First, about choosing schools.

In fact, choosing Beijing Normal University as the ultimate target institution was not completely decided until July. Before that, I had been swinging from side to side. I don't think colleges and universities are in a hurry to decide before formal registration. You can ask your seniors and sisters more, do you want to keep the pressure, and do you want to keep the trend of first choice and enrollment expansion. In the increasingly rolling postgraduate entrance examination situation, luck and strength are indispensable. If you choose not to be careful, all your efforts are likely to go to waste.

In the end, I firmly chose Beijing Normal University for the following reasons: First of all, the strength of Beijing Normal University is beyond doubt. In the fourth round of discipline evaluation, the geography major of Beijing Normal University was rated as A+, second only to Peking University, with strong strength; Secondly, Beijing Normal University is one of the few schools that don't pay much attention to programming ability in the initial and second examinations (of course, they still have to learn it in the postgraduate stage, but they don't learn much). My programming ability is not very outstanding, even a little weak, so to be on the safe side, I want to enroll in a school that pays more attention to theoretical foundation. Finally, the 830 of Beijing Normal University is a revised question type, which only appears once every three or four years, so the question type is relatively single and the overall difficulty of the question is not great. You can try.

In addition, in the process of choosing a school, I suggest you think about what you are more concerned about, whether it is the geographical location of the school, the direction of professional research or the level of teachers, and then screen them one by one according to the degree of your concern.

Second, the public * * * part

The approximate schedule: I will start studying math in March, English in May (I have been memorizing words before), and politics in July/August.

(1) Mathematics

Mathematics is a very important course in the postgraduate entrance examination of science and engineering, which often leads to a large gap in scores. My mathematical foundation is relatively poor, and my advanced mathematics, linear algebra and probability theory are not very good during my undergraduate studies, so this part of my experience is more suitable for people with average mathematical level.

Mathematics learning can be roughly divided into three stages: foundation-brush-test paper. First of all, review knowledge points and lay a foundation from March to summer vacation; The summer vacation of 10 is an intensive stage, and a large number of problems are started; In the middle of June, 5438+ 10, and at the latest, 165438+ 10, I began to practice the test paper and began to check for missing parts.

1. About the basics: We started reviewing the basic knowledge of mathematics in March. In this process, we should pay attention to the following points: first, when learning basic knowledge, we should pay attention to forming our own knowledge system. Specifically, we should know how many types of questions there are under each knowledge category, how difficult they are, and whether the frequency of investigation is high or not, rather than being too literal in the definition of concepts. In addition, we should do the corresponding basic exercises, and the feeling of doing the questions should be cultivated and maintained all the time, and we can't wait until the summer vacation. Finally, we must remember to review in time, and we must also review the high numbers on time when studying the probability theory of line generation. If you wait until the summer vacation to strengthen, you may not remember what you have learned.

2. About brushing questions: brushing questions is essential in the whole process of mathematics learning. If you only read books and don't do problems, you will be prone to arrogance. I mainly brush popular books on the market, such as lin li 880 (which is moderately difficult and closest to the real question) and 660 (which is specially filled in). In addition, some other materials can be added. For example, if you feel that your basic knowledge of a chapter is weak, you can print the title of the chapter "1800" or other exercises as a supplement to the exercises. The most important thing is to summarize the questions, and we must find out in time what will not be filled. In addition, we must jump out of the thinking of completely brushing every question. There are many problems in the market that can't be brushed at all. Just use your teacher's questions and add some other supplements.

Finally, mathematics is a very metaphysical course. There are often seniors and sisters who say in their experience posts that if you don't have talent, don't study math, and quickly change to someone who doesn't take math exams. That's true. Mathematics is the longest and most cost-effective course. After the summer vacation, I have to spend a lot of time studying mathematics every day, but I probably can't learn, understand or do problems. Or after studying for a year, I think I can do it. As a result, you can't do anything when you touch a real question or a simulation question, and your mentality is easy to collapse. Moreover, the difficulty of mathematics is unpredictable. For example, 2022 is an even year, which should be a little more difficult than in previous years. In fact, the difficulty of counting three has not increased significantly, but the multiple-choice question of counting two is more difficult, and you will fail if you are not careful. Therefore, if you decide to study mathematics, you should adjust your mind to face this challenge and study hard.

(2) English

My basic English is ok, but not very good. I passed CET-4 and CET-6 once, but my score in CET-6 was not high. English is a relatively easy course. As long as you study step by step, everyone's score will not be too big. Its learning is mainly in three stages, word-reading-other.

1. About words: This is something that needs to be memorized every day from March to 12.24. There is no need to watch the online word class, which is a waste of time. Recite 100-200 words on time every day by directly using Little Red Book or xx word APP, and make sure that the outline vocabulary has been read 1-2 times before the exam. Of course, the more times, the deeper. I bought the little red book myself, but because it was really too heavy, I couldn't take it to the library, so I changed the APP later. I spent 50 yuan to buy the word limit of xxAPP, which is not bad.

2. About the real questions: I began to do the real questions slowly in May, and I did two articles every afternoon. The real questions need to be repeated several times, preferably more than two or three times, so as to feel the rule of the questioner. In addition, we should learn some reading methods appropriately, such as how to extract information from context and keywords to solve problems. Finally, when doing real questions, you don't have to read the whole article, as long as you can do the questions. It is best to try to figure out the structure and meaning of the article when answering questions. Remember to pick out the words you don't know in the real questions and recite them when answering questions, especially some high-frequency words and very useful words. I like the second interview.

3. About others: reading is the most important thing in English, and the scores of other questions are relatively small, so it doesn't take too much time. Cloze can be done in summer vacation or in August and September. Other small sub-topics, such as seven to five, translation, subtitles, etc.,/kloc-you can learn after 0/0 months. Usually study and brush questions on weekends. 1 1 Start preparing the composition template, and prepare and recite it early, but the score in Beijing is very serious, and the subjective questions may not be very high.

(3) Politics

Recommended teacher: Teacher Ren () sincerely suggests that even if you are a high school liberal arts student, don't take it lightly, but you are a high school science student. Don't be too flustered. Political subjects should be prepared as soon as possible. Don't wait until the summer vacation to prepare. It's really too late, because especially for Ma Yuan and Mao Zhongte, Ma Yuan pays attention to logical relations, while Mao Zhongte pays special attention to everything. If Shi Gang and Hughes think it is too early to review before the summer vacation, they can review after the summer vacation. Don't keep chasing hot spots. There must be a test center behind the hot spot. If there is no test center, then he is a fake hot spot and will not enter the exam. When I was just preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination, I was particularly afraid of subjective questions. In fact, I really think you are a multiple-choice question, especially a multiple-choice question. Too many mistakes in multiple choices will directly affect whether you can get more than 70 points. This is a key score for getting into a good school.

The key to multiple-choice questions is practice and continuous testing. For example, in a chapter in Ma Yuan, if you make more than five mistakes in a knowledge point, you should stop, read a book and check your knowledge for mistakes. If there are many mistakes in a chapter, don't continue to do it. Go back to this chapter and summarize the mistakes. No matter which teacher you do, you can never replace the real problem. It is correct to do the real questions first and then the exercises. The real questions are divided into chapters and the test sites are divided. Combined with exercises and wrong questions, multiple-choice questions will surely advance by leaps and bounds.

Third, the professional course part

Lecture notes on specialized courses of postgraduate remedial classes

The examination form of "830" is compulsory+elective, and all majors are enrolled together, and a set of examination papers. Physical geography is a compulsory question, and multiple-choice questions include physical geography/remote sensing/geographic information/atmospheric science/resources and environment/human geography and other professional subjects. As long as you answer enough questions, this is why there are eleven books in its bibliography. When reviewing, you only need to look at the physical geography+professional reference books you have applied for. There are usually only two or three books. Of course, if you have spare capacity, you can study one more major, so there will be more choices in the answering part.

The review of specialized courses begins in the summer vacation, because the questions of 830 are basically short answers, discussions and noun explanations, so there is almost nothing to calculate, all of which are theoretical knowledge that needs to be understood and memorized, so you just need to constantly recite materials and textbooks, and check for missing and filling in gaps. The second round of knowledge points is very painful, but as long as you stick to it, the third round will be much easier. In this process, to make good use of the real questions of previous years, there are often some repeated questions. In addition, you can look at the papers published by university teachers recently, and probably also look at the relevant knowledge points.

Fourth, about the second interview.

The second interview of Beijing Normal University is fair, and there will be no right or wrong. As long as you behave well, there will be no problem. However, observing the results of the re-examination of the initial test in recent years, we will find that the overall ranking is almost the same as that of the initial test, or there is only a small change, so the initial test is the most important. Similarly, if you enter the re-examination, but rank last, which is not within the scope of enrollment ranking, then the possibility of re-examination counterattack is relatively small. Unless you are sure to catch the teacher's attention in just 20 minutes and fully show them your Excellence, you'd better find a swap as soon as possible.

The 22-year re-examination is also online, and the focus of review is professional courses. We should firmly remember the knowledge points of the re-examination subjects, form our own answer framework and logic, prepare a Chinese self-introduction and an English self-introduction, and then prepare several comprehensive quality questions that are often tested. Generally speaking, it's not difficult. When preparing for the re-examination of specialized courses, we should also seize the research hotspots in recent years and ponder them carefully. The most important thing is self-confidence. Whether you like it or not, you should be calm and logical, so that even if the answer is wrong, you can get a score that is almost enough as long as it is not too outrageous. I suggest that you simulate the second interview every two days one week before the second interview, and make audio and video recordings, watch it repeatedly and strive for perfection.

label

The above is my general postgraduate entrance examination experience in the past year, which is not enough for reference. I doubted myself many times in the middle (facing mathematics), but I never thought of giving up. Everyone rushed over. After all, compared with the pressure of work, those pains are just floating clouds, and the days of struggle in summer are like a refreshing breeze, which makes this memory full of comfort and gentleness.

There are several points that need to be mentioned: First of all, resigning from the postgraduate entrance examination is actually a huge risk at this stage, so if time permits, it is not recommended to resign for preparation. Because my previous work status was basically 7*24 hours standby, I had to resign from the exam. Secondly, the choice of cross-geography is also based on my senior high school liberal arts major geography and college English, which can free up more time to concentrate on mathematics, so students who cross the exam must give full play to their respective advantages and make up for each other's shortcomings. Thirdly, in fact, learning doesn't have to be an ascetic, get up early and be greedy for the dark, put an end to entertainment and stay away from the world. "Adults pay attention to efficiency", and health is the most important. No one, just sprinting in the summer vacation.

Postgraduate entrance examination is actually a comprehensive examination, which is not only an information war, but also a psychological war. When you walk out of the examination room in1February, you will find that this is just a simple exam, and what keeps you awake all night is the many meanings you have given it. So no matter what stage you review now and whether you have a clear goal, don't worry too much, let alone ask too late. As long as we stop internal friction from now on, it will be too late! Come on! Come on! Come on!
