School Organizes Re-examination Qualification Review
The School will review the applicant's identity information, application information, and relevant materials, focusing on verifying the submitted materials related to scientific research innovations and competition awards. The School will organize expert panels to objectively and independently score the application materials of recommended students, forming review scores. The list of applicants eligible for the re-examination assessment will be selected based on these material review scores, prioritizing higher scores. The main scoring points for the material review include: ideological and political quality & moral character, academic performance & major ranking, scientific research ability & potential, comprehensive quality & honors/awards, material standardization & integrity, etc.
The School will promptly inform applicants whether their re-examination application is accepted and will send re-examination notices to those eligible via the "Recommendation Service System".
School Organizes Re-examination Assessment
The School will organize the re-examination assessment in batches based on the number of recommended student applicants.
Professional Foundation primarily assesses: disciplinary fundamental theories, professional skills, and experimental or practical abilities.
Professional Comprehensive primarily assesses: innovative consciousness & scientific thinking ability, comprehensive analysis ability, academic ability, and comprehensive quality.
Foreign Language Proficiency primarily assesses: foreign language application ability, reading & translation of professional foreign language literature, and oral proficiency.
Re-examination Score (full score 100) = Professional Foundation × 40% + Professional Comprehensive × 40% + Foreign Language Proficiency × 20%
(1) Re-examination Format
The re-examination format for recommended students admitted by the School is: on-site re-examination. Specific arrangements will be notified separately by the School.
(2) Re-examination Content
The re-examination method is an interview, mainly assessing the applicant's comprehensive qualities in all aspects, focusing on ideological and political quality & moral character, professional competence, research ability, innovative potential, scientific spirit, academic ethics, etc. The full score for the re-examination is 100 points, and a score of 60 or above is considered a pass.
