"The tutor said to choose students with spiritual potential, but the interview time is so short. If you can talk to your tutor in advance and show yourself, it is equivalent to grabbing an interview opportunity. " This is the common idea of many people who take part in the postgraduate entrance examination, so some "human secrets" on how to "please" the tutor began to spread on the Internet, and even the "hidden rules" of the postgraduate entrance examination were circulated among the people: foreign students can't compete with their own students, but their tutors once, and they can't compete with the right tutors to give gifts once ... Is this really the case?

Lesson: How many dreams can you squander?

Lesson 65438 +0: There are too many tutors to contact, which makes people feel too scheming.

A classmate applied for a postgraduate degree in a university in Beijing. In order to increase her chances of success, she came to school two weeks before the second interview, intending to pave the way for meeting her tutor. Through her classmates and friends in Beijing, she found her brothers and sisters studying in our school and visited them respectively to learn about all aspects of the department. Next, I began to go to graduate classes with my brothers and sisters, and I made great efforts to meet several tutors.

In this regard, her preparation is sufficient, but she is still uneasy and continues to find a relationship: ask her brothers and sisters for the contact information of the tutor and let them take her to see the tutor. Of course, no one wants to take her in the end. So before the second interview, she began to call her tutor, leave her contact information, introduce herself, and expressed her hope to be their graduate student. Most tutors' answers depend on her performance in the second interview. So she put down her heart: at least one tutor will want me. She was not nervous at all during the interview. After all, she has attended most of her tutors' classes and is very calm when answering questions. The tutors are also very satisfied with her performance, and several want to enroll her. But soon, the situation changed dramatically-one tutor mentioned that he had contacted him before, and several other tutors immediately said that they had called them. As soon as the tutors discussed it, they felt that the student was too scheming and not pure enough, and finally * * * decided not to admit her.

Lesson 2: The target tutor is not clear, which leads to "collapse"

A student majoring in science and agriculture applied for a master's degree in finance. Unfortunately, I didn't enter the second interview list and began to consider the adjustment. Finally, when she learned about the graduate students of a university in Wuhan, she contacted them in a hurry. Because in Zhengzhou, she sent emails to the tutors in the institute, explained her situation in each email, and sincerely expressed her students who wanted to be tutors. At first, she successfully received letters from several tutors saying that she was very welcome to go for an interview. However, when the re-examination list of the Agricultural College came out, she found that she did not have herself. She called for advice, and the Minister of Education said she was "devastated".

Lesson 3: If you take the liberty to give a gift, a bottle of vinegar may be a mistake.

Shanxi examinee, who won the second place in a university research institute for the first time, wants to visit the teacher because of poor economic conditions. As a result, he sent a few bottles of native products of his hometown-Shanxi mature vinegar, and the second interview was finally brushed down. Afterwards, Zhang Wei reflected that the problem might lie in the special products he sent. Maybe he didn't mean to be jealous, but worried that the teacher would "borrow the scenery to make love" ...

Lesson 4: If you talk too much, you will lose, especially if you don't pretend to understand.

Another candidate's experience of seeing a tutor can be described as "unprecedented". The tutor asked him: What books have you read recently? He said I saw XXX. The tutor asked again: Who else have you read about it? A: I read XXX, but that one is not as good as the last one I read. So he criticized it to show his profound understanding of the academic problems of this major. Who knows, the author of that book was written by the professor's late tutor, so naturally there is no hope.

Experience: This is how the "predecessors" defeated the enemy.

Experience 1: Go to school.

Yuanyuan, a student from a university in Northeast China, applied for a university in South China. She got a high grade in the initial test and wanted to do research with her tutor, but she was distressed to hear that her tutor only liked to accept male students. Half a month before the second interview, she hurried to school and began to attend classes in class, and actively participated in classroom discussions and answered questions. The tutor gradually got to know her and appreciated her. Later, Yuan Yuan found a tutor after class to show his wish. The tutor said that if she did well in the interview, she would consider accepting her. Finally, she was lucky enough to get what she wanted.

Experience 2: Ask the teacher actively.

Li Hui got good grades in undergraduate course, ranking first in his major, so he studied very hard. When the new syllabus came down in July, she found another reference book added. It is said that the author is a school teacher and has just returned from Germany. He has a high academic level and is well informed. But the new book looks difficult. Although Li Hui studied it from beginning to end, he still didn't feel anything. Fortunately, the teacher left his mailbox at the back of the preface. After watching it for the second time, she sent some of her doubts to the teacher and received a reply soon. The teacher praised her for studying hard and answered her doubts. In the following review, she often sends emails to the teacher about the problems in the book (starting with the second email, she signed her name), and each letter is quickly answered by the teacher. Gradually, she was attracted by her teacher's extensive knowledge and peaceful attitude, and she was eager to learn from her teacher.

After the initial test, her grades were good, so one week before the second test, she came to the school she applied for, sent an email to the teacher, reported her grades, and explained that she had come to the school and wanted to meet the teacher. The teacher promised her to meet him in the office. After the meeting, her tone was very friendly. I asked her about her undergraduate study and chatted casually about things she was interested in academically. Shortly after the interview, she learned that her dream had come true.

Experience 3: study the tutor's works, and be sincere and polite in words and deeds.

Yang Xin, a boy from a famous tea town, applied for a popular major in a famous university. Fortunately, his high school classmate's brother is studying in the school and major he intends to apply for. His senior brother's tutor is one of the authors of professional reference books and an old hand in this field. It's lucky to do research with such a tutor. So Yang Xin began to contact his elder brother very early. He also patiently answered the questions and puzzles he encountered in the comments from the perspective of an experienced person. In addition, Yang Xin studied hard and got good results in the initial test, ranking above average. After the initial test, he began to search for the tutor's monographs and papers on the Internet and studied them carefully.

Half a month before the second interview, Yang Xin planned to go to the school where he applied for the exam and bring two packs of tea to his brother. After arriving at school, my brother thanked Yang Xin for his gift and casually mentioned that he didn't drink much tea, but his tutor liked it very much. This made Yang Xin excited. He talked a lot with his brother, learned something about his mentor, and told him that he really wanted to meet his mentor. Brother feels that direct introduction is not appropriate, so he can contact the tutor's office. The next day, Yang Xin went to the office to see her tutor and brought tea. The tutor was not very enthusiastic about his sudden visit at first, but when he heard that Yang Xin had studied his own monograph, his face immediately cleared up. After talking about academic issues, Yang Xin also talked about his hometown and tea. The tutor also talked about his preferences with great interest, and finally accepted the tea he brought. Naturally, Yang Xin finally became a famous teacher.

Apply to be a tutor assistant before the second interview.

Xiao Wang, a psychology student, wants to apply for many tutor topics. One month before the second interview, he went to school to learn about the situation from the tutor's students. The students all said that they have been very busy recently, helping the tutor to do experiments on a certain topic. So he deliberately spent a few days asking his future brothers and sisters for advice. After getting familiar with everyone, she gently put forward the idea of letting them take it to help with the experiment. One of them suggested asking the tutor first. The tutor said that there were just not enough people, so let him try. Results Xiao Wang Gang studied with his tutor for almost a month before the second interview. During the period, the tutor also liked this modest and studious student very much, and he was admitted soon after the interview.
