Is it necessary to pass CET-4 in English to graduate from college? If not, what's the impact?

Generally speaking, there is no impact, because this is a competency examination organized by the state, so passing it will have many benefits.

I will briefly summarize a few points based on my own experience:

1. Some schools do not give graduation certificates and degree certificates to those who have not passed CET-4. My old school had this rule. , so for such a school, you cannot graduate without passing CET-4.

2. Impact on employment: Many positions now have rigid regulations for CET-4 and CET-6. If an enterprise does not organize an effective English proficiency assessment, the most efficient way is to see if there is a CET-4 or CET-6 certificate. , after all, this is a national examination, and passing it represents a certain proof of ability.

3. Impact on graduate school admissions: Nowadays, schools offering postgraduate entrance examinations also have regulations for CET-4 and CET-6. If you fail to pass CET-4, there is basically no chance of admission to postgraduate entrance examinations. If you pass all Level 6, you will get extra points for postgraduate studies.

4. Situations that affect individuals going abroad: Some Asian countries recognize our CET-4 and CET-6 test scores. Sometimes, because there is no time to take the TOEFL or something like that, colleges and universities that recognize our CET-4 or CET-6 test scores will Then whether you have passed Level 4 or Level 6 is particularly important.

So in college, if there are no other very necessary things to delay, it is best to pass CET-4 and CET-6 as soon as possible to lay a good foundation for your college career and future development.

I wish all candidates good luck in the exam!

For the CET-4 and CET-6 exams, the state has no hard and fast regulations. Even if there are requirements, they are all the schools' own regulations.

My English was always very poor when I was in middle school, so when I first entered college, I was particularly worried that I would not be able to pass CET-4, and I heard that some schools did not graduate even though CET-4 was not required. After the testimonial, I became even more nervous.

But fortunately, after many inquiries, I found that our school does not have a mandatory requirement to pass CET-4, so I was relieved!

Our school did not allow us to take the CET-4 exam when we were freshmen, so we took the exam twice in other people’s schools. It’s a bit embarrassing to say that I passed the CET-4 exam. It took four times. The main reason is that my English is already poor, so I didn’t take it to heart the first few times!

As for the impact of CET-4, the main ones should be:

First, in order to ensure the pass rate of CET-4, some schools will require that CET-4 be passed before issuing a degree certificate. .

Second, when you are looking for a job, you are not allowed to write down your English proficiency on your resume. If you have not passed CET-4, there seems to be nothing to write about!

Third, some employers will directly ask you about your passing status of CET-4 and CET-6 during the interview.

Also, if you want to study abroad in the future, English is also a hard requirement!

The CET-4 and CET-6 certificates are national authoritative certifications for college students’ English proficiency. In fact, in most colleges and universities, there are no requirements that must be passed, but everyone still tries their best to prepare for the exam, and not only meets the 425 points, but also gets high scores. , because CET-4 and CET-6 will have many direct impacts:

First, it affects normal graduation: the graduation certificates and degree certificates of some colleges and universities are linked to CET-4, but CET-4 does not issue CET-4 certificates. The pass rate of CET-4 is too low for the second-level colleges and universities. In order to allow most graduates who failed to pass CET-4 to obtain diplomas, the school organizes a unified English test, and the schools behind it draw a line, and the test difficulty is far lower than CET-4. I have a classmate who failed the CET-4 exam four times and failed the on-campus exam. His diploma was not issued until two years later. My classmate hates CET-4.

The second is that it affects job applications: Almost all job recruitments in Fortune 500 companies and applications for some civil servant positions require Level 4 certificates, and as a mandatory condition, many outstanding candidates are rejected because they have not passed Level 4 or Level 6. They are turned away, and sometimes resumes are not accepted. The Certificate IV is used as a "stepping stone" for job applications. It is best to pass with a high score. The higher the score, the higher your English level is.

The third is the impact on postgraduate qualifications: There are 366 colleges and universities in my country with postgraduate qualifications. Only very outstanding candidates can obtain postgraduate qualifications. Certificates of Level 4 and 6 are one of the necessary conditions for postgraduate admissions. At that time, Two students in our class both had a GPA of 4.6, and they were both class cadres. One student scored 679 in CET-6 and the other 623. In the end, the postgraduate placement was given to the former.

Fourth is the impact on bonus points for settlement: At present, the settlement of many college students in economically developed cities is linked to the fourth and sixth levels, and they enjoy the bonus point policy after passing the fourth and sixth levels.

Thank you for your attention and look forward to your likes.

There is a composition material in high school that can explain this problem very well:

Sometimes in life, if you miss it and give up, you will lose a lot.

Back to the issue of English CET-4. I have a buddy whose English is extremely poor and he hasn’t passed the English test until his senior year. Fortunately, his school has canceled the requirement to link English CET-4 and dual certificates, so he doesn’t really care. affect graduation.

In the first semester of his senior year, this guy faced the pain of all prospective graduates, finding a job. His English was so poor that his path to the postgraduate entrance examination was ruined early on. If you can't pass CET-4 in English, it would be a disgrace to take the postgraduate entrance examination, and then you can only consider employment. He majored in liberal arts, and it was popular to take the civil service examination at that time (it seems to be still popular now), so he followed the formalities and wanted to register. At this time, it was more embarrassing. Most positions in the national examination required English, either CET-6 or CET-6. Or level four. One of his favorite positions is the National Tax Service in Danyang, Jiangsu Province, which happens to require CET-4 English.

What to do? He still bit the bullet and applied for this position, because he still had the opportunity to take the CET-4 test again in his senior year. If he passed this time, it would not affect the national examination interview.

But unfortunately, the ideal is full and the reality is very skinny. A real English scumbag will never pass CET-4. This guy’s last trip to CET-4 was less than 400 points. Failed again.

The most tragic thing is that he ranked first for their position in the national examination, and he was the only boy among the top three. From a position perspective, it should be said that interviews have great advantages.

But no matter how great the advantage was, it was ruined by CET-4! In the end, this guy went back to his hometown, called people, and gave up the interview.

For him, the fact that he has not passed CET-4 in college can affect his future and destiny.

Having said that, is CET-4 really difficult? If you don't have any prejudice against English, you can recover your high school level during college, and memorize more words, CET-4 should be easy to pass. If you can obviously do something if you work hard, just do it. Why do you have to ask what the consequences will be if you fail?

In universities, students in most majors still need to pass a few simple certificates, such as CET-4 or even CET-6, Computer Level 2, Mandarin proficiency certificate, etc. Others should be based on one's own expertise. Don't regret it until you need it.

First of all, let’s talk about the results. I suggest that universities should pass Level 4.

Whether there will be any specific impact, you should first understand the school's requirements. Generally, the student handbook of the school is very clear.

In many schools, except for art majors, students in other majors will not be allowed to graduate if they fail to pass CET-4. In this way, you will not be able to get a degree certificate when you graduate.

For many students who want to secure graduate school, it is best to understand the requirements of their own school and the target school. Like my undergraduate school, if you have not passed CET-4, no matter how high your grade point is, you will not have the opportunity to apply for postgraduate qualifications. After obtaining the postgraduate qualification from this school, you need to apply for the exam-free postgraduate program at the target institution. Many schools have English proficiency requirements for graduate students who are exempt from examination, and the score of CET-4 or even CET-6 is above 500.

Although there are no hard requirements for the postgraduate entrance examination, many tutors will use CET-4 and CET-6 scores as part of the reference for judging your English ability during the re-examination. If you want to go to graduate school, it is recommended that you must pass CET-4 in college.

It is not possible to register for the CET-4 or CET-6 exam after graduation.

After understanding the school requirements clearly, you need to understand the requirements of the corresponding work unit. Generally, there are clear requirements in the recruitment brochure.

Many positions require CET-4 or CET-6 during the national examination. Most state-owned enterprises, banks, and public institutions will also specify that they require passing CET-4 or CET-6 when recruiting students.

Other companies may not have strict requirements for CET-4 or CET-6 when recruiting, but many good companies require strong English proficiency. Although CET-4 and CET-6 cannot fully reflect a person's English proficiency, it can still explain the person's basic ability to a certain extent. At the same time, for many students, the cost of taking the IELTS test is relatively high. Trying to get high scores in CET-4 and CET-6 is a shortcut to directly prove your English proficiency when looking for a job.

So if you still have a chance, try your best to pass CET-4 in college.

This level 4 or 6 is not a hard standard for you, but if you don’t have level 4 or level 6, you will miss a lot of opportunities. It is best to spend some time preparing for the exam and get it.

The impact of not passing CET-4 or CET-6

1. It will threaten your graduation. Would you say that not getting a diploma was the saddest story in four years? There is a long-standing legend that diplomas are linked to CET-4 and CET-6. If you can’t find a good job at this time, how embarrassing you think it is!

2. Can’t find a good job. As we all know, the rigid standard for good jobs and good units is to reach the minimum score for Level 4 and Level 6, but do you think 425 is your ceiling? There are still people with great advantages of 600, so take the exam well and find a job to survive. The greatest reward for your four years of study!

3. You cannot take shortcuts to further your studies. Reputable universities in China require their students to pass the CET-4 exam in their sophomore year and pass the CET-6 exam in their junior year. Most people may just pass, but for students who cannot pass, there is no way to take the postgraduate route. It means you have to work harder if you want to go to graduate school!

4. It will be difficult to get promoted in the future. Many good units in China are very strict about English scores. Without good English scores as a foil, even if you have excellent professional abilities, it will be difficult to obtain better development opportunities, such as promotion, etc. under the same conditions.

Therefore, make good use of the four years of college, which is the most carefree time in your life. Students who believe that they can create a bright future should seize the time to pass CET-4 and CET-6, sooner rather than later!

It is a basic requirement for college graduates to pass CET-4. Because many units now require CET-4 English proficiency in their recruitment examinations.

But in fact, many positions really do not require English to handle the work. But long-term English teaching involves primary school to middle school to university. It’s already considered a general course. Naturally, English has become a social need. Regardless of whether the job requires it or not.

Thank you for the invitation, Master!

Failure to pass CET-4 will affect your graduation, and you will not be able to get your diploma or degree certificate. This is the rule in universities now.

Moreover, future employment will not be smooth, because many companies require English Certificate IV.

Especially central enterprises and state-owned enterprises have such regulations.

So it’s better to pass CET-4 and lay the foundation for your future life!

CET-4 is a reference that reflects your English level. I can tell you with certainty that it is best for college graduates to pass CET-4. If not, it will indeed have a lot of consequences.

1. You may not even be able to get your diploma. However, whether a diploma will be issued for CET-4 students depends on the regulations of each school. You'd better ask your school in advance whether there are such regulations. If you really haven't passed CET-4 and can't get your diploma, the impact will be really huge.

2. Affect employment. If you haven't passed CET-4 and you get your diploma, don't be too lucky.

Nowadays, many positions require that you must pass CET-4, especially for civil servants, teachers, public institutions, and state-owned enterprise recruitment. The registration conditions include "College English CET-4 score of 425 and above". You just need to pass CET-4. CET-4 is not even enough to qualify for registration, let alone find a decent job.

3. It affects the postgraduate entrance examination. Nowadays, although I have not seen the school clearly stating that a transcript of CET-4 is required, but if you think about it, if you have not even passed CET-4, I don’t think you will have a good foundation to take the postgraduate English exam. If you pass CET-4 and CET-6, your postgraduate English entrance exam score will be higher.

In short, the main impact that comes to my mind is the above points. It is recommended that you pass both Level 4 and Level 6, so that you can have more "capital" to find a job. Otherwise, one day, just because If you have not passed Level 4 and it has delayed your employment and other things, then it will be too late for you to regret it.

This depends on whether your school has any rigid requirements and your personal wishes. The impact depends on personal planning.

If you are looking for a job directly after graduation, it will definitely have some impact. For bank recruitment exams like ours, you must pass CET-4. At the same time, teachers and classmates who are preparing to go to graduate school will advise them to pass CET-4 and CET-6. Of course, if you plan to start your own business after graduation, it won't matter.

However, if you are excellent in some aspects and just failed Level 4, don’t worry too much. The respondent knows an engineering principal who has great professional knowledge and skills. Even though he has not passed the English test, his job search is very smooth.

In short, you can look at your own plans and understand your needs. You can intuitively know whether it has any impact. Finally, if you have the chance, try your best to take the exam. After all, this is a certificate that cannot be taken after graduation.
