I want to go to Harvard. What are the requirements?

If you want to be admitted to Harvard University, you should be prepared in the following five aspects: First, your TOEFL score in Grade One is above 600. English is very important, which is the first level to enter American universities. In order to achieve this result, English learning must go far beyond middle school textbooks. You must go to the society to find a more advanced training class. Speaking and listening should be better, but the number of words is a big problem. In any case, we must master the amount of 8000- 10000 words. When I was attacking English in the second and third grades, I recited 300 words every day, which was really boring and bitter. But after six months to a year, basically words are no longer a problem. Students are advised to go to New Oriental Foreign Language School to study English. You can enroll in boarding classes in Shanghai and Beijing during the summer vacation. The courses of New Oriental can be searched online. The TOEFL test has certain skills, and it is taken once in the summer of the first year of high school. If you don't do well in the exam, you can take it again in your sophomore year. The score must be at least 600 points. Now it's a new scoring method, with a full score of 120 and a score of 100 or above. This is the lowest line. The TOEFL scores of China students admitted to Harvard in recent years are all above 630, and the new scores should be above 1 10. Second, to prepare for the STA exam, American universities must take the SAT exam. In order to compete for outstanding talents in the world, the United States has set up SAT test sites all over the world, not in Chinese mainland for the time being. If you want to take the exam, you have to apply for a Hong Kong and Macao pass to take the exam in Hong Kong. The examination time is four times a year. You can take multiple exams and apply for American universities with the best results. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare in advance, and it is best to take the exam once in the first half of the second year of high school and again in the second half. Test content: SAT 1 has three courses, one is English grammar and vocabulary; Second, English writing; The third is mathematics. Each course scored 800 points, and the score was * * * 2,400 points. To enter Harvard, the minimum score is above 2200. SAT 2, you can choose three courses from many courses, such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, history, geography and so on. And each course is 800 points out of 2400 points. The subjects you choose to take should be related to what university you want to go to and what major you want to study. Students in China generally choose mathematics, science and chemistry, but other courses are more difficult because of the limitation of English. The difficulty of SAT is similar to GRE, and the English part is more difficult than TOEFL. There are SAT training schools in New Oriental, Shanghai and Beijing, which have been run several times and have achieved good results. Most China students admitted to American universities have attended this training course. Senior one should be trained once, and then take the exam. You can also buy some books to read in advance. The math part may be simpler than China's, but the thinking is different. If you don't train in advance, you may not win. Zt three. Students majoring in daily study and art and sports should reach the provincial key middle school 10 during the high school period. The admission of Harvard depends on the evaluation of the school, and the former 10 students get extra points. When I was a freshman, I should have won the gold medal in the national Olympic Games (mathematics, physics, chemistry), and American universities attached great importance to this. To have literary or sports expertise, you must win prizes in provincial or national competitions. The above three points are not hard indicators, but extra points. The hard indicators are TOEFL and SAT. If it's a little worse, you can add points to make it up. However, students who apply for Harvard all have international Olympic gold medals or stylistic specialties. So you have to have it, too Fourth, social activities and leadership. In fact, this article is to see your sense of responsibility and love for society, and to test whether you have long-term perseverance. Outstanding performance in social activities can reflect a person's character. Because people who come out of Harvard are responsible people and want to make contributions to society. These qualities must be cultivated from an early age and displayed during middle school in order to be recognized. So what exactly should we do? It is difficult to have a unified standard, it depends on everyone's situation. Give a few examples for reference. (1) Participation in major activities and meetings. Some people have made outstanding achievements as volunteers in the Asian Games and Paralympic Games, some people have actively participated in environmental protection activities and made achievements, some people have participated in international youth conferences and submitted valuable topics and boldly expounded their views at the conferences, and so on. (2) Long-term adherence to voluntary activities. Some people insist on going to nursing homes every week to help the elderly voluntarily, some people compile teaching materials and audio tapes for Tibetan students online, and some people organize and insist on collecting money to help families in poor areas dig wells to solve the drinking water problem. (3) Being the organizer and creator of an activity. Some people organize student companies, sell goods, and donate something meaningful with the money they earn. In short, it is to show your love, your sense of social responsibility and your ability in the activities. But we must persist for a long time, reaching one or two years. V. Letter of recommendation and evaluation of the school. This is very important. If you can have a head teacher, a principal, or a celebrity you know in social activities, it will play a great role in writing a good recommendation letter for you. The person who writes a letter of recommendation should know you best, and write his true understanding of you. The evaluation of the school is also very important. Harvard University requires schools to fill out forms and answer some fixed questions, so that the evaluation of students has quantitative indicators. So your performance in school and the teacher's evaluation of you are very important. The above five aspects are the direction to be worked hard. Only by doing your best can you have a chance. You know, Harvard candidates are the top students in the world, and China only recruits 2-3 students every year. Plus Yale, Massachusetts and Princeton, the number will not exceed 10. To establish the ideal of entering Harvard, we must be prepared to compete with the elites all over the world. If you are in an ordinary middle school, it is very difficult to achieve the above five aspects, but you can also consider the following methods. (1) Go to high school in Britain, America and Canada, and then take an examination of American universities. Although this road is a shortcut, it will cost a lot of money, depending on the family's economic ability. (2) apply for the national first-class high school science class. There are national science courses in the middle school attached to Beijing People's Congress, Shanghai Foreign Languages School, Fudan Middle School and Suzhou Middle School, which can be found online. If you can go to these schools in high school, you will save a lot of effort and not spend much money, but there will be many opportunities. It doesn't matter if you can't do these two things, but you have to work hard. All of the above are inseparable from the support and help of your parents. You should communicate with them more, mobilize the whole family and work together to realize your ideal.
