CET-4 and CET-6 are national English tests administered by the Ministry of Education, and almost all college students will take part in them. Most schools link the results of CET-4 with the issuance of degree certificates, so the importance of this exam goes without saying. In addition, CET-4 and CET-6 are also an important reference for some enterprises to recruit, especially foreign companies and some enterprises that need English, so everyone must review for the exam.
Generally speaking, many schools stipulate that you can only start to apply for the exam in your sophomore year, and very few schools can take the exam in their freshman year. I suggest you apply for the exam early, and don't put it off until junior year and senior year. It's best if you can take the freshman exam, because you just passed the college entrance examination and everyone's basic knowledge is solid. As long as you review carefully, it is easy to pass the exam. Non-English majors have basically no English classes after their junior year. At this time, it is easy to forget the knowledge points and the English level will drop, so take the exam while there is English class.
Transfer to professional examination
After one semester's study, if you are dissatisfied with your major, don't like your major, or have a major that you really want to study, you can apply for it in the next semester. At this time, you may have to face the exam of changing majors.
Some universities decide the number of places to change majors according to their usual grades and rankings, so there is no examination for changing majors. Some schools will organize examinations in a unified way and determine the number of places according to the results of professional examinations. If you want to change your major, you need to be prepared.
Various qualification certificate examinations
For students who have their own career plans and goals in the future, they can take some corresponding qualification examinations, such as teacher qualification certificate, accounting certificate, Putonghua certificate and so on. Schools sometimes organize class exams in a unified way, and students can seize this opportunity to take the exams. If there is no unified organization, they can also take the exam themselves in their spare time.
It is relatively easy to take these certificates at school. If you want to take the exam after graduation, you will find that you have no energy, time is not as loose as when you went to school, and your learning ability is not as good as before, and it is even more difficult to take the exam.
Postgraduate entrance examination/postgraduate entrance examination
In recent years, the job-hunting pressure of undergraduate graduates is increasing, and now more and more students choose to take the postgraduate entrance examination. Postgraduate entrance examination is usually at the end of February or 10, 65438. It's not that easy to pass smoothly. About 3 million people apply for graduate students every year, but the number of people who are finally admitted is limited. Some people haven't taken the exam for two or three years in a row. Therefore, the postgraduate entrance examination must be reviewed early and carefully prepared.
