Did the Ministry of Education cancel the school interview?

The Ministry of Education did not explicitly cancel the school interview, but judging from the job requirements issued by colleges and universities, it is really similar.

On the premise of ensuring fairness and justice, we should actively explore multi-dimensional evaluation models and gradually establish an effective mechanism for selecting and cultivating top-notch innovative talents in basic disciplines.

-based on serving the strategic needs of the country. The strong foundation program mainly selects students who are interested in serving the country's major strategic needs, have excellent comprehensive quality or are top-notch in basic disciplines. To highlight the supporting and leading role of basic disciplines, relevant colleges and universities should combine their own school-running characteristics and recruit students with the focus on mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and history, philosophy, ancient philology and other related majors.

-select some colleges and universities to carry out pilot projects. At the beginning, some "first-class universities" were selected to build universities for pilot projects. Relevant colleges and universities can apply to the Ministry of Education and submit an integrated plan for enrollment and personnel training of related majors. The Ministry of Education organizes experts to study and determine the universities, majors and enrollment scale of the Strong Foundation Program. Since 2020, the original independent enrollment method of colleges and universities will no longer be adopted.

-Reform the way of enrollment and selection. Explore the establishment of a multi-dimensional assessment and evaluation model for students' enrollment based on the unified college entrance examination. Colleges and universities determine the list of candidates who take college exams according to their college entrance examination results. After candidates take part in the unified college entrance examination and college assessment, colleges and universities will integrate the comprehensive scores of candidates in proportion according to their college entrance examination scores, college comprehensive assessment scores and comprehensive quality evaluation (the proportion of college entrance examination scores shall not be less than 85%), and admit candidates from high to low according to their comprehensive scores. For a very small number of candidates who have outstanding talent and performance in related disciplines, the relevant colleges and universities may formulate the examination conditions and methods for being shortlisted for colleges and universities and announce them to the public in advance. Candidates must take the unified college entrance examination.

-Innovative talent training mode. Colleges and universities independently formulate training programs for students admitted through the strong foundation plan, and adopt training modes such as tutorial system and small class size. Establish an incentive mechanism to enhance students' sense of honor and mission. Smooth growth and development channels, for students with excellent academic performance, colleges and universities can give priority to recommending graduate students who are exempt from exams, direct scholarships, studying abroad at public expense, scholarships, etc. Explore the establishment of undergraduate-graduate-doctoral training model. Promote cooperation through science and education, and explore the establishment of a talent training mechanism combining major scientific research tasks. Students admitted through the strong foundation program are not allowed to transfer to majors other than related disciplines in principle.

-Improve the mechanism for ensuring fairness and justice. Strict college examinations, written examinations and interviews must be arranged at the standardized test sites of national education examinations. The interview takes the form of "double random" lottery between experts and candidates, and the whole process is recorded and recorded. Improve information disclosure and strengthen the investigation and punishment of violations of discipline and discipline. Incorporate the enrollment and personnel training of the strong foundation plan into the scope of inspection and supervision, and establish a dynamic access and exit mechanism.
