Unfortunately, concerned about instability in the job market, many students are worried about facing an ever more uncertain future and consequently they have begun to feel lost, according to a survey. The survey, conducted by the Social Survey Institute of China, covers more than 2,000 college students from big cities, such as Beijing and Shanghai.

Tapping into (利用) this vast network of students, the survey revealed about 75 percent enjoy their lives on campus, feel free from restraints (限制) and are filled with enthusiasm. Nevertheless, 16.7 percent “l(fā)ost ones” of the students refer to life as boring and aimless while 8.3 percent complain about the heavier study load they must now bear. Undoubtedly, pressure exists, and 75 percent of the students are worried about finding a job upon graduation. Around half of all participants have no clear career plan after graduation and a high 41.7 percent admit they have not thought about it. Only 8.3 percent have a clear idea of what they want to do and are confident of achieving their hopes and dreams.

The question “Are you a popular guy” seemed to provoke a mixed response from participants with 58.3 percent answering positively, leaving 41.7 percent as unsure, 91.7 percent of the students thought they got along very well with others, the final 8.3 percent finding it difficult to choose a particular answer. Independent answers such as “do things in your own way” and “forget other people’s opinions” seemed to be popular among modern college students with 75 percent conforming more or less to this attitude. 25 percent alone admitted to worrying about comments from other people.

The survey also discovered a strong feeling of confidence among students when dealing with interpersonal relationships and that personalities were slightly influenced by the surrounding environment. Most students criticized the phenomenon of suicide on campus. 58.3 percent urged authorities to discover hidden social reasons behind suicide, thus helping to prevent it. 33.3 percent thought students who try to commit suicide will not be able to face life’s bigger challenges in the future even if they survive. Surprisingly, 8.3 percent confessed that they once wanted to kill themselves, but finally decided against it.
