Guo Meicheng, a senior high school student at No. 2 Middle School in Xinjian District, Nanchang City: I chose the combination of language, mathematics and English + history + politics + geography, and the adaptive test results (simulated voluntary filling results) are still far from the university in my mind. In the next study, I will try my best to make up for the shortcomings in geography and mathematics, and strive to achieve satisfactory results in the college entrance examination in June.
The Gansu Provincial Education Examination Institute conducted a full-process training on policy interpretation, voluntary filling, and examination management for personnel from high schools and recruitment agencies in 14 cities and prefectures, 86 counties and districts in the province in a combination of online and offline methods.

The 2024 Strong Foundation Plan is about to be launched
The reporter learned from the Ministry of Education that the 2024 Strong Foundation Plan will be launched soon. There are a total of 39 pilot colleges and universities, with the purpose of selecting and cultivating students who are interested in serving the major strategic needs of the country and have excellent comprehensive quality or top-notch basic disciplines.
The Strong Foundation Program, also known as the pilot enrollment reform of basic disciplines, focuses on the enrollment of mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, history, philosophy, paleography and other related majors. Focus on key areas such as high-end chips and software, intelligent technology, new materials, advanced manufacturing and national security, as well as the humanities and social sciences fields where there is a shortage of national talents, and reserve corresponding talents for major national strategies.
Wang Yulong, Director of the Undergraduate Admissions Office of Ocean University of China: While scientists continue to explore lifelong learning, they must also be able to sit on the cold bench and withstand the test of repeated defeats. Sometimes, scientific research is carried out even in a rather difficult environment. Therefore, the majority of candidates should be psychologically prepared in this regard before applying for the strong foundation plan.
According to reports, the strong foundation plan is generally launched in mid to early April every year. After the candidates participate in the unified college entrance examination and college assessment, the colleges and universities will synthesize the candidates' comprehensive scores in proportion to the candidates' college entrance examination results, college comprehensive assessment results and comprehensive quality evaluation, and admit them in order from high to low according to the candidates' volunteers. Candidates are especially reminded that the physical fitness test is a compulsory test item for colleges and universities in the Strong Foundation Program.
Yin Guodong, Director of Academic Affairs Office of Southeast University: The criteria are basically that the first score should be very outstanding, the second is good physique, and the third is that there must be outstanding performance in some basic disciplines.
It is understood that each pilot university has formulated a separate talent training program for the students admitted to the strong foundation plan, and generally implements the training mode of tutor system, small class, and internationalization. In order to smooth the channel of growth and development, the school has explored and established a training model of undergraduate, master's and doctoral connection.
Liu Aifang, Executive Deputy Director of the Admissions Office of South China University of Technology: The students of our school's Strong Foundation Program implement the "3+1+X" undergraduate and graduate cohesion training model. The first three years are mainly undergraduate studies, and the fourth year can be advanced to postgraduate studies. X mainly refers to the fact that from the fifth year onwards, students go on to pursue a master's or doctoral degree. Students can be trained in basic disciplines, or in key fields such as high-end chips and software, intelligent technology, and new materials, as well as in the fields of humanities and social sciences, where national talents are in short supply, according to the training plan.
