Little Qingmei
For several months, many cities such as Changsha, Chengdu, Wuhan have introduced measures such as giving houses, household registration, and money to attract college graduates. In fact, as early as when facing the college entrance examination filling out application form, every friend who hovers around the college entrance examination will encounter similar problems: Should I choose a first-tier university in a second- and third-tier city, or a second-tier university in a first-tier city like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen?
I have also encountered such a problem. I scored 21 points in the college entrance examination that year. I originally planned to apply for a university in Beijing, but because of my poor grades, I could not choose a better university in Beijing, so I could only choose a better university in the second grade.
Therefore, after listening to the opinions of his family, he chose a 211 university in a second-tier city, and graduated and went to work in Beijing. I have also regretted not choosing Beijing from the beginning, but instead went in the opposite direction.
For those who take the college entrance examination, applying for a volunteer is a confusing issue
I finally realized that first-tier cities in second- and third-tier cities are second-tier cities. The essence of this problem is to choose "first-tier cities" and "first-second-tier cities". Everyone has their own different considerations about this issue, and we have made a comparison and analysis on this.
First-tier cities and second-tier cities What can bring to you?
Many people say, "Choose a university is choosing a city." When it comes to choosing universities, these people will prefer to choose first-tier cities. In their eyes, the city's resource advantages are greater than the school's academic advantages.
Take the first-tier cities of Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou as an example. In the list of universities released by the Ministry of Education in 2017, there are 92 universities in Beijing and 67 undergraduate colleges (including first, second and third colleges); 64 universities in Shanghai and 38 undergraduate colleges; 83 universities in Guangzhou and 36 undergraduate colleges.
These universities will implement "alliance" according to different school characteristics. Students can learn across schools and to a certain extent educational resources can be shared.
First-tier cities have resources that second- and third-tier cities do not have
Xiao Nan originally studied in a second-tier university, but she often goes to Peking University to take classes.
Generally, teachers welcome students to come and take the class. There is no difference between first- and second-tier cities in the classroom. Everyone enjoys the educational resources of first-tier cities together, which is a benefit that second-tier cities do not have.
In a big city like Beijing, you can study at the National Library on weekends, go to 798 to see exhibitions, go to Sanlitun to meet various celebrities and listen to professional lectures. There are too many public resources available to you in this city. In addition, big cities also provide a lot of internships and job opportunities.
According to incomplete statistics, there are 60 million registered companies nationwide, and 8 million in Beijing alone. Beijing is a political and cultural center, and various industries such as the Internet, film and television media, and real estate are concentrated in Beijing. Shanghai is an economic and financial center, and investment banks, financial companies, and cultural industries are all very developed.
is here, it is easy to find internships and job opportunities, and it is also easy to work with great people. Every winter and summer vacation, first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou will welcome a large number of students studying in second- and third-tier cities. They choose to come here for internships during holidays to find better jobs for themselves. and studying locally can save a lot of living transportation costs.
At the same time, this kind of experience can also be "gilded" to your resume. Even if you return to work in second- and third-tier cities in the future, your internship experience in first-tier cities will make it easy for them to stand out and gain greater room for choice. If you choose to study in a first-tier city from the beginning, you can start an internship in a large company from the beginning of your freshman year to increase your horizons.
Many people will give priority to finding employment in first-tier cities after graduation
Xiao Xue is now a junior, but has internships in traditional media such as China Securities Journal, Internet companies Sina NetEase, and startup companies logic thinking. The position he has different internships, from intern reporters to operations, to products, and try all the jobs he is interested in.
According to his words, "I only know if I like it after trying it. I can't wait until I graduate to try and make mistakes." This not only enriches my internship experience, but also increases my knowledge. I have experienced different corporate cultures when I have been with different companies, and I am relatively mature. By the time he graduates, these experiences will provide him with more choices, and only big cities can give them.
No matter which city graduates are, they will be more inclined to go to first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. However, graduates who study in this city will be more likely to stay in their school to work. Take 2016 as an example. The proportion of employment in Beijing after graduation from Renmin University of China and Beijing University of Chemical Technology has exceeded 50%, while the proportion of employment in Beijing for graduate students has exceeded 60%.
report shows that 82.66% of fresh graduates choose to find employment in other places, of which nearly 40% choose to stay in the city where the university is located; the proportion of people who choose to return to their hometown is only 17.34%. The proportion of people who choose first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen has reached 43.75%.
That is to say, if you choose to study in a first-tier city, the probability of staying in a first-tier city to work is more than 50%. There are many job opportunities in big cities and relatively high salaries. What are the reasons not to choose to stay?
Educational Advantages: How important is a one-tier university
For some people, the reason why education is more important than cities is that education is the stepping stone to the future.
Is this reasonable for employers to set academic thresholds? The editor-in-chief of a certain game media said: In the past, employees generally had low education because there were few talents at that time. Now I have the requirements for education to reduce the risk of recruiting people. I have met many people, and I can't even meet basic logical thinking and expression skills. How can I recruit this kind of person? Of course, has a low education, but with capable talents, each company will definitely have a special channel for . Education is not a hard standard.
Education is an invisible tag in some things, and some companies will also refer to their academic qualifications when setting salary. When employees are promoted, education is also a reference standard.
In job hunting, education is a standard for consideration for enterprises
Of course, some people may say that although the first-tier cities in second-tier cities are not as competitive as the second-tier cities in first-tier cities, this school is a real first-tier, and the school's educational resources and faculty are essentially different from second-tier schools.
First-tier universities in second-tier cities still have many excellent teachers and scholars, and the resources and vision they can provide to students should not be underestimated.
For some graduates who have subject requirements but cannot enter the top majors, some schools with high majors in second-tier cities are still the best choice for many people. After all, majors sometimes play a decisive role in the direction of employment.
Many first-tier universities in second-tier cities have good exchanges and cooperation with foreign universities, and students can apply for exchanges abroad. Moreover, the number of admissions for first-tier schools for postgraduate education is much higher than that of second-tier schools. If you choose a good first-tier school, the chances of admissions for postgraduate education will be greater, and you can also be admitted to a better key university.
Many large companies are still very interested in secondary education level
A Yuan studied in a second-tier school in Shanghai. Because the school did not have the opportunity to be admitted to the postgraduate entrance examination, all four roommates in the dormitory chose to take the postgraduate entrance examination, but only one of them passed the exam; while the first-tier school in a second-tier city I studied had a celebrity dormitory, and all four of them were admitted to the 985 colleges.
This is the advantage of first-class universities. If you want to study for a postgraduate degree, the support a university can provide is greater than the resources provided by the city.
This is a difficult choice
Those friends who once faced the same choice, how are they now?
I interviewed people who were once in a dilemma on school selection. Each of us has a say in this matter.
@Summer 1st-tier city. I am currently working in an Internet company in Chengdu. I wanted to go to Shanghai at that time and liked Fudan University , but I didn’t do well in the college entrance examination. I was in a dilemma when I applied for college. After a lot of trouble, I chose the first-tier city of insurance. After graduation, I went back to Chengdu to find a job. The overall situation was relatively smooth. After graduation, many students stayed to work locally, but at that time they would still be confused about whether to stay locally, go home or go to first-tier cities. You will find that this choice is not finished at all.
@Xiaoshu Shanghai Second Post I am currently working for an Internet company in Beijing
I have been studying for a year and did not do well in the first year, so I can only go to a local third post. My family strongly asked me to study in big cities, so I repeated the year and got an entrance exam for a second in Shanghai. Shanghai is indeed different from my family. During the four years I studied in Shanghai, I have completely changed from appearance to mind. After graduation, I worked in Beijing. I am very grateful for my four years of experience in Shanghai. It completely reshapes me. So I think that as long as you break through the restrictions and come to a big city to accept changes, there will be no restrictions in life.
@Zhijiang Second-tier City Grade 2. Currently working in a company in Beijing
. My target is a university in Beijing, but I failed the exam, so I had to study the second-tier locally at home. Later, I took the postgraduate entrance examination and took the exam again, but I still failed, so I came to work in Beijing directly. I have a yearning for big cities, but I think my university is also very good. But I would think that if I had gone to Beijing to study for a university, it might be easier to do something now.
So, everyone has their own considerations when choosing where to go to and what university to go to.
In terms of teaching staff, the first-tier universities in second- and third-tier cities are not necessarily worse than the second-tier universities in first-tier cities. In contrast, the atmosphere of first-tier universities in second- and third-tier cities may also be better than that of second-tier universities in first-tier cities.
Considering the cost of living, second- and third-tier cities are lower than first-tier cities, but at the same time, the richness of entertainment life will be lower than that of first-tier cities.
From the perspective of urban development level, second- and third-tier cities are indeed not as good as first-tier cities. Therefore, from the perspective of employment, first-tier cities have greater development space, better platforms, more jobs and even higher salaries.
From the perspective of real development, China's second- and third-tier cities are developing rapidly, and more talents are needed to support this period. In the past one or two years, second- and third-tier cities have introduced better talent policies and housing purchase policies to retain talents, which is very attractive compared to first-tier cities. What do Zhihu netizens say?
Regarding this question, Tuantuan asked a question on Zhihu and received many answers from netizens!
Boss add a page:
1. To a certain extent, studying in a university is more important than school;
2. The city determines the people you come into contact with, and the school determines your knowledge;
3. Studying in a remote and backward place will most likely be infected by the local backward ideas;
4. To some extent, knowledge is greater than knowledge, except for prestigious schools.
X, doctor
I recommend first-class books in second-tier cities.
First of all, everyone has different definitions of success. Some people complete the leap from rural to urban areas and fulfill their parents' expectations, while others have to complete some achievements. At least they have to manage a team of thousands of people to be considered a little successful.
So if you absolutely ask which one is better, it will definitely be unobjective. We can only look at it from a relative latitude.
First of all, of course, is a relatively educational qualification.
In other words, when the factor of diploma must be taken into account, those who choose first-tier cities must have the attractiveness of first-tier cities far exceeds that of diplomas.
But the question is, can second-tier cities in first-tier cities be attractive in first-tier cities?
study in first-tier cities, but only study in college in first-tier cities.
The current diploma has a great impact on employment, which is far superior to others in most cases. If we discuss the second-tier universities in first-tier cities and first-tier cities, I think there is basically no comparison.
Anonymous user:
still depends on personal weighing. No matter which city you go to, no matter which university you go to, there is no absolutely correct answer. The learning environment of a university is very important, and the economic construction and cultural atmosphere of the city cannot be ignored. However, the most important thing is yourself. Don’t let down your youth and work hard everywhere!
If your college entrance examination scores happen to be hovering at the main line, what would you choose?
