Tang Shangjun took the college entrance examination 16 times, broke through more than 600 points again, and was admitted to the physics class of information engineering major of South China Normal University after being approved in advance!
Will he be willing? Will it be officially reported? Don't know whether to congratulate or regret?
Tang Shangjun applied for 4 majors at that time, chemistry, information engineering, environmental engineering, mathematics and mathematical applications, and his ideal major was chemistry, mathematics and mathematics application teacher training, saying that if he was admitted, he would go to university, and if he was admitted to the other two majors, he would consider it again.
And he was not admitted to his dream major, and when interviewed, he said: A little lost.
Someone left him a message, in 16 years, he gave up Shanghai Jiaotong University, Chongqing University, Jilin University, China politics and law, and Xiamen University, but he was admitted to South China Normal University, are you willing?
This is clearly to persuade Tang Shangjun to continue to repeat! Tang Shangjun once said: If you do well in the exam, you are full of hope, and if you want to take the exam to Tsinghua University, you will not be willing to do it if you don't do well, so you have been repeating it.
But can he still afford to gamble?
Born in 1989, he is already 35 years old, even if he is in college now, he will be 39 years old when he graduates in 4 years. Information engineering is also a job for young people, some 30-year-olds have been disgusted and old, what do 39-year-olds compare with young people? The starting point is lost.
Not to mention repeating another year, it is unknown whether it can be better than now, but after graduation, it can only become more and more uncompetitive.
If you go to college now, you still have a slight chance of winning.
Changing one's life against the sky and realizing one's ideals can not only be through the college entrance examination.
One of my high school female classmates, with average grades in high school, only took the college entrance examination as a junior college teacher, but after going to a junior college, she was very diligent and was admitted to the provincial normal bachelor's degree. As if she had suddenly clockwork, the gears of fate turned, and she was admitted to a graduate school, and later a doctorate from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and now works at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. From obscurity to fame, she chose to accept reality and rise to the occasion.
A colleague of mine, high school grades are also very ordinary, but also the examination of the specialist teacher, after the success of the college promotion and then admitted to Sichuan University for graduate school, as soon as he graduated into the enterprise is more than 3,000. Later, he changed jobs twice and worked in the provincial capital, and his salary rose. From the helplessness to accept the reality at the beginning, to the final firm path that suits him, he chose not to break or stand.
Tang Shangjun can also get rid of the curse of the college entrance examination like many friends who are disappointed in the college entrance examination, no longer stand still, but use new ways to change his current situation.
South China Normal University is a 211 and double first-class key construction university, ranking 8th among normal universities and 79th among Chinese universities.
According to an informed source, the information engineering major chosen by Tang Shangjun belongs to the School of Information Optoelectronics Science and Technology on the University Town Campus, and the compulsory courses of the major are closely related to mathematics and physics, and there are master's and doctoral programs in physics, as well as postdoctoral fellows. In the second semester of freshman year, you can apply to change majors, and your favorite chemistry school is also on this campus. A minor in Applied Psychology is required, and the campus is close by.
From this point of view, if you don't like information engineering and want to study chemistry and mathematics, it is also feasible to change majors. Because the courses in the majors are similar, the minor majors do not have to travel too much.
If you want to change majors, you need to understand the school's policy for changing majors, score requirements, and application time, prepare for the application and results in advance, fill out the application form within the specified time, participate in additional assessments, and wait for approval.
I've survived 16 years, and it shouldn't be a problem to take a few more professional courses.
Tang Shangjun has the potential to be a teacher.
He has been repeating for 16 years, and he is familiar with high school knowledge, knows the types of exam questions well, and has a good grasp of key and difficult points.
His psychological quality is very good, he can repeat his studies for 16 years, and he must be very resistant to pressure, unlike many people who can't accept themselves because of a loss, which can give some children who are not confident a lot of confidence.
He has been on the road of pursuing his dreams, maintaining a youthful spirit, and this kind of perseverance, frustration and positive energy is also worth learning from children.
Of course, being a teacher also requires some other qualities, such as expression skills, communication skills, correct educational concepts and values, etc., and studying in a teacher training college for 4 years is believed to supplement his lack of experience.
Another challenge is age.
The minimum age limit for a teaching certificate is 18 years old, and there is no upper limit, and he can take the teaching certificate normally. However, if you want to take the teaching staff, it will be troublesome, the usual age requirement is 18-30 or under 35 years old, and in some areas, it can be relaxed to 40 years old for graduate and other high education. This is true for people like Hebei and Guangxi.
However, Tang Shangjun graduated from his bachelor's degree at the age of 39, and he is not satisfied with his usual age, and he is not satisfied with his academic qualifications when he is 40 years old, so there is little hope for the teacher examination.
However, it is also a good choice to go to a training institution to be a teacher. Freedom, incomes may be higher.
In short, if Tang Shangjun insists on being a teacher and is willing to overcome some difficulties, there is still hope.
If you feel that you can't overcome the difficulties to become a teacher, you can also use a better age advantage than in the future to take the postgraduate entrance examination and doctoral examination, and the 39-year-old exam is better than the 40-year-old re-exam.
If you have a master's or doctoral degree in information engineering, the employment scope is still relatively wide.
For example, to engage in teaching and scientific research in universities or research institutes, to do chip design and research and development in the electronic technology, semiconductor or integrated circuit industry, to engage in algorithm research, model development, intelligent system design and other work in the field of artificial intelligence, to conduct software design in the software industry, to engage in communication network planning and design in the communication industry, and to engage in network system construction, data analysis, equipment development and other work in the Internet of Things industry......
As long as companies are willing to lower their age requirements, they have the opportunity to find jobs that pay well.
If the teacher and the information engineering work can't get through, he can also do self-media generously.
He kept repeating his studies, which gave people a very bad impression that he was taking up resources and competing with 18-year-olds on the same stage. If he can successfully enter the school this time, the prejudice against him will disappear and the impression of him will be reversed. After he graduates from college, he can naturally do self-media. With such a large amount of traffic, it is relatively easy for him to get a high income.
Written at the end: Tang Shangjun took the college entrance examination 16 times, was admitted to South China Normal University, and was not a dream major, will he be willing? Should I congratulate or regret it? He was probably unwilling, but repeating it was not a better choice, so it was better to climb up the pole and go straight to college. Although I feel sorry for him, I should also congratulate him on finally coming ashore.
