According to the regulations of the Ministry of Education, this year's high school graduates who meet the conditions of independent enrollment and the conditions of independent selection and admission of pilot schools can be recommended by their middle schools or experts, but they must all be provided or confirmed by their middle schools, as well as proof and realistic materials such as awards and specialties.
As a way of selecting outstanding students in colleges and universities, the introduction of independent enrollment policy provides opportunities for outstanding students who failed in the college entrance examination to enter prestigious schools, which is a useful supplement to the college entrance examination.
This year is the second year of independent enrollment. The Ministry of Education has made many policy adjustments. In addition to the addition of six universities, the biggest change is that students can write recommendation materials for universities themselves. As long as students think they are qualified to be recommended, they can volunteer themselves without going through middle school. This has changed from the way of recommendation in designated areas and designated universities to the way of combining personal recommendation with middle school recommendation, and not only students in key middle schools can sign up, but also students in general middle schools can recommend themselves if they think they are strong.
Self-recommendation: Students are not self-motivated.
The purpose of introducing self-recommendation is to make self-enrollment more fair, just, open and reasonable, and to give students with outstanding skills, training potential or excellent comprehensive quality the opportunity to fully display themselves and stand out. But the reporter learned from some colleges and universities that there are not many students who really recommend themselves.
Why is this happening? Fan, director of the Admissions Office of East China Normal University, said that many candidates could not recommend themselves because they thought they did not meet the standards after comparing the recruitment plans announced by various schools. The reporter found that at present, the enrollment plans announced by domestic self-enrollment universities are basically the same, and the regulations of colleges and universities on self-enrollment objects are still quite harsh. Many of them just do some relief on the basis of the conditions of walking students. For example, the original rule of walking students is to "take part in five national Olympic Games in mathematics, science, chemistry, biology and informatics in high school and win the first prize in national or provincial competitions", but the conditions for independent enrollment in some universities have been reduced to such hard conditions, and students who can recommend themselves actually have the opportunity to pass the recommendation of the school. According to relevant sources, according to the current plan, there will not be many students who can recommend themselves. If they only want to recruit high-scoring candidates, they can pass the normal college entrance examination without setting up a link of independent enrollment.
Self-enrollment: the school is determined
At present, the scores of Peking University, Tsinghua University, Fudan University and Shanghai Jiaotong University have been announced, and the independent entrance examinations of East China Normal University and East China University of Science and Technology will begin soon.
Peking University: Written test plus personal statement The school collected the topics presented this year from the students who enrolled independently in 2003, and then selected some topics from the hundreds of answers received. There is no so-called correct answer to these questions, but I hope to know more about the candidates, such as personality, thinking or pursuit. The school hopes that candidates can express and reveal their views to the maximum extent. Professor Peking University formed an expert group to conduct the interview. According to the candidates' self-statements, the experts drew lots and answered questions within 15 minutes to judge the candidates' comprehensive quality and learning potential.
According to reports, the written test and interview results of Peking University's independent enrollment examination each account for about 50%, and candidates can check through Peking University's enrollment network. In 2004, Peking University's independent enrollment can be admitted within 20 points of the local admission line. For those with excellent comprehensive quality and exceptional talent, the admission criteria can be relaxed appropriately after discussion and decision by the Admissions Committee of Peking University, and the standard of lowering scores is no longer limited to 20 points.
Beijing Normal University: Ability and mental health test candidates need to take the ability test and mental health scale test, which are divided into two papers. The person in charge of the Academic Affairs Office of Beijing Normal University said that these two tests are aimed at examining students' development potential and comprehensive quality, and the cultural subjects will be checked by the college entrance examination. The school hopes to select students with strong ability, great potential and sound psychology through psychological tests.
Fudan: Determine the scope through the written test. The school selects candidates through the written test, and works with the recommended students to determine whether they can be included in the scope of independent enrollment according to the results. The school pays more attention to the investigation of knowledge points.
Jiaotong University: The written test examines the knowledge points of various subjects. Independent enrollment is mainly based on winter camp, and students' mastery of knowledge points in various subjects is investigated.
East China Normal University: Pay attention to the comprehensive evaluation of candidates. After March 10, the assessment is divided into two stages: one is the assessment of Chinese, mathematics and foreign languages, with the subject education experts of East China Normal University as the chief examiner, focusing on assessing students' mastery of basic knowledge, comprehensive ability and innovation potential; Two, according to the above assessment results, secondary school recommended materials, student award-winning materials, social work experience, specialty certification materials. The expert committee conducts a comprehensive evaluation of students including interviews to determine their independent admission qualifications.
The school emphasizes that independent enrollment is not to recruit students with high scores, nor is it to let candidates take advantage of the loopholes. Otherwise, independent enrollment will be thoroughly studied like ordinary college entrance examination, and become a way for candidates to get preferential points.
East China University of Science and Technology: After the bottom-up test, review the candidates to participate in the bottom-up test organized by the school. The subjects are mathematics, physics, chemistry and English, and the initial test is conducted according to the bottom-up results. After the qualified candidates are reviewed by the school expert review group, the school admissions Committee will determine the list of candidates with independent enrollment qualifications.
It is understood that before March 1, the pilot schools submitted the work plan for independent selection and admission in 2004 to the Ministry of Education. Before April 15, submit the list of students who have passed the test in our school and obtained the qualification of independent selection and admission. From May 1 day, the relevant contents will be publicized on China Higher Education Student Information Network (www.chsi.com.cn). Before July 3 1, submit the actual results and analysis report of independent selection and admission in our school.
In addition, starting from this year, art students and sports students will no longer be included in the scope of independent selection and admission.
