Where it's used
Postgraduate entrance exam is the registration photo format for major Chinese national exams (civil service, postgraduate entrance, NCRE, teacher qualification). These platforms enforce strict pixel and file-size limits.
Photography & composition
Shoot in even lighting, facing the camera, with a neutral expression and no headwear. The head should fill about 60–75% of the frame, and shoulders shouldn't reach the bottom edge. Background should be plain (standard white) with no visible shadows. For phone selfies, use the rear-facing camera and keep the lens level with your face.
File size constraint: 20–100 KB.
