20 15 college entrance examination is just around the corner. Being admitted to a good university is the wish of countless candidates and parents. Then, how to choose a voluntary school reasonably when the test scores are online? According to the needs of college entrance examination candidates, this paper will systematically divide and introduce more than 100 good universities in China to help candidates find the most suitable school.
Before we get to the point, let's take a look at two common misunderstandings in judging a good university in society.
Myth 1: Choose schools by word of mouth.
Choosing a university according to word of mouth is only suitable for a few cases, because except for a few recognized top universities such as Tsinghua and Peking University, most schools do not have extraordinary strength. The so-called word of mouth actually comes from the familiarity and understanding of some people. People are familiar with some universities, and will have some good or bad impressions because of some scattered information received in their own experiences and lives, but they are completely strangers to other 99% schools. The views formed on this basis are very one-sided and subjective. Even workers in the field of higher education are limited by personal experience and vision, and it is difficult to make a comprehensive judgment on the situation of most schools. Choosing a school by word-of-mouth recommendation is uncertain and risky.
Myth 2: Choose a university with 985 status, 2 1 1.
China implements a relatively centralized higher education management system. In order to facilitate management and funding, the government has labeled universities with different identities in various ways. Whether they have a certain status has actually become a sign of judging the level of the university. For example, when enrolling students in the college entrance examination, one college and two colleges are a distinction of school identity. For more than 100 colleges and universities, there are more types of identity labels, such as whether they are deputy ministerial departments, whether they have graduate schools, whether they have the right to enroll students independently, and so on.
Among various identities, the most famous schools are "2 1 1 project" and "985 project", so that now 2 1 1 and 985 have become synonymous with good universities in many cases. Objectively speaking, the threshold of these identity labels set by the government is very high, and universities cannot easily obtain them. Therefore, most universities with these identities are excellent universities with the strongest comprehensive strength and the highest level of running schools in China.
However, judging from students' applications, there are also problems in choosing universities by virtue of their identity. First of all, whether to give some schools a certain identity is often not based on the level of running a school. The country will also consider other factors such as politics, nationality, national defense and geographical balance. Take "2 1 1 Project" and "985 Project" as examples, the schools supported by these two projects are not one-off but in batches. "2 1 1 project" was implemented from 1995. In 2009, Qinghai University, Hainan University, Ningxia University, Tibet University and Shihezi University were selected as the last batch. The "985 Project" was implemented from 1999. In 2004, Minzu University of China, China Agricultural University, Northwest A&F University, National University of Defense Technology and East China Normal University were selected as the last batch. Are these finally selected schools necessarily higher than other non-2 1 1 and non-985 schools? The answer should be no.
From the national point of view, it is reasonable to consider other factors comprehensively, but students obviously don't need to consider these aspects when applying for the exam, so they can't choose a university entirely by relying on the identity of the school. Otherwise, on the one hand, you may blindly enter a bad school, on the other hand, you may miss some universities with higher education level recognized by the society. Secondly, the classification method based on identity tags is too rough, and there are often too many schools with certain identities, which are not targeted enough. For example, among 2 1 12 schools, 39 are 985 schools. On the one hand, students face too many schools, on the other hand, they are also 985 schools or 265438+.
Stratification and classification standards of good universities in China
We can neither be superstitious about word of mouth nor rely on school identity, so how should we distinguish universities? From the perspective of applying for high school graduates, there are two main criteria.
The first criterion is the average score of the college entrance examination for freshmen. At present, the basic mode of enrollment in China University is that students fill in their volunteers, and then the school selects the best candidates according to the results of the college entrance examination. The higher the admission score of a university, the lower the proportion of students who meet the admission conditions, which shows that the university is better in the minds of national candidates. Therefore, the average score of freshmen in the college entrance examination is an objective reflection of the reputation of a university, especially the reputation of talent training, and it is the most important reference index when choosing a school. "The best university ranking in China?" Talent Training Ranking calculates and summarizes the college entrance examination scores of all undergraduate colleges and universities in all provinces and cities in China, and obtains the average college entrance examination scores of freshmen admitted to China University, which can be used as the basis for identifying colleges and universities.
The second criterion is the comprehensive strength of universities. A good university not only trains undergraduates, but also graduates, and also undertakes the functions of scientific research and serving the society. Universities with strong comprehensive strength often have great influence and high recognition in academia and society, so they are also important indicators for reference when choosing schools. Ranking is an intuitive means to compare the comprehensive strength of universities. At present, many institutions publish China University Rankings. Here we choose "The best university ranking in China?" Comprehensive ranking "as a reference. China's best university rankings? The index system of "comprehensive ranking" covers three basic functions of universities: talent training, scientific research and serving the society, including more than ten carefully selected key indicators for running schools. The ranking results objectively show the differences in the comprehensive strength of hundreds of universities in China, which can be used as another basis for identifying universities.
Although the ranking gives the accurate ranking information of each school, it is more valuable to divide candidates into different levels from the perspective of applying for universities, without paying too much attention to the differences between specific rankings. According to this idea, we divide the good universities in China into five grades according to the average score and comprehensive ranking of the college entrance examination, namely, flagship universities, famous universities, A-level universities, B-level universities and C-level universities, among which A-level universities, B-level universities and C-level universities are divided into comprehensive universities and characteristic universities respectively.
