According to statistics, the new college entrance examination area students choose to choose physics can fill in more than 90% of the majors, which makes a lot of students who have chosen physics and their parents feel relieved. Exactly how to choose these enrollable majors? With the college entrance examination results, career planning, professional employment as a reference basis is not enough, subject ability and interest is also an important reference factor.
High school physics involves mechanics, electricity, electromagnetism, optics, the law of conservation of energy and other different modules of learning, the abstraction of each module is different, the thinking ability of students requires different. It is not a good physical performance can be arbitrary selection can be enrolled in the professional, but also need to specifically analyze the "good" in the where.
For example, mechanics is more intuitive than electricity. Students who are good at mechanics and like mechanics choose civil engineering, mechanical and other mechanics-based professions will get better development, while students who are good at electricity and have a strong interest in electricity tend to be more suitable for choosing electronics, electrical or other cross-disciplinary professions involving electricity.
Therefore, it is necessary to dismantle the knowledge of each module of high school physics and compare and match it with the contents of university majors, and make the interest and ability of the subject an important reference basis for choosing majors.
The VWS matches high school physics with 26 majors for the reference of students and parents, and the requirements for selecting the majors are based on the documents released by the education departments of the respective provinces.
