One of the youngest members of the Provincial Writers Association.
Can't pass the preliminary examination of enrollment of a strong liberal arts school
Xie, a young writer, is now one of the two youngest members of the Provincial Writers Association. At the age of seven, she began to publish poems and novels. Since the age of nine, she has published 298 novels, essays, poems and fairy tales. In addition, she has created 10 novels and 27 short stories.
Because of her writing expertise, Xie, who got average grades, was exempted from the examination by the middle school attached to China Normal University. The Chinese teacher in the third grade (2 1) class of the school said: "Xie has a unique perspective, unique writing style, eclectic language use and deeper thinking than his peers." However, she admits that this evaluation is only aimed at Xie's casually written articles. "She will never get high marks in her proposition composition. Sometimes it is difficult to pass the Chinese exam. She is incompatible with exam-oriented education. "
Xie Xiangchuan said that judging from her daughter's current academic performance, it is very difficult to be admitted to two universities, so she hopes to enroll students independently. The Ministry of Education has issued a policy: "For a few outstanding candidates who have made outstanding achievements in innovative practice or disciplines, colleges and universities that have carried out independent selection and admission for three years and have strict management norms can decide whether to apply to the provincial admissions office with reference to their college entrance examination results, secondary school studies and comprehensive quality."
The reality is not so smooth. Since 65438 at the end of February last year, Xie has sent materials to 9 universities including Peking University, Tsinghua University, Sichuan University, Wuhan University of Technology and Huazhong Normal University.
Except for the preliminary examination procedure of Sichuan University, Xie only passed the preliminary examination qualifications of four universities: Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan University of Technology, Huazhong Normal University and China Geo University (Wuhan). "Peking University, Wuhan University and other strong liberal arts schools eliminated Xie." Xie Xiangchuan believes that this is because the children's grades are not good. "In the prominent position of the application form for independent enrollment, it is required to fill in the test scores, total test scores and rankings of the applicants in various courses in high school. It can be seen that many schools review not majors, but mainly grades. "
Liberal arts "partial talents" need special channels.
Experts call for the establishment of fair audit procedures.
A person in charge who did not want to be named revealed in an interview that the preliminary examination of independent enrollment in the school also gave a certain number of liberal arts students. "We mainly look at the awards of authoritative competitions such as the new concept composition contest. The publication of general works does not explain the problem, and there is no hard reference standard. And it is difficult to define whether these students are special talents. "
It is reported that students who have specialties in five disciplines, such as physics and mathematics, and can win prizes in the Olympic Games may be eligible for the college entrance examination. Art students are also expected to enter school with low cultural achievements by taking professional tests. Only for liberal arts students, there is no special enrollment channel in this regard.
In fact, even if Xie gets the preferential qualification for independent enrollment, according to the current policy, she must reach at least one batch line before she can be admitted. "Self-enrollment should give opportunities to students who are good at learning. If Xie does have literary expertise after being recognized, a strong liberal arts college should give priority to her. " Zhang Caisheng, a famous expert in ingenious research, believes that there are two reasons why colleges and universities violate the original intention and policy of independent enrollment in the actual operation process: one is the "fair" pressure created by public opinion; Second, due to the lack of corresponding supervision mechanism, it doesn't matter if universities don't implement the regulations.
Some experts said that the premise of opening up special channels is that the selection must be strict, transparent and widely supervised, so that "some talents" can be recognized by the public and the public's doubts can be resolved. To open up special channels for a few special talents, we should create special examination or selection methods according to the particularity of talents, establish relevant mechanisms, and implement them after obtaining high social recognition.
Bombardment: Self-enrollment is really easy to get.
Yesterday, Xie, a third-year student and "female writer" of the No.1 Middle School Attached to China Normal University, participated in the independent enrollment of Huazhong University of Science and Technology and China Geo University (Wuhan). Since the end of February last year, 65438, Xie, as one of the youngest members of Hubei Writers Association, has published 296 works and sent independent enrollment materials to 9 universities including Peking University, Tsinghua University, Zhejiang University, Wuhan University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Sichuan University, Wuhan University of Technology, Huazhong Normal University and China Geo University (Wuhan). Except for the preliminary examination procedure of Sichuan University, Xie only passed the preliminary examination qualifications of four universities: Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan University of Technology, Huazhong Normal University and China Geo University (Wuhan). To this end, Xie's father took the initiative to send a letter to the media, "bombarding" Peking University, Tsinghua and other four "independent enrollment" universities.
Three years ago, thanks to his writing ability and average grades, Xie was admitted to the No.1 Middle School Attached to China Normal University without examination. During high school, Xie's grades were very average, which was far from these two universities. But her literary expertise was recognized by Liu Xiaoxia, a Chinese teacher. "Xie's article has a unique perspective, is very aura, and has deeper thoughts than his peers."
The Ministry of Education has issued a policy: "For a few outstanding candidates who have made outstanding achievements in innovative practice or disciplines, colleges and universities that have carried out independent selection and admission for three years and have strict management norms can decide whether to apply to the provincial admissions office with reference to their college entrance examination results, secondary school studies and comprehensive quality." Xie Xiangchuan, Xie's father, said that because her daughter has a "special talent for literary creation", she hopes to enroll students independently. "Excellent innovative talents like my daughter were eliminated by exam-oriented education defenders or vested interests from Peking University, Tsinghua, Zhejiang University and Wuhan University in the first instance." Xie Xiangchuan named and shelled four places.
Xie Xiangchuan believes that her daughter was rejected because of her poor grades. "In the prominent position of the application form for independent enrollment, it is required to fill in the test scores, total test scores and rankings of the applicants in various courses in high school. It can be seen that many schools review not majors, but grades. " It is understood that both Wu Da and Zhejiang University initially expressed their interest in Xie, but when they saw their usual achievements, they all backed out.
Yesterday, Xie was asked by the examiner about "her views on the current college entrance examination system" in the self-enrollment interview of Geological University, and she expressed similar views with her father on the spot. This "woman writer" admits that she has a complex. "It is better to choose to repeat than to go to three books."
Voice: liberal arts students lack judgment standards.
With the expansion of college enrollment autonomy, the voice of broadening the channels for liberal arts students to become talents is getting louder and louder, but it is weak in promotion. What kind of students can be judged as liberal arts students is the lack of standards.
Xiao Su (Director of Hubei Writers Association, Professor of College of Literature, Huazhong Normal University): Of course, we hope that more literary talents will enter further studies, but judging from the current situation, how to judge has become a new problem. At present, the preliminary examination of independent enrollment in colleges and universities has also given a certain number of liberal arts students, but the publication of general works can not explain the problem, because it has no hard reference standards. Therefore, it is difficult to define whether a student like Xie is a special talent.
I think the premise of opening up special channels is that the selection must be strict, transparent and subject to extensive supervision, so that these prejudices can be recognized by the public and the public's doubts can be resolved.
Li Yujie (retired teacher of Wuhan 14 Middle School, once a mentor of young writers Hu Jian and He Zhe): In 2002, the university enrolled "special students". Hu Jian introduced himself to Peking University and Wu Da successively. Wu Da hesitated and decided to make an exception. After the media reported, it caused controversy. Hu Jian was disheartened. He decided to repeat it and decided not to write any more. Just then, Wuhan University called and said it had been accepted.
For so many years, students who have specialties in five major disciplines such as mathematics in China's college entrance examination and can win prizes in the Olympic Games may be eligible to walk or add points in the college entrance examination; Art students are also expected to enter school with low cultural achievements by taking professional tests. Only for liberal arts students, there is no special enrollment channel in this regard. In the final analysis, it is still a question of identifying standards.
Zhang Caisheng (Hubei College Entrance Examination Expert): The purpose of independent enrollment is to give "studious" students a chance. If Xie does have literary expertise and is recognized, a strong college of arts and sciences should give her an excellent result. Judging from the current situation, even if Xie is qualified for independent enrollment, according to the current policy, she must reach at least one batch line before she can be admitted. It should be said that this is more difficult for students with partial subjects.
After self-enrollment, Hubei has never been admitted without exception.
The reporter learned from the provincial admissions department that since 2003, China's colleges and universities have tried out the pilot work of independent enrollment, and there has been no case of "lowering scores and enrolling students without exception" in Hubei Province. All independent enrollment is strictly implemented in accordance with the documents of the Ministry of Education and the regulations on independent enrollment in colleges and universities.
Jiang, a former middle school affiliated to China Normal University, got 60 points from Tsinghua University in 2008. Zhou Haiyang, who wrote "The Best Full Score Composition in College Entrance Examination", was admitted to Three Gorges University that year. In this regard, Wang, a Chinese teacher at Jiang High School, said that the two candidates were not admitted without exception: Jiang's college entrance examination score plus 60 points exceeded the admission line of Tsinghua in Hubei that year; Zhou Haiyang's college entrance examination scores are also on the admission line.
Xie's document:

At the end of last year, she was admitted as a member of Hubei Writers Association, becoming one of the two youngest members.
