What do American graduate students think of GT scores?

What do American graduate students think of GT scores? 2011-12-23 For China students who are used to taking exams, the importance of GT exam is almost the same as that of national college entrance examination and postgraduate exam, which directly determines whether they can enter higher education. Indeed, all along, we have come under this educational model of "one test determines the outcome", and everyone is used to putting the exam first. It is very important for a China student to get good grades. Students who are going to study abroad together will generally ask when they meet, how is your GT preparation? How many points did you get in the exam? This has also directly led many students to think that as long as GT scores high, it means that you can enter a prestigious school and win a prize. It is also because of the influence of this concept that many applicants put most of their energy into the GT exam, ignoring a lot of other work that needs to be done. We're not saying that GT grades are not important. In the application process, GT is often the first criterion for school assessment, and it is really necessary to pay attention to GT scores. There will be a working group in the admissions office of foreign schools to screen the application materials sent by mail in the early stage, and screen out those applications with incomplete application materials and hardware conditions that simply do not meet the admission requirements. One of them was selected according to the GT score. It can be said that a good GT score is a stepping stone to apply for studying abroad. If you don't have a qualified GT, you may not even get in. However, after successfully passing the screening of GT scores, the real trial has just begun. The professors of the Admission Committee will look at your transcripts, diplomas, resumes, personal statements, papers and other materials, and carefully examine your academic background, experience and personality characteristics to see if they meet the requirements of the school. At this point, the GT score is basically only a reference item, because for American professors, getting high marks is not a great thing. What they need are students with distinctive personalities who can help them with their research and teaching. Therefore, in the process of preparing for studying abroad, of course, the GT exam needs to be prepared with energy, and other work can not be ignored. We think the first thing we need to pay attention to is to clarify our purpose of studying abroad and find a school that suits us. Many students just blindly pursue high rankings, without paying attention to what they are studying for, what they need to get, and which schools can really help them achieve their goals. In the United States, this is very important, and schools pay great attention to the fit between applicants and schools when enrolling students. So take some time to study the teaching purpose, curriculum arrangement and training direction of the school. I believe that through the study of this information, applicants can find many bright spots of the school outside the ranking and find the school that really suits them. After recognizing their own needs and the characteristics of the school, we suggest that applicants can improve their background in a targeted manner. For example, if you like a school very much, and it prefers students with research background, then the applicant can participate in some research projects according to the research direction of the school or even the research direction of a professor. However, some schools will make it very clear that applicants must take certain courses and get what marks. Students who do not meet these requirements can also make up courses as soon as possible to meet the application requirements. In addition, foreign schools do not like one-size-fits-all education, but advocate the development of students' personality. Therefore, before writing the document, the applicant needs to make an in-depth analysis of his character strengths and show it in the document through various examples. China people often advocate the golden mean, and even if they do something special or have something different, they seldom show it off, thus ignoring some of their own advantages and specialties. In western countries, being different is a person's greatest advantage, so we attach great importance to the exploration of students' personality in the application, and we should give full play to the applicant's advantages on the basis of existing conditions, which is also the direction we have been working hard for. In a word, applying for studying abroad is a very complicated job. To do it well, we need to take care of the steps and details of each application, rather than blindly strengthening a certain job.

American graduate application-submit transcripts according to the requirements of the school. If there is no explicit requirement, it is best to submit it in both languages. The other two need notarization.

I hope you can adopt my experience!

The application time for graduate students in the United States is subject to the deadline for international students; There are only two kinds of people, one is Americans, the other is immigrants to the United States and citizens of other countries.

American schools generally have application deadlines. Students are advised to apply at least half a year in advance, and the popular majors in some schools are even earlier.

Deadline for the start of school in September: the application deadline is around 1 every year, and most good schools will be closed before 1. You can try to apply to a school after 1.

1 deadline for starting school: most schools apply between 1, 1 1, and some schools have no deadline until the quota is full. When applying for graduate students, the deadline for different majors in the same school may be different, and you need to go to official website for confirmation.

Deadline for the first batch (earliest): 165438+ Beautiful Seattle University of Washington 10/0/0/0. It is the earliest deadline among all the top 50 universities. 10 10 all the materials were prepared on the 29th of October, and then they were sent to the university by UPS express on the 30th, barely catching the last bus. Ohio State University, a popular lover's college in China, also has many majors (such as mechanical engineering and comparative literature). Deadline165438+1October 30th. There are also some cattle schools, such as LLM (Master of Laws) in Yale University, and the deadline is 1 1.06+0.06. It should be said that there are not many colleges and majors that ended in June 165438+ 10. Deadline for Cattle School/Cattle Major: 65438+ Next1February, many colleges and universities like Massachusetts, Stanford, Harvard, Princeton, Columbia and University of California, Berkeley will close their applications this month. Although the application deadlines of these super-cattle schools are different, they are basically within the range of 65438+February. These cattle schools accept a large number of applications every year, so you don't have to worry about not recruiting good students when you close the application in advance. There are also some colleges that are not very good. The deadline is 65438+February: for example, the electronic and computer engineering major of the University of Arizona is 65438+February 65438+May; Deadline for art management major of Indiana University is 65438+February 65438+May. Deadline for applying for Ph.D. in mechanical engineering at the University of Michigan is 65438+February 65438+May. Generally speaking, the institutions that ended around June 5438+February 65438+May are generally super-cattle schools or non-cattle schools. Most of these institutions are ideal institutions for students in China. Many people will send all the materials to America before Christmas, and then wait for the result. Deadline for well-known institutions: the above 65438+ 10 is all the time in 20 14 years, and the following is the spring enrollment time in 20 15 years. There are also many famous schools that ended in January. For example: Northwestern University, Cornell University, University of Chicago, Carnegie Mellon University and so on. For example, the deadline for Cornell and Washington University to apply for a master's degree in interior design is 1.05, and Carnegie Mellon's application for information system management (MISM) is 1.08+0.08. The deadline for international relations at the University of Chicago is 65438+10.4. Top 100 deadline: February, February. Will there be any institutions that can apply at this time? The answer is yes, and a lot! For example, some majors of Johns Hopkins University were closed in February 1; In the top 100 universities such as the University of Delaware, Rutgers University and Clemson University, the application deadline for many majors is even as late as March. Many well-prepared students have sent all the application materials before February. This often affects those students who prepare late. In fact, these applicants should calm down and prepare the application materials before February and March to ensure the quality of the application materials and not be influenced by other students. In the case that TOEFL, GRE and other scores cannot be changed, the quality of application materials is the key to determine whether the application is successful or not. Deadline for business in some colleges and universities: March-May. Are there any colleges and universities that will suspend classes after March? The answer is yes. For example, many majors like FloridaStateUniversity will be closed in May and June. There are also some business majors like Rutgers University and Caspian University, and the deadline for some majors in some other institutions is May. Deadlines for application of different majors Note: Deadlines for majors, MBA in arts, science, engineering and arts, and business, 10, 15, 15, March 15, and music, 12, 2. For students majoring in arts, science, engineering and art, American graduate students generally have only one deadline. So all materials should be completed before this date, including online application, transcripts, GRE and TOEFL scores, letters of recommendation, personal statements and so on. For those who apply for business, the school will generally enroll students in multiple rounds. For example, the Master of Financial Science from the University of Frerochester is registered in three rounds. The first round is 65438+ 10/5, the second round is 65438+ 10/5, and the third round is 15. After the deadline for every American graduate student, a batch of admission notices will be issued. In this case, people who apply early may have some advantages. Most business schools in the United States have similar applications, including MBA. In addition, it is necessary to emphasize the application of music department here because of its particularity. First of all, applying for the music department generally only needs TOEFL scores. Most conservatories have pre-trial time. Usually in 65438+February. For example, the pre-trial time of VocalArtProgram in Bader College is 65438+February 1. Prior to this, applicants need to complete an online application and send their works (such as CDs) to American universities. Around February, colleges and universities will send interview notices, and it is ok to send TOEFL scores before that. In a word, the main reasons why China students can't meet the deadline of American graduate students are TOEFL and GRE. After the reform of TOEFL, the situation has improved. Now the new TOEFL has an exam every month, and the results can be given in 2-3 weeks after the exam. If you want to finish the postgraduate application in time, you should pay attention to the arrangement of the examination time before the deadline.

The top 60 TOEFL applications of American graduate students are basically enough and the results are good. I don't know how much you want. It is better to have a score of 3.4 out of 4, so that the combination of the two and GRE320+4 can make up for the lack of your school background, and the school background will still be valued when applying ~

Because you are not interested in your major, you can consider changing your major. If the direction of the transfer is relatively large, it is best to study the second major at school or take more courses; If you switch to a related major, you need to take more courses. However, changing majors should also consider the amount of future employment, which is generally related to postgraduate majors.

Other preparation materials include scholarships and various certificates, scientific research experience, social practice, community experience, paper publication, internship experience, etc. If you have time, try to prepare all the materials, which will have an advantage ~
