Features: When filling out college applications for the college entrance exam, how to choose a major is a puzzle for every parent and student. Although high school students still have many uncertainties, based on their academic background and interests, combined with future employment and study abroad trends, a relatively optimized choice can still be found. The scores in a student's hands are like money, and everyone's money is limited and scarce. Although some students have high scores and can enter any major at Peking University or Tsinghua University, they may fall behind others in work or study abroad after four years simply because they did not choose the most optimized major. Such cases are not uncommon. For the vast majority of people, scores are not high enough to freely choose majors at prestigious universities like Peking University or Tsinghua University. For some, scores are particularly scarce. So, how can one use their limited scores to purchase the most ideal major? Based on interviews and research with human resources leaders from well-known domestic and international companies, Ph.D. students at British and American universities, and undergraduate and graduate students from various domestic schools, the HiAll team will reveal little-known information about majors, employment, and study abroad, helping you make informed choices. This book is a research report on the current status, characteristics, and future career paths of majors in universities. The creative team, based on extensive research and combining the future development and career prospects of high school students, analyzes the various factors that must be considered when choosing a major for the college entrance exam and provides detailed introductions to the current status, disciplinary characteristics, employment, and study abroad information of most majors in China, helping every parent and student facing major selection to make rational choices.
