Hello, I am a candidate for architectural design in the 20th session of Zhejiang University, and I have just been admitted this year. Because the undergraduate architecture is not evaluated, the degree after graduation is still an engineering degree, so for the future career development, it is best to get yourself a master's degree in architecture. Finally, I was successfully admitted to Zhejiang University. The following is my mental journey.

Second,? Reasons for choosing a school

When choosing a school, give priority to the geographical location of the school. My personal mood and future will always be loyal to my natural conditions and humanistic environment. I have seen all the snowy areas outside the customs, such as the Shuomo in Hexi, the Qiling in Bashu and the blue waves on Qiongya. Only the beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is elegant and interesting, and it is quite pleasant to recall.

Choose Hangzhou, because it is particularly delicate and pretty. When I chose Zhejiang University, I didn't even pay attention to its admission rate in previous years. I only know that since I have chosen, I should study hard. Because the initial choice of school, everyone is the same basis. Since it is your favorite school, you must fight bravely. We just need to make sure that when we finish this year's postgraduate entrance examination, there will be no regrets in retrospect. In introspection, it is good to really think that you are worthy of yourself.

Third,? Preparation of specialized courses

Building foundation (specialized course 1)

Learning direction: browse the contents of architectural textbooks comprehensively and take notes (notes should be concise and save time)

Learning task:?

1. Architectural History of China: Read the textbook "Architectural History of China" and take notes (select key points to extract and draw, and make some memories).

2. History of foreign architecture: read the teaching materials and take notes on the illustrated history of foreign architecture (ibid.).

3. Building structure: read textbooks and take notes (all figures are the key points, such as the clear height of balcony railings in multi-storey houses is not less than 1.05m, and the clear height of balcony railings in high-rise houses is not less than 1. 1m, etc. ).

The first volume of Architectural Structure, edited by Li Biyu, Architectural Engineering Press;

Architectural Structure, Volume II, edited by Liu, Architectural Engineering Press;

4. Architectural physics: read textbooks and take notes.

Architectural Physics, edited by Liu Xiao, China Building Industry Press, 1999.

5. Urban planning: There are too many textbooks, so it is recommended not to read them. Just make good use of training materials in the future.

Reference books: textbooks for various subjects, urban planning principles, illustrations of foreign architectural history?

Chen Zhihua's History of Foreign Architecture tells about the architecture in various regions with time as the axis. This book only needs to see the Rococo part of French classicism, and then it can turn to the next book, History of Modern Foreign Architecture by Luo Xiaowei. (Of course, if you have spare capacity, you can look at the building part on the eve of the bourgeois revolution. ) The study of the ancient part focuses on the development, evolution and reasons. The evolution of structure, shape, column shape and elevation is particularly important. In the modern part, I personally feel that the compilation of books is not particularly clear, perhaps because the development of modern architecture is more and more blooming. The review at this stage focuses on summarizing the outline and clarifying the relationship between the characters (especially before the five great masters and the five great masters).

6-hour Quick Question Design (Specialized Course 2)

Learning direction: practice quickly at this stage, depending on personal situation. If you have a good hand-drawn foundation before, I suggest you start the real problem training of Zhejiang University directly, one set a week. If you are a novice, I suggest you train the renderings once a week, and train your personal style first. ?

Quick questions generally aim at newly built/added/rebuilt public buildings, and complete architectural design schemes, including external environmental planning. The scheme should correctly arrange the relationship between the building and the environment for environmental design, and realize reasonable functional layout and streamline organization according to the requirements of design tasks, which can reflect the individual characteristics of the building, have good spatial combination, have the possibility of engineering technology, have accurate drawing expression, have skilled performance skills and meet the requirements of drawing specifications. There is no specified bibliography, mainly referring to architectural design standards and technical specifications. The following are recommended by the Postgraduate Entrance Examination Information Alliance:

Peng Yigang's Theory of Architectural Space Combination, China Building Industry Press;

Architecture: Form, Space and Order, translated by Francis, Ding Gang, Qin, Zou Denong and Fang;

Architectural design data set China Building Industry Press;

80 cases of rapid architectural design published by Xi University of Architecture and Technology;

Xin Saibo's Guide to the Preparation of Quick Topic Design: Quick Topic Design for Architecture Majors;

Li Zhitao registered architect architectural scheme design examination guide;

Dai Zhizhong, the process and expression of architectural creation;

Rapid architectural design;

Code for fire protection of related building design, etc.

Learning tasks:

1. Practice drawing an effect picture every week, drawing it carefully, but don't care about the time first, in short, you can draw the best effect. Only by drawing well can we pay attention to efficiency.

2. Zhejiang University doesn't test the analysis diagram, but it should try to draw the analysis diagram in the copying exercise to exercise its design ability.

3. If you have spare capacity, you can arrange the task of graphic design appropriately, just an A3?

Building foundation

Personally, I suggest that you should not be too "routine" and not be lazy when you start reviewing. At the beginning, someone asked if you could help me draw the scope of the exam and what are the key points. . Although the building foundation can be traced, no one knows how to take the exam. You should ask the teacher about this range. I can't start during the review because there are many reference books, real questions and strange questions ... but after the exam, I am most confident, because I reviewed the basis of the exam, that is, there are several unusual questions that I can answer with my usual knowledge accumulation. My arrangement is to read all the reference materials, have a general impression of the content, and then look at the dry goods of the postgraduate entrance examination materials alliance, including courseware and predecessors' notes, to deepen my understanding and memory and form a preliminary knowledge framework. I think it's too time-consuming to take notes on the principles of architecture and the history of urban construction. Just look at the information and use post-it notes to supplement my understanding.

Fourth,? Political preparation

My political career started very early. I started to watch Xu Tao's class in August. Because at that time, I had not decided whether to apply for 925 in East China Normal University or 843 in Zhejiang University. One is English II and the other is English 1. I'm a little impetuous in everything, but I have to study politics, right? ! Therefore, I listened to Xu Tao's class early. But I still suggest preparing politics next semester, because it is too early, inefficient and wastes the time of other subjects. It is not recommended to watch too many tutorial videos. If someone is with you to supervise your efforts, it feels good, but it costs a lot and may not have a good result.

Political information:

Multiple-choice questions: Mainly the matching between Xiao Xiurong's materials and Xu Tao's classes. I found that someone on the internet said it didn't match, but I felt fine after using it. I bought Xiao Xiurong's intensive reading class and 1000 questions in the early stage, and I finished the multiple-choice questions every time I attended the class.

Big problem: Little 4 small 8! (You can look at Sister Leg's bet, although I didn't recite it)+Yan Muyi Zi Mu yyds! ! ! !

August-September: I watched Xu Tao's video intermittently. If you don't have time, you can skip Tao Tao's class, but Tao Tao is really interesting. I like being lazy. I brushed the 1000 question once and got a general feeling. Because I just watched the video, and my brain is hot, I can close the book and do the 1000 problem.

65438+ 10: Many people think that politics will start later, but I think it can start earlier according to my own situation, because I have already brushed the video before, and the time behind is getting more and more tense, but it is still a bit practical for politics. 65438+ 10 month, we brushed again 1000 questions and read several chapters every day. I closed the book first and did 1000, reading a book. The correct rate is terrible. I once thought that the first two months were wasted.

11-65438+February: I have been doing multiple-choice questions, and I feel that I have brushed all the multiple-choice questions written by teachers in the market. I still chose to brush 1000 of the full set of multiple-choice questions, and also brushed the excellent question bank in Xu Tao. Er ... I think Mr. Tao Tao's multiple-choice questions are average, and I can feel that the way of thinking is different from Xiao Xiurong's, so when I was an excellent question bank, I was very depressed. I think if I have time, I can practice my problem consciousness ... emmm, forget it. Isn't it delicious to study specialized courses? Later, Xu Tao had a video on individual topics in the excellent question bank. You can have a look at it when you have time, mainly to listen to the ideas of solving problems and fill your own blind spots in knowledge.

65438+Early February: Xiao Si Primary Eight will come out one after another, you can brush it twice, and the multiple-choice questions are quick. At this time, you will probably know what the key content of this year's political examination questions is, because each teacher's topic content is similar. I didn't do a good job in August 1st at first, but later I felt that small 8 in July 7th gradually became easier (to increase students' self-confidence) and could achieve 40+. The average score of small 4 is about 40.

65438+February senior high school entrance examination: I rushed into a wave of analysis questions. The analysis problem I recited officially was late, and the time was a little tight, but Yan's analysis problem was really useful! ! ! At that time, there will be some on the market, and the framework will be sorted out for you to recite, mainly focusing on small 4, and integrating the big questions of Tao Tao Leg Sister's composition paper for you to recite. At first, I felt a little shaky in memorizing, because I hardly knew the answers to small 8's analysis questions. But I didn't have time, so I believed it and it was worth it! Push hard! Push hard! I also read the little yellow book. I also talked to Xu Tao's official WeChat account. There was a recitation punch, but I didn't stick to it. The ratio of time to income is not high. I can only say that reciting in front may leave some impression on the sprint, but it is too unimportant. I don't know why so many people can persist (depending on the actual situation, I can't). Fortunately, I gave up Xu Tao's recitation later, otherwise I thought I would collapse. Tao Tao is a very nice person, but what I do may be a feeling. Later, I seemed to like politics.

Verb (short for verb)? English preparation

The English score of Zhejiang University is generally 55, which seems to be not very demanding. In fact, it is a high score for the postgraduate entrance examination. Everyone should be vigilant. Many students fail English every year. After brushing the questions with the research friends, it was agreed that the difficulty of English real questions showed a downward trend in recent three years. I don't know if the real question last year was because I was a little nervous in actual combat. It feels a little more difficult than the previous two years, but it can only be said that it is the bronze level of the real questions over the years. I want you to relax. You can still get good grades by reviewing your English.

The content of English review is nothing more than words and real questions. Doing it by yourself will be a bit boring, but there are also examples of self-study on shore in public classes. Personally, I suggest talking to the teacher and video chatting. It feels good to have someone with you to supervise your efforts. Basically, it is enough to learn the videos of these teachers and consolidate the review by yourself. ?

First of all, I read Zhu Wei's Practice Love with Words. Read it once every three months, and then start the second time. I recited the words with "list" for more than a month, which can be said to have laid a solid foundation for me. The most important thing in this process is to repeat the words or phrases you have recited in half an hour, 0.5 days, 1 day, 2 days, 4 days, 7 days and 15 days respectively, so as to achieve the purpose of consolidation.

After having some words, I began to read the foreign periodicals of the topic source (what book did I buy), and read one every day to exercise my ability to analyze sentences, improve reading speed and lay the foundation for later reading. From April, 2020, I began to study grammar and long sentences with Mr. Liu Xiaoyan. I took notes carefully in class and finished the exercises in the book after class. It took about a month to learn grammar and long sentences, which is very important for analyzing sentences!

I started translating from 1989 to 1995 in May (maybe I have a poor foundation, so I adopted this "stupid" method), one article a day. Reading comprehension began in June. I listened to Mr Tang Chi's reading. The core is to learn his methods and keep practicing. After discovering mistakes, we should refer to the correct methods and ideas in time. Getting feedback is very important to improve my ability!

I have been doing it from 2004 to 20 16, and I left four sets in the last four mock exams. Replace your reading with a foreign periodical (never stop reading! ) Both the translator and Gestalt are listening to Mr. Song Yixuan's class, and their personal feelings have improved greatly.

The composition is to recite 20 articles by Wang Jiangtao (starting from June 5438+00, we should also pay attention to reviewing them in time), but we should write them by ourselves. You won't know how to write until we finish it, so you don't have to think about it in the examination room now.

The order in which I study every day

Memorize words at 7: 20-8: 20 in the morning.

8: 20- 12: 30 Math

12: 30- 14: 00 lunch and lunch break

14: 00- 17: 30 specialized course

17: 30-18:10 dinner

18: 10-22: 00 English and politics.

The reason for this arrangement is to adapt to the examination time for postgraduate entrance examination. Mathematics and professional courses are both 150, which are the most important two courses, so they are arranged to study during the day. Because the postgraduate entrance examination takes place in the morning and the specialized courses take place in the afternoon, I choose to review the mathematics in the morning and retest the specialized courses in the afternoon. It will be easier to study politics and English at night. ?

Due to the improvement of candidates' level, the difficulty of Zhejiang University's postgraduate entrance examination is increasing every year, but all the efforts are worthwhile. I am glad that I chose Zhejiang University, and I am glad that I have become a ZJUer. In Zhejiang University, the teachers of architecture department are very responsible and will take you to various international conferences, large-scale practical projects and various interesting design competitions. For a project, every night spent with classmates is not only a good memory, but also a great wealth. It can be said that what I have gained in Zhejiang University is not only a degree, but also the infinite possibilities of teacher-student relationship, brotherhood and future.
