What should British students do after failing the course?
Language classes Language classes are generally aimed at students who have reached the academic level, but their language scores are average, or who want to go to Britain to adapt to life in advance. So what should I do if I fail this course? According to past experience, some British universities will ban students from entering school because of their poor grades. At this time, students can: 1. Apply to the school for a major that is not full and has low language performance requirements. However, there are risks in this choice: poor Chinese performance reflects students' poor Chinese ability. If he insists on entering the main course, he may not be able to keep up with the teacher's lectures, have difficulty in completing his homework and eventually fail to graduate. When students change their major temporarily, they can't accept the new major, or they are not interested in the new major and lose their initiative in learning. 2. Before the end of the language course, students choose to apply for internal test places in other universities in the UK. Some universities don't need to offer IELTS, so students can register directly and go to the university to take the exam. This kind of universities mainly focus on business and media. There is usually an interval of 2-4 weeks between the end of the language class and the beginning of the main class. At this time, you can go back to China or retake IELTS in the UK. If you pass IELTS, you can also enter the main course smoothly. This is more suitable for students who have no problem with language ability, but have made mistakes in language exams. Another solution is to delay admission. To a large extent, the failure of language class examination is because students' language level can't meet the requirements of studying in regular classes, so it is not recommended to enter school reluctantly. You can set aside half a year to a year to learn a language, so as to achieve the best learning state in ordinary classes. Some universities allow students to enter school in spring. Undergraduate evaluation method: Different institutions have different requirements for in-class homework, classroom lectures and academic papers, some of which are not given the opportunity to retake or retake the exam at all, and some can take limited courses. If you still fail the make-up exam (usually the requirements of the make-up exam will increase accordingly), the school will advise the students to quit at this time. Some students and the school are unsuccessful in adding or adding, and students can choose to transfer to other universities to re-enroll in degree courses. As for whether you can transfer credits from freshman year, different institutions have different regulations. The professional requirements of some colleges and universities are to fail freshmen and reread freshmen; Sophomore students can be promoted to sophomore year if they fail some subjects, but those who need to fail need to be retaken. Postgraduate evaluation methods: group projects, individual projects, usual homework, final exams and thesis (or graduation project) generally last only one year, so there is no such thing as persuasion. Students will have their own grades when they graduate. Some majors require that you can't have two D's in all subjects at the same time in order to get a degree. Generally, in Britain, he obtained 180 credits and was awarded a master's degree; 120 credits awarded to graduate students; 60 points will be awarded a postgraduate certificate. Of course, if you don't get the first master's degree, you can apply for a second one, but the failure of the first course will also affect the application for a second major. Britain is strict about academic performance. From language classes to undergraduate courses to graduate students, no learning stage can be passed casually. In particular, students who go to the UK for undergraduate studies every year are closely related to each other. If a course fails to meet the requirements, they may have to retake the whole semester. Of course, if you want to fail, please accept the following tips for everyone! First, "straws" are notes. In British universities, there is no syllabus and no unified teaching materials. Every professor has his own academic opinions and teaching methods. Although the professor will also give a bibliography, it can never replace the notes in class. If students can't finish their notes by themselves because of language problems, they must borrow and copy from students with neat handwriting. Complete notes are the basis for reviewing the final exam. Second, take tutorials and homework seriously. Tutoring and homework are the focus of the exam, and the focus is basically the same as that of Huada. In universities, the role of remedial classes is to answer academic questions, comment on homework, do exercises and conduct usual tests. The problem of remedial classes must be understood, because it is likely to be the content of usual tests and exams. The performance evaluation of British universities is to calculate the usual test scores. If you can improve your test scores, your final scores will be half guaranteed. Third, it is very important to participate in the "mutual aid association" seniors. Many foreign students can't finish their studies successfully because of the changes in environment and different learning methods when they first enter school. This phenomenon is particularly obvious in the first stage of university. In order to help students adapt to the new environment smoothly, the school will organize some "support clubs" composed of young teachers or senior students to help freshmen with learning difficulties, mainly to help freshmen master learning methods and understand the key points, reference books, examination forms and points of each course. This kind of organization generally begins to recruit members a few days after the start of school, and a notice is posted on the bulletin board asking students to sign up voluntarily. If the school has such an organization, students are advised not to give up. Seniors can tell you the characteristics of each teacher in detail, which are all based on experience and are very valuable. Fourth, the elimination rate of British universities is very high, which shows that the examination is not easy. Different from the traditional way of education in China, exams must not rely solely on rote memorization. If you don't fully understand this course, you will definitely fail. The final exam is usually a large exam of 2-3 hours. Only by accurately understanding the questions and answering them rigorously can we succeed. Therefore, to study in Britain, you should be clear and organized about the whole subject and have strict thinking ability. V. Actively "interact" with professors In foreign countries, it is not easy to communicate with professors, because they are basically not in the office except for classes. Students are advised to consult the professor 1-2 times at least every semester to prepare specific questions. In addition, they can learn the main points, methods and reference books from professors. There are countless benefits of directly looking for a professor, which can not only understand the main points of the course more accurately; Through the contact with the teacher, I left a good impression on the teacher and helped the final general evaluation; It is possible to learn some skills from teachers. Don't underestimate these tips, a few points can often change the final result.
