1. When choosing a mentor, you must not just look at your resume. Of course, a teacher with nothing on his resume may not be able to do it, but a tutor with a brilliant resume may not be strong. It is best to evaluate whether his (her) past and present scientific research conditions in this school are combined. For example, the animal research in this school is very strong, but the teacher is a microbiologist, so even if ta is a postdoctoral fellow at N Niu School, it is useless, because ta is likely to be dragged by this school to put on a show or apply for a doctorate. You will be depressed if you follow ta. If you want money, you have no money, no status and no equipment. It is difficult to do experiments, and it is even more difficult to publish good articles. In the end, it is very likely that three years have passed in such a daze. Although you graduated, what did you learn? How much can I use in my future work? People who follow such tutors will basically not have exams, because they have lost confidence in scientific research because of ta.

2. It is best not to choose a female teacher aged 28-40 as a tutor. Of course, most teachers in this era have no grades, and I'm not talking about grades. The biggest problem is that most of them have a child below 10 at home. At this time, women will put too much energy on this child at home. What is your research topic? Find your own way ~ ~ How can I care about you ~ ~? Especially those children who haven't attended primary school, won't put too much energy on you. Are you more important, or your own children? You are lucky to graduate.

It is best not to choose a doctor who has just returned to China, especially a teacher who is studying abroad. A large part of these teachers have been influenced by foreign thoughts for a long time, and they don't know much about domestic human accidents, such as finding someone to apply for a topic, and articles can be posted quickly. Indeed, there is no problem with the ability of TAs, but how to mix these experiences in China takes 2-3 years, and it takes 3-5 years to establish their own laboratory and form a system. You should have joined the TAs from the beginning, except as a cannon. Wait to suffer indignities with your mentor.

4. If you really want to learn something, you'd better not choose those teachers who have the title of party and government. Although these teachers are secretaries and party member, can our dear Party guide us in the experiment? And ta people don't necessarily have real talent and learning. Who do you think can give up academic leaders or dean, director and other officials and become the chief of the party and government? Only one thing makes sense, that is, ta's professional ability is not good, he can't convince the public, and he wants to be an official by sharpening his head. What can they do? They can only do these jobs. Ta often makes the mistake of pretending to be an expert to guide your experiment. If you find the right ta, you will say that ginger is still old and spicy. If you fail, ta will even say that you made a mistake in the experiment or that you didn't understand your intention. You don't believe me? Try one. You can deeply understand how Xie Yalong ruined football in China. ......

Don't be fooled by the appearances and remarks of some teachers. Some teachers talk very well about how promising their projects are and how good they are to students, just like their own children. After graduation, they can recommend you a job or a doctoral tutor according to your performance. You must change the meaning of these words. The project is promising, but it is unlikely to be proved; Treat students as children, which means I can scold you, beat you, and use you to work for free. You still have to smile. Who can negotiate the price with parents? After graduation, I recommend a job or a doctoral supervisor based on your performance-in the end, TAs will definitely say that your performance in the past two years is too general, so I can't recommend it to others, and I can't face it. Finally, draw water with a sieve, and you can cry. Considering that you missed many good opportunities, you had a lot of courage to choose such a teacher! Before choosing a tutor, be sure to ask the graduates with ta. Only the teaching assistant will tell you the truth.

6. Don't choose a teacher who retires from the leadership position before his age. There must be something wrong with such a teacher, otherwise how could he come down from above? He is not popular, has insufficient professional ability, or has a scandal. With such a teacher, you can imagine what your hips will be like. Obviously, the instrument is free there, but the teacher in charge of the instrument just won't let you use it. Obviously, you can submit any article in the school newspaper, but the editor will say that your article is unqualified; Obviously, a teacher was talking and laughing with you just now. As soon as I heard your tutor's name, I ran away and shut up. Obviously, you can be awarded the XX Award, but when people in the college saw that you were a student of ta, they crossed your name off the list with a stroke of a pen ..... It is an eternal truth that the winner is the prince and the loser is the coach.

7. It is best not to choose a well-known teacher in the school, but there are not many things in the ta lab. This situation is not common, but with the market economy, the flow of teachers is also normalized. Most of these teachers have to pack up and leave. What would you do if you followed ta? For the sake of project continuity, are you going with ta? In order not to change the experimental environment, you stay? Why bother yourself anyway.

The above experience is just a family statement. Of course, there are exceptions to everything. There may be good tutors who meet the above-mentioned "standards", and those who have nothing to do with the above-mentioned standards are not necessarily bad tutors. Just like the experiment, I made a negative result and could not publish the article. However, I may be able to give some inspiration to future generations: I don't want to choose such a mentor!
