Chapter 689 - All kinds of absolute self-confidence
In the evening, Tao Yunfeng complained to Huo Jinliang that because she was going to give birth in the examination room, she had a strong sense of presence between the candidates and the faculty and staff of the graduate school department. If, after the retest, she loses, it will be really embarrassing.
"Then when you get admitted, then you really have a sense of existence!" Huo Jinliang thought that on the day Tao Yunfeng gave birth, there were reporters who followed him to the hospital for an interview, it is conceivable that the fact that she was going to give birth to a child in the examination room is indeed a gossip that some people love to watch.
However, Tao Yunfeng's sense of presence is irrelevant, and the retest that starts tomorrow is the main topic!
Tomorrow morning's professional theory, the test is hard kung fu, there is no solid foundation, and it is more difficult to do well. The professional interview in the afternoon is not only about the professional foundation and theory, but also about the individual's on-the-spot language organization and expression ability. The interview process is just like a job interview, the interview time is short, but the sentence is the key, and the interviewee will never guess what various questions the interviewer will ask. The interview time for the re-examination is also relatively short, only about 15 to 20 minutes for each person, but the content and form of the interview are varied, and it is not easy to deal with various questions from the teacher in this short period of time, and at the same time to show their professional level and ability, and to win the teacher's affirmation.
Tomorrow is Saturday, Huo Jinliang has a weekend off, and asked Tao Yunfeng: "Wife, do you want to accompany you to the retest tomorrow?"
"It's better not to, I can do it myself!" Tao Yunfeng shook her head and asked Huo Jinliang to accompany her to the retest, she would have psychological pressure.
It's still early, and Tao Yunfeng wants Huo Jinliang to play the interview teacher and rehearse the interview process.
worked hard until the last moment, even if she was brushed down, although it was a pity, she also asked with a clear conscience.
The next morning, when Tao Yunfeng went out, Huo Jinliang went downstairs with her in order to cheer her up. Before she got into the car, give her a bear hug and encourage her: "Come on, wife! You must be confident, you must have all kinds of absolute self-confidence! If you are confident, you will have an aura and a score! Come on, you can definitely do it!"
Tao Yunfeng also responded confidently: "Well, no problem, I can do it!"
After the professional theory test in the morning, Tao Yunfeng felt okay. She has a practical foundation and is well prepared, so she has no problem in theory.
The professional interview in the afternoon was conducted according to the ranking of comprehensive results, and Tao Yunfeng was the last at the end of the crane, and the interview was also ranked last. She went early in the afternoon, but waited late, and after lunch, she found a place to sit for a while, and went early, and waited until the end.
Because she was at the end of the line, when she saw the candidates in front of her come out, she asked a few questions, asked the candidates in front, and the teacher asked any questions. Maybe the teacher of the interview will draw the questions repeatedly, and when she takes the test, she will draw the questions answered by the candidates in front of her.
Before going to bed last night, Tao Yunfeng was still a little nervous, and now she was about to enter the examination room, but she was very calm, and said in her heart that it would be a project bidding, and the interview would be like a bidding speech.
The door of the interview room was ajar, Tao Yunfeng walked to the door, took a deep breath, and then raised her hand to knock on the door, and heard the teacher inside say "Please come in", so she pushed the door in.
As soon as she entered the door, Tao Yunfeng saw at a glance the mentor Wang Yan she had contacted, and the professor Wu Xiaoguang, who went to see her yesterday because of gossip.
In addition to these two people she knew, there were four other teachers, and she didn't know who they were.
Mentor Wang Yan's person and her name are difficult to associate together. She is a middle-aged woman in her forties, with a little fat figure and curly hair, but her face looks pleasant, and her voice is clear and smooth, which makes people feel quite gentle.
Many candidates will go to the tutor's class in advance, but Tao Yunfeng is not sure whether his grades are enough to be online, except for contacting the teacher related to the exam admissions, he did not choose to contact the tutor in advance. After seeing the re-examination list, because it was the last place, this ranking was very dangerous, so she called her professional tutor Wang Yan.
Before making the call, Tao Yunfeng also deliberately checked some relevant information about Wang Yan, and first knew himself and his opponent.
On the phone, Tao Yunfeng directly introduced herself, expressed her desire to go to graduate school, and then hoped that she would remind her how to prepare for the re-examination. But Wang Yan may be busy, and after listening to her introduction, she didn't continue to ask Tao Yunfeng about the situation, but just responded very officially, asking her to prepare for the retest.
After that, Tao Yunfeng sent another email to Wang Yan, hoping that she would recommend some professional books or literature, and to her delight, she quickly received Wang Yan's reply and sent several papers. Tao Yunfeng carefully read Wang Yan's paper, and if he had questions that he didn't understand, or had his own ideas, he sent an email to communicate with her. Wang Yan replied to the email and patiently answered her questions.
After Tao Yunfeng entered, he bowed slightly and greeted the teachers. After receiving a nod of approval from the teachers, she sat down in the designated position.
With a slight smile on her face as she faced the teachers who were about to ask all kinds of questions, she looked as if she was ready and confident.
Before the re-examination, Huo Jinliang analyzed with her the experience of the seniors in the postgraduate entrance examination, what kind of graduate students the tutor basically wants: first, look at the character. The duty of being a human being is kind, upright, responsible, without obvious character problems, enterprising, tolerant, and energetic. On the basis of the previous one, helpful, generous and humorous, careful and independent, it is definitely a plus. The second is to look at ability. Basic life skills, learning skills, must have. Then there are hands-on skills, thinking skills, cooperation skills, and presentation skills. The last item is to look at the fate, don't let the interview scene be embarrassing, and create a more harmonious interview atmosphere.
However, in just 15 to 20 minutes, it is not possible to show the above correlation, and it is still necessary to extract some key points. When Tao Yunfeng and Huo Jinliang practiced at home, it was so that she could express herself as much as possible in just twenty minutes, but she also had to pay attention to moderation.
After sitting down, the teacher who interviewed Tao Yunfeng didn't ask Tao Yunfeng to introduce herself, so he adjusted the atmosphere and asked her with a smile: "Tao Yunfeng?
When she came to report yesterday, she was said so, Tao Yunfeng was still a little embarrassed, today she is used to it, she can talk and laugh in the face, nodded at the teacher, and said with a smile: "Yes, I am the candidate who is going to have a child in the middle of the second major exam." My son is so naughty, he has to come out to see the world ten days before the due date, just in time for the exam, and the family jokingly calls him a graduate student. ”
Her answer, especially after everyone in the family jokingly called his son a graduate student, the other teachers couldn't help but smile.
After answering this question, the atmosphere of the interview becomes lively.
Another teacher asked her again: "Your previous exam scores are very good, basically all of them are high scores, and the score of major 2 is low because you have to have a child halfway through the exam." Assuming that you successfully pass the major 2 exam, how many points do you think you can get?"
Tao Yunfeng has also thought about this hypothesis, and has thought about it more than once.
If she successfully passed the last exam, completed the drawings, and wrote the design instructions in a more detailed and complete manner, how many points might she get in the end?
Think about her 131 points in the first major exam, and left the field in the middle of the second major exam, and there are still 106 points, if she can successfully complete the exam, she has the confidence and will definitely get a high score.
Listening to the teacher's question now, Tao Yunfeng was a little modest, but he also replied confidently: "I see that someone with the highest score has scored 144 points, I don't dare to think about this score, but if I can successfully complete the test, 135 points should be there." ”
It's just a hypothetical question, and even if she says she thinks she can get 144 points, it's not too much, because she has a good score ahead of her. But she said that she didn't dare to think about 144 points, and she was a little modest, and she was confident that 135 points could be obtained.
The teacher who asked her nodded, and based on her previous grades, she thought that if she scored 135 points, she should be able to get it.
Then another teacher asked her, why did she work for several years, have children, and have to go to graduate school?
Tao Yunfeng thought that this question should be questioned, and he was prepared for it.
"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. Tao Yunfeng's answer, try to pay attention to order, so that the teachers do not think her words are too cumbersome, "Some people say that for the design industry, social experience and work experience are more important, and a three-year graduate degree is not necessarily more useful than three years of work experience." For fresh graduates majoring in design, the first three years of graduation are the most important, and three years is enough time for us to be familiar with any design field. I used to agree with these statements, but after working for a few years, I realized that there are some things that cannot be made up by work experience. Construction-related majors, structure, water supply and drainage, mechanical and electrical, HVAC, electrical, supervision, etc., must be studied indoors, and must master a certain foundation, and these are still strong technical and need to be systematically studied. I learned with questions based on practical experience after work. If I can be admitted to the F City Academy of Fine Arts, a well-known design school in China, I can combine my previous practical experience, under the guidance of the teachers, get better opportunities for further study, learn relevant professional theoretical knowledge more systematically and deeply, and have more systematic and in-depth theoretical guidance in future work practice. ”
In short, she has a practical foundation, and now that she finds that the theoretical guidance can't keep up, she wants to learn the theory. By the way, she also blew a sentence about the Academy of Fine Arts in F City, expressing her yearning for this school.
Even if she didn't want to work and go to graduate school to get by, her answer seemed very enterprising, which made several teachers nod with satisfaction.
Of course, it's not that she can't work, and she wants to go to graduate school again, but she really wants to study more systematically and deeply, improve her theoretical knowledge, broaden her horizons, and go more solidly and further on the road of design in the future.
