If you want to enter the College of Life Sciences for postgraduate entrance examination, I suggest that you enter Shaanxi Normal University, which is easier to enroll, and the life science major of Normal University is better and more promising among the non-normal majors of Normal University.
I am in Normal University, not from the Academy of Life Sciences, but in the same building as the Academy of Life Sciences, I feel very strong every day, especially there are many laboratories and experimental instruments. I suggest you consider it.
However, there is one difference between Normal University and West University. In 2008, Normal University began to carry out postgraduate reform in an all-round way, canceling public expenses and turning them into living allowances and scholarships. As long as each graduate student in Normal University receives a monthly 200 yuan allowance, the amount is not very attractive, but it can supplement the living expenses, which is not available in West University.
I hope it helps you. Good luck!
