Yat-sen University (it seems that there is also the Railway Campus of Central South University). Foreign language institutions: Beijing Foreign Studies University, Shanghai International Studies University, Guangzhou International Studies University, Shanghai International Studies University, Sichuan International Studies University, Tianwai International Studies University; There are also the Institute of International Relations, university of international business and economics, and the Diplomatic Academy.
You can also refer to the institutions with doctoral programs: Peking University, Wuda University, Nanda University, Shanghai International Studies University and Guangwai University.
Research directions generally include linguistics, literature, teaching methods, translation studies and culture. Although they were all filled in when they signed up, they will be re-filled after entering the school, and a tutor will be selected. In addition, there will be some applied masters who don't write master's thesis (a translation newly opened by Beijing Foreign Studies University in recent years is this type) or advanced translation (international conference translation, which is difficult to test, and the number of qualified people may not be able to start classes). Please choose according to your interest, the tutor you want to apply for and your future career plan.
The most direct way to learn more about the school is to go directly to the school's enrollment network. Generally know the expected number of students enrolled, the data of previous years, and the tutor information of master students. Some schools offer books to download, which can be purchased or downloaded to the examination papers of previous years. For example, the research department of Shanghai International Studies University has a list of reference books, and it is necessary to buy real volumes from previous years. In addition, with the target colleges, you can call for detailed consultation, and if you have the conditions, you can also learn about the teaching materials used by the undergraduate course, listen to advanced professional courses, and understand the difficulty.
2. After thinking about the school and direction to apply for, the registration is basically in 10 of the last semester of the senior year. It is best to hurry up the deadline, some by mail, and some by online registration. Don't miss time.
3. Preparation and Examination: The first round of written examination includes four subjects: two majors+Zheng Zhi national examination paper+English as a second foreign language (the time is Saturday and Sunday after the final examination of senior three).
There are remedial classes for postgraduate entrance examination outside. You can ask the students around you who are taking the postgraduate entrance examination what classes to recommend. You started preparing for this course in junior year, and there are autumn classes in senior year. The lowest scores of different schools are different (the single subject can't be lower than xx, so the unified examination paper can't be too low. This aspect reflects the difficulty of the exam, and the number of applicants can also be reflected. In particular, well-known tutors can bring limited students and it is difficult to take the exam). The most important part of the test score is the written test of two professional courses, which usually tests the most solid foundation of grammar and vocabulary and translation. English as a second foreign language is generally a national examination paper, and the general difficulty of English in foreign language colleges is CET-6 or TEM4, or the website will make comments. English decides when to start preparing according to its own level.
If the written test is passed, the second interview will inform the time. Many times, you may meet a future tutor and get to know you from the aspects of knowledge, research direction and language expression. Foreign language colleges may also increase the second foreign language oral test, but because the score accounts for a low proportion, it is not necessary to drag its feet. Students with poor oral English are easy to get low marks in the second interview in foreign language colleges, and it is best to strengthen them especially.
The following part is hearsay with some basis in the circle: basically, a well-known school still prefers its own undergraduate course. Nantah attaches great importance to scientific research, and they have been learning to write academic papers since their undergraduate studies. People who are not strong in scientific research should not try easily.
Because I have been in East China for a long time, although I try my best to be objective, some information is inevitably lacking. Please forgive me.
I hope I can help you.
