The basic courses here are not what we think, but mathematics, computer and so on. Specialized courses mainly refer to related specialized courses, and schools generally see whether your related specialized courses are enough and your grades are good.
2. Schools of different grades require different scores.
British universities attach great importance to students' backgrounds, and attach great importance to students from universities 2 1 1 and 985. They think that the average score of these universities is 75-80, which is equivalent to 83-87 for students from other non-2 1 1 schools. Some schools stipulate that students only need 2 1 1 or 985.
3. British universities pay attention to the upward trend of performance.
British universities prefer to see your grades improve. For example, your grades in freshman courses are relatively low, which is not very important. As long as the results of future courses are ideal. Moreover, many freshman courses in China are basic and public courses, which have little to do with your major. British universities pay more attention to whether your academic performance is good enough.
4. Last year's papers and achievements
In British universities, freshmen account for 15-20%, sophomores and juniors account for a very large proportion, and some papers account for 40% of the results. It's easy for them to think that China's grades are calculated in this way. In fact, our domestic papers are no different from an ordinary course. Therefore, when you apply for a British university, you can make up for the previous percentage by doing a good job in your final thesis.
5. Work experience
British universities attach great importance to your work experience. Many universities are willing to lower their standards and admit students with work experience. Therefore, if you have work experience, it is much easier to apply for studying in the UK than others.
6. Interview results
Not every university will give students an interview. Many schools want to examine the true level of students. Under normal circumstances, students who perform well in the interview will be admitted with lower standards. If there is an interview, you must seize it, because you can get into a good university with a lower score.
After reading these, we already know what British universities value and what we need to pay attention to when preparing for studying in the UK. I hope you can apply to your favorite university.
