Hello, I am a graduate student in the English Department of Southeast University. At present, the school I know that English majors do not take linguistics and British and American literature in the postgraduate entrance examination is Yangzhou University, and the professional thesis is 150, all of which are translations. It is not clear whether the examination mode will change in 2009, so it is better to know it in real time.

In addition, if you take the English teaching method and belong to the English department, but you take the two national exams of pedagogy and postgraduate English. Individual schools don't take the postgraduate English test, but take the second foreign language test, that is, the model of "politics+second foreign language+pedagogy", but in this case, you have to prepare for the pedagogy test.

In addition, if you don't want to read so many books, you'd better choose a school whose professional volume only focuses on literature or linguistics, because some schools can read a lot in literature, linguistics and understanding. Generally, there are only 2-3 professional reference books in this school, focusing only on literature or linguistics.

However, by the way, the postgraduate entrance examination covers a wide range of things. If you don't give a large number of bibliographies, it means that the school will have a wide range of topics, because it is impossible to write only from reference books, and it may be more tiring to review. You need to see more interested schools to compare your choices.
