We are in the university selection process for 2018. So, what should be considered in this regard?
First of all, ask yourself and evaluate whether the job you will do suits your character. Research the profession you are thinking of doing in every aspect, weigh it with your whole body before actively starting your profession, and try to live it for a lifetime... Remember, you will be doing this profession throughout your life. Do you want to do a job you don't like for the rest of your life? Every morning on your way to work, you say, "Damn, is this again?" Of course, you do not want to spend your life cursing yourself by saying "I will do the job".
Choose professions that you love, will love and where you can "renew yourself while doing the job". You will do this job for years and this is important so that it does not turn into monotony.
Okay. money? Of course, money is essential for a good standard of living, but is money everything? Not... There are also people who quit the job they worked for years and started a new job, a new career, because they are unhappy while working in extremely high-earning jobs. That's why you should feel comfortable with every aspect of the profession you are going to do.
What Should You Pay Attention to?
When making your preferences, consider your order. Do not list your preferences from largest to smallest. There is no such thing as a dead choice. What is important is which department and university you want more.
It never, ever "holds". Do not choose a department, university or city that you do not want to write, saying "this is it, but let me write about it". Because usually it will be there, and you will have to study in a place you do not want. In compensation, at best, your score will decrease and you will lose a year.
PREFERENCE HOW SHOULD WE PREPARE THE LIST?
Divide your preference list into four groups and rank each group starting from the program you want the most.
In the 1st group
· There should be a list of dreams and ideals. .
· In this segment, you can also write places higher than your own ranking.
In the 2nd group,
Places that are close to your ranking and generally slightly above the ranking can be written. In this group, it would be beneficial to include sections with slightly lower rankings than the first group.
In the 3rd group
Episodes that are suitable for your ranking and below your ranking can be written. Those with lower rankings than the sections in the 2nd group. You can include five sections.
The 4th group is your warranty preferences. In this group, you should include places lower than your ranking. If you do not plan to prepare for the exam again, you should pay close attention to your choices in this group.
While writing down the choices that are considered as guarantees, you should also consider the city in which the university you will enroll in is located, dormitory facilities, transportation and campus facilities.
But just for that reason. Do not write down a department or university that you do not want just for the sake of studying at a university. Remember, you will receive this education and do this profession.
Never, ever, a department that you do not want to go to just because its ranking is high, or a department that you want to go to very much. Do not write about the preference.
So, wouldn't placing the higher preferences in the first place and writing the main points at the bottom reduce our chances?
No! It does not reduce. Because among the students who want the same department, whether they write for the 24th choice or the 1st choice, the student with the higher ranking will be placed.
Should we choose the university or the department?
Is it more advantageous to study at a university because it has a good label? ? Or is it better to study in a good department at a less preferred university? After all, you graduate from the university, but you will be doing that profession. Therefore, your priority should be the department.
In other words, first the department, then the university, and then the city should be chosen.
IS IT A PRIVATE UNIVERSITY? IS IT A STATE UNIVERSITY?
When making this decision, it is useful to consider - What are your expectations from the university?
- The opportunities of the university
- Your financial means. .
However, it is also a fact that the facilities of some private universities are better than many state universities.
SHOULD WE PAY ATTENTION TO FOREIGN EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES?
-The study abroad opportunities provided by universities. Be sure to consider educational opportunities. Are there student exchange programs such as ERASMUS or ISEP? Taking advantage of such opportunities is not only advantageous for your CV, but also extremely important for improving yourself by getting to know different cultures.
- Private universities are one in this regard. It offers more opportunities than many state universities.
ATTENTION TO SPECIAL CONDITIONS!
The most overlooked point is Special conditions. Some departments may request additional evaluations such as height, weight, health report. In addition
- Where is the campus of the university you will choose?
. Where is the department you will study in? (Sometimes some faculties and departments may be located other than the main campus.)
. What are the dormitory facilities?
· How much are the dormitory fees?
· Is there a scholarship cut if it is a private university?
· Who is the academic staff?
· What are the technical facilities? (Library, dining hall, conference hall, gym, etc.)
Search for this information both in the guide and on social media. If possible, it will be more useful to go and see it on site. Ask the professors of the departments. You can get information and ask them whatever is on your mind.
Apart from this, it would be more appropriate to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages and decide accordingly when answering questions such as studying at a university with your family in the city where your family is located or studying in another city.
PROFESSIONS OF THE FUTURE?
There is no profession of the future, there are people of the future!
It is a fact that some departments are popular, but considering that you will be doing this job for 50-60 years, we see that it is more important to improve yourself in the profession. Therefore, what you will add to yourself at university is a criterion that needs to be taken into consideration as much as your diploma.
How many additional languages do you have the chance to learn? What are your chances of being a dual major and minor? Internship opportunities? It is important to evaluate details such as club activities.
The most important criterion when choosing a profession is the person's ability. We can only be happy in the profession we desire and are talented in.
But if you think you are good at the other one: Study in your talents. , do a minor branch if you are interested!
Pay attention to whether the profession you will choose is rigid or flexible.
It is important whether it is rigid or flexible in terms of finding a job, earning money, promotion, and developing the profession. from the criteria..
The selection process is a very stressful process. Especially this year, it is even more confusing with the system changes and combining of score types. Be sure to get support from experts in this field.. Ask questions.. Remember.. This is the most important decision you will ever make.
But nothing is more important or valuable than you..
Doing the job that makes you happy is more important than anything else.
May your choices make you happy :)
