After completing the high school graduation exam in 2022 with a pretty good score, I got into the school I always wanted - the university of social sciences and humanities, Vietnam National University of Ho Chi Minh city. I feel ecstatic when I can be a new student in the Faculty of English Linguistics And Literature of a school with good training quality. However, I am also distressed about the long journey ahead because when I become a college student - an adult and have to face things that I have never done before. That is a new journey, an exciting and arduous journey. I understand that, so I know what I need to prepare for the new learning environment and how I plan to study at university.
My specific study plan is as follows:
In the first year, the amount of specialized knowledge is not much, I will spend this free time expanding my social relationships, and at the same time learning soft skills and foreign languages. such as: joining the school club, volunteering in the summer, registering for soft skills and informatics classes, signing up for an English communication class, find opportunities to interact with international students through exchange programs. culture and international cooperation. However, my most important job is studying well and getting good grades.
In the 2nd year, I will try to get certificates to support learning and making records like IELTS: Cambridge exam preparation, exam questions, review tips and strategies, daily vocabulary learning, and full practice skills In addition, a computer science certificate is required mos to be able to master office operations. And for my major, another important certificate is a non-specialized foreign language - Chinese, I will have to practice skills to be able to complete the conditions for graduation later. I will also improve and hone essential skills such as teamwork, problem-solving, leadership skills, or personal planning... through courses, or part-time work. There are many jobs suitable for students like me such as translator, tour guide, teaching assistant at English centers, receptionist, etc.
In the 3rd year, I will study specialized subjects and look for job opportunities. Do your majors right and find out about international scholarships and affiliations programs.
In the fourth year, I will study and do my thesis, take the GPA and find myself a job I want. Finally, during 4 years of study, I will try to cultivate and develop the inner part of a person which is the ability to think critically, reflect, manage an organization and manage time intelligently, work effectively and try to become a caring and listening to person to spread positive values to the community.
This is precisely what I thought I needed to do and a clear plan for a new journey was already underway, setting it up in an orderly and structured way so that I had a productive college year and the most meaningful right from the first year and determine my clear path after graduation and seize valuable opportunities through what I have learned and accumulated after four precious years of university. Hopefully, with a clear and specific route, I can confidently enter the university gate with the most confident attitude.
