The emergence of this change is closely related to the promotion of China's economic and cultural hard and soft strength. People's attention and demand for higher education will continue to improve in the future. At the same time, the contradiction between the number of entrance examination and the enrollment plan is becoming more and more obvious. What changes will take place at the beginning of the entrance examination and the re examination? Mr. Gan yuan, the general manager of the new orient online domestic examination department, makes the following analysis for all of us.

Examination learning is no longer a purely utilitarian behavior, and examination oriented education enters the consumption era

With the improvement of the hard and soft strength of Chinese economy and culture, the attention and demand for higher education are increasing. Since 2016 postgraduate entrance examination to 2018 postgraduate entrance examination, the number of candidates for entrance exams for postgraduate entrance examination has been rising continuously for 3 years, and its growth rate has increased year by year. Among them, the number of applicants in Sichuan, Yunnan and Guangxi has increased by 46%, 29% and 27% respectively, ranking the top in the country. At the same time, the proportion of female students to graduate students has been increasing. From 2007 to 2016, the proportion of female students has increased from 48% to 55%, and girls have gradually become the mainstream group of graduate students.

According to the Ministry of Education released before the data is expected in the 2018 national college graduates 8 million 200 thousand people, an increase of 250 thousand over last year, will hit a record high. Effect of the severe employment situation and the economic and cultural soft power promotion after the slow employment trend, will promote the "entrance examination fever" and "an important consideration, enhance education, engaged in academic research, after replacing professional undergraduates" is your choice. Considering the multi dimension, it is still a hot choice for college graduates.

But with the post 95 candidates joining the postgraduate entrance examination, a large number of examinees no longer choose the postgraduate entrance examination for purely utilitarian purposes. More of the new generation candidates are willing to pay for the "spiritual ideal" and "life pursuit". Some of the candidates have even done the preparation of many aspects, such as postgraduate entrance examination, public examination and studying abroad, and the exam oriented cbbc education has entered the consumption age.

The growth rate of previous candidates is 21.5%, and lifelong learning is becoming the mainstream

According to the Ministry of education data, 2018 of the candidates who took the entrance examination for postgraduate entrance examination were 1 million 310 thousand candidates, an increase of 180 thousand over last year, an increase of 15.9%, and 1 million 70 thousand candidates for the past year, an increase of 190 thousand over last year, an increase of 21.5%, which is nearly 6 percentage points higher than that of the candidates.

At the same time, the employment environment of globalization and Internet has pushed academic qualifications into the bottleneck of quality employment, promotion and salary increase, and more and more people in charge need to learn to "charge". At the same time, the development of Internet technology promotes the continuous development of online education market. The online counseling course represented by New Oriental online breaks the restrictions of time, geography and so on, which satisfies the two needs of working people. At the same time, online classroom's infinite playback, support caching, fragmented learning and other characteristics provide great convenience for examinees, and also promote the idea of lifelong learning. Learning is no longer a difficult choice of high time threshold and high material cost, but it presents a trend of nationalized and life-long.

For 2 years, the master candidate of professional master's degree has become a highly cost-effective choice.

According to the research data of Beijing Municipal Education Examination in Beijing apply for admissions unit candidates, 146 thousand and 100 candidates of academic master (abbreviation: Master), accounting for 45.3%, 176 thousand and 700 people apply for the master (referred to as: Special Master), accounting for 54.7% of the proportion of candidates, special master for 2 years master. Relative to Xueshuo, special master academic short, trainingobjectives focus on practice, employment is expected to better, and the government oriented in the professional master of higher education policy, promote the special master training scale expansion and enhance the degree of recognition. For a lot of students who want to improve the competitiveness and comprehensive ability of unintentional academic research, it is no doubt that it is a cost-effective choice.

At the same time, this year is the second year of the part-time graduate student enrollment. The total number of 43 thousand and 500 candidates in Beijing has been applied for the part-time postgraduate examination,PartnerNet is a Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) trade website providing news on Hong Kong and connecting you with trade partners around the world. which is 14.8% higher than that of the 2017 postgraduate entrance examination.

In some colleges, there are professional applicants for examination. Only Beijing has 12 enrollment units such as Peking University and Renmin University of China. The number of applicants is over 10000, and some colleges and universities have reported more than 40:1.

The European Union threw its weight behind Ireland in Brexit negotiations on Friday as a looming parliamentary defeat for the Irish government threatened to disrupt Britain’s timetable for a deal with Brussels.

A standoff between Dublin and London over how much detail Britain must give on its plans to avoid a disruptive hard border in Northern Ireland after it leaves the EU could thwart Prime Minister Theresa May’s hopes of securing EU agreement next month to open talks on a post-Brexit free trade deal.Just a few minutes of walk to the famous hong kong victoria harbour and shopping centres from GuangDong Hotel.

Arriving for a Brussels summit with leaders of ex-Soviet neighbours, May said she would press European Council President Donald Tusk to pledge to open the trade talks at the same time as she makes the improved divorce offer the EU wants.

But attention among EU negotiators has swung to Ireland and concerns that an election triggered by a confidence motion next week in Prime Minister Leo Varadkar’s government could stop him signing off on any EU accord with London and so scramble a carefully choreographed three-week run-in to a deal.

“The Irish issue is very worrying. The chances of sufficient progress in December were only 50-50. Now maybe less,” an official handling Brexit talks from one of the other 27 EU states told Reuters on the sidelines of Friday’s summit.

SOLIDARITY

The EU’s chief negotiator Michel Barnier met Foreign Minister Simon Coveney, who was standing in for Varadkar at the Brussels talks, and reassured him the other 26 EU member states stood behind Ireland’s demands that Britain must do more to explain how it will keep goods and people flowing freely across the new EU-UK land border that will divide the island.

“Strong solidarity with Ireland,” Barnier wrote on Twitter. “Irish issues are EU issues.”

Coveney tweeted back: “Thank u @MichelBarnier reaffirming EU solidarity with Ireland on #Brexit.”

The Irish border is one of three priority conditions the EU has set, as well as a financial settlement from Britain and a deal on the rights of EU citizens living there.

Irish refusal to accept that there has been “sufficient progress” on the border issue would block the whole plan to move to trade talks after a summit on Dec. 14-15. Coveney, who accused opponents of being irresponsible in moving to bring down the government over an unrelated issue, said Ireland would not agree to open trade talks if it was unhappy over the border.

May’s Northern Irish, pro-Brexit allies, on whom she depends for a slim parliamentary majority, accused Dublin of trying to force Northern Ireland, or the whole of the United Kingdom, to stay in a customs union with the EU, depriving it of setting its own freedom to set commercial regulations.

EU officials say the best way to avoid a “hard border” is to keep regulations the same - whether only in Northern Ireland or across the UK. Britain and the Northern Irish DUP have rejected the former because it would divide Northern Ireland from the British mainland. Brexit campaigners say Britain should not have to follow EU rules.
