The interview may not be in the same examination room, because the interview questions generally include Chinese interview questions and English interview questions, so some institutions will separate special examination rooms. There is the possibility of drawing lots to answer questions and asking random questions, all in order to examine the thinking and logic of candidates and show the teacher's concentration.
Before preparing for the second interview, we should know the proportion of the second interview in this college, some of which may be 40%, 50%, or even more than 50%. Different colleges and universities may have different weighting methods for initial examination and second examination. All these can be seen in the previous re-examination notice on the research recruitment website of colleges and universities, which will be reflected.
There will be a certain grading standard on the spot, and the tutor will have a grading table in his hand. Candidates draw lots to answer questions or draw questions from the question bank, and the tutor will also ask questions at random, including asking candidates to introduce themselves and why they applied for this school/major. And then extract some key questions from your own answers.
The form of second-round exam for postgraduate entrance examination:
Structured interview: It is a traditional interview form, which is adopted by most colleges and universities. There are many one-to-one interviews, mostly 3 pairs 1, 5 pairs 1, 7 pairs 1, and there may be journalists. The tutor has a form for grading students, or he can prepare re-examination questions in advance so that candidates can draw lots to answer them. According to the candidates' answers, the tutor may also ask various questions to examine the students' comprehensive quality from different angles.
Group discussion interview: also known as leaderless interview, this interview is a temporary team composed of multiple candidates to analyze and solve established problems, with the aim of examining the organizational ability, teamwork ability and problem-solving ability of candidates. This interview form is usually used for career interviews, but it has been increasingly used for college re-examination interviews in recent two years, which is also a trend of graduate re-examination interviews in the future.
