  Two years of deep observation

  During the examination period, in addition to the general public's attention, art and sports candidates are also the "focus" of many candidates.

What are the new changes in arts and sports colleges and majors this year?

Where should candidates “focus” their attention when applying for the exam?

  Guangdong sports students are no longer all "science students"

  Different from last year’s “examination subjects can only be selected for science” in Guangdong sports students’ cultural subjects, according to the relevant documents issued by the Guangdong Provincial Education Examination Institute, the subjects of the physical and cultural examinations this year are the same as those of the general cultural subjects. Among them, physics is the preferred subject. Or history.

Due to the liberalization of subject selection, the boundaries have been broken, making it possible for physical education students to choose subjects based on their hobbies, strengths and advantages, and almost all colleges and universities have not proposed re-selection requirements, which to a large extent allows physical education candidates to " Free choice of subjects", cultural subjects scores are also more guaranteed.

  Consistent with the physical education category, under the new college entrance examination reform, the selection requirements for the arts category have changed from "science comprehensive" and "liberal arts comprehensive" to "preferred physics or history", and almost all colleges and universities uphold the previous principle of "both arts and sciences". Candidates for history and physics "will not refuse anyone."

However, it should be noted that some majors in some colleges and universities have restrictions on candidates' selection of subjects, and they have changed from last year. Taking Wuhan University as an example, the "design" of the unified examination batch of fine arts undergraduates was changed from last year. The requirement of "comprehensive liberal arts and science" is limited to candidates of "first choice physics" this year.

In addition, many colleges and universities require candidates to "prefer history", such as the art management and fine arts (art history) majors of the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts in advance batches of the fine arts category "passed the unified examination", as well as Hebei Normal University, Shanghai Normal University, Some majors in Hunan University of Science and Technology, Guangdong Ocean University and other institutions.

This reminds candidates that while understanding the general trend of subject selection, they must also pay attention to the "special" requirements of some majors of various colleges and universities, so that they can fully understand and apply for the exam with peace of mind.

  Calligraphy relies on the unified examination to realize the expansion of enrollment in Guangdong

  The reporter combed and found that the art and sports category in the "Guangdong Province 2021 General Colleges and Universities Professional Catalogue" added a new member this year-the "calligraphy category". In fact, this category of majors is not new, but just passed the "Art School Examination" this year. "Moving Independent" in the category.

The change in the catalog is behind the "fundamental" change in the admission of calligraphy majors. The admission mode has finally been "equaled" with art and music, and changed from a single "school exam" admission to "universal exam + school exam" The admission of "passed the unified examination" is moving towards a more systematic and standardized development direction.

For calligraphy candidates, this is undoubtedly good news.

It is understood that 2021 will be the first calligraphy test in Guangdong Province. If you pass the unified exam, you can apply for the new admission model of the corresponding college, bringing new opportunities to many calligraphy candidates.

  The calligraphy unified examination has also promoted a number of colleges and universities to add or expand calligraphy majors.

According to statistics from reporters, the enrollment plan for calligraphy majors in 2021 will be significantly expanded, with an increase of 12 colleges and universities in Guangdong. At the same time, a total of 246 people will be recruited in Guangdong for undergraduate and junior college batches (data does not include "Beijing Normal University"). It reached 157%.

  At the same time as the "big breakthrough" in the calligraphy category, the music and sports categories under the same catalog also appeared to be adjusted to meet the needs of the times.

In terms of professional technical examinations, the 2021 music examination in Guangdong Province will be subdivided into 3 categories, and the limited musical instruments will be increased from 18 to 33. This means that while the professional level refines the direction of talent training, we also try to give candidates more Large personalization options.

In addition, in this year's sports catalog, non-sports majors "mixed in".

The three words "journalism" in Guangzhou Physical Education College are impressively listed, which seems to be "incompatible" with other majors. Last year, the major only admitted general liberal arts and science candidates.

"The curriculum of journalism major not only follows the tradition of general journalism major, but also highlights the characteristics of sports news." The relevant staff member of the admissions office of Guangzhou Sport University said.

Even if the Guangzhou Institute of Physical Education is only one of the "special cases", we can still see the trend of cultivating complex and intersecting talents behind it.

  Pay attention to the college admission restrictions before applying for the exam

  The trend of cultivating compound and interdisciplinary talents in colleges and universities is not only adding bricks to the talent training system, but also presenting greater “challenges” to candidates.

Because this means that the theoretical and technical knowledge that candidates need to be exposed to after admission will be broader, and the difficulty of learning will increase accordingly.

"Candidates should pay attention to the differences in the curriculum and talent training programs of various colleges and universities when applying for the exam, and compare them with their own abilities, advantages and future employment directions." An agency volunteered to report an expert.

  In addition, candidates should also pay attention to the college admission restrictions when applying for the exam to avoid "slip gears" due to non-compliance after applying for the exam. For physical education candidates, many colleges and universities have put forward "feature requirements" for candidates. For example, all majors of Beijing Sport University have requirements for candidates' height and naked eyesight. There are also some colleges and universities that have not put forward relevant requirements, only saying that they "do not recruit color-blind and color-blind candidates. Some majors in the broad category will also have "feature requirements". Colleges and universities will generally indicate "regulations due to the requirements of the employer", such as the "Broadcasting and Hosting Major" for radio and television editing and directing. In addition to the characteristic requirements, some Mainland and Hong Kong cooperative schools also have "requirements" for the test takers' English scores. For example, Beijing Normal University-Hong Kong Baptist University United Nations College requires test takers to have "English scores ≥80".
