I am a 20-level graduate student in materials and chemical engineering of Chinese University of Science and Technology. I think the most important step in the postgraduate entrance examination is to choose a school. A good school choice may be far greater than half a year's efforts. Choosing a school does not mean that you only need to know the professional level of the school, but also fully understand your own level, know yourself and know yourself, and set a goal that you can achieve through some efforts. The postgraduate entrance examination has been half successful.
There are many institutions to choose from for the postgraduate entrance examination of materials major. When choosing a school, you can make a comprehensive decision according to the results of the fourth round of subject evaluation, combined with your own strength and favorite city. The specialized courses in most colleges and universities are Math II and Material Science Foundation, and only Tsinghua and Jiaotong University have taken Math I exams. However, the investigation scope of Material Science Foundation in each college is different. We can't just look up postgraduate courses on the research and recruitment network, but also go to official website to find recommended books for specialized courses, so as to prevent the review content from deviating.
Postgraduate entrance examination is not only to examine the ability to master knowledge, but also to test the mentality. In the process of preparing for the exam, you will be affected by all kinds of unexpected influences. You need strong willpower to overcome these difficulties. These experiences will also become a fortune in your life, which will support you through a more difficult road in your future graduate life.
Second,? Reasons for choosing a school
At present, the school has 30 first-level discipline doctoral degree authorization points, 8 first-level discipline master degree authorization points, and 15 professional degree authorization points.
In the list of "double first-class" construction announced by the state, the school was selected as a first-class university (Class A), and mathematics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, geophysics, biology, history of science and technology, materials science and engineering, computer science and technology, nuclear science and technology, safety science and engineering were selected as first-class construction disciplines. The school has 8 first-class national key disciplines, 4 independent two disciplines national key disciplines, 2 national key disciplines (cultivation) and 18 Anhui first-class key disciplines. First-class discipline, national key discipline series, the sixth in the national high school; The coverage rate of national key disciplines of doctor of science degree reached 100%, and that of national key disciplines of doctor of engineering degree reached 40%.
By focusing on the construction of discipline bases, the University of Science and Technology of China has formed a benign discipline ecological environment in which leading disciplines and supporting disciplines, traditional disciplines and frontier disciplines, and basic disciplines and applied disciplines coexist and grow together, laying a solid foundation for high-level postgraduate education.
Third,? Professional introduction
The Chinese University of Science and Technology is the top institution in China, and every student who yearns for science may have a dream of the University of Science and Technology in his heart. Materials-related enrollment units of the Chinese University of Science and Technology include: School of Chemistry and Materials Science, National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory, Hefei National Research Center for Microscale Materials Science, Graduate Science Island Sub-center, School of Materials Science and Engineering (Institute of Metals), Institute of Nanotechnology and Nanobionics (Suzhou Institute of Nanotechnology), Institute of Nanotechnology, Changchun Institute of Chemical Technology, Institute of Advanced Technology of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Institute of Rare Earth.
According to the number of full-time applicants and the postgraduate entrance examination in official website's enrollment brochure over the years, the difficulty of applying for the exam is from difficult to easy: Hefei National Research Center for Microscale Materials Science, College of Chemistry and Materials Science, National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory, College of Materials Science and Engineering (Institute of Metals), Huaying College of Changchun, Graduate Science Island Branch of Institute of Nanotechnology and Nanobionics (Suzhou Institute of Nanotechnology), Institute of Advanced Technology and Nano College.
In addition, because the Rare Earth Institute has just been established 1 year, the difficulty is uncertain and it is expected to be moderate. Master's degree in Science Island, Advanced Technology Research Institute, Nano College take English 2, others take English 1 ... 802 Foundation of Material Science is a specialized course for most students of Chinese University of Science and Technology, but Suzhou Nano College and Shenyang Institute of Metal do not take 802, especially Suzhou Nano College. Some majors need to take math one, and some majors change to two professional courses, such as solid state physics, physical chemistry and polymer physical chemistry, without taking math one. This relatively small professional course may be difficult to obtain learning resources, so students who want to take the exams in Metal Institute and Nano Institute need to pay special attention.
Third, review about the initial test
Politics is the least worrying topic. First of all, the political achievements of the Nano College of the Chinese University of Science and Technology are only valid if they pass the initial test, and the retest is not included in the total score (total score = three points in the initial test ÷8+ retest score ÷2). Secondly, because the political return on investment is the largest, it can be increased by many points in a very short time. Finally, because Anhui is a small water area, there is no distinction between politics. Xiao Xiurong's 1000 question must be done and brushed twice. On the premise of memorizing Xiao Si, try to answer the questions in points as much as possible, and write down what you think is relevant as much as possible. Finally, don't forget to summarize with the materials, and be careful not to copy the materials directly. Xiao Si can start reciting as soon as he comes out. Although there are only a few pages, the actual content is very much.
Finally, let me talk about the topic betting. In fact, it is not a very difficult thing for political teachers. The political proposition group will also refer to the materials prepared by several famous postgraduate teachers when making propositions. 1February, everyone will recite various subjective questions, but subjective questions really can't open the gap.
You know Xiao Si like the back of your hand, which is over 30 points in Beijing. If the subjective questions can't open the gap, don't feel depressed if the information you recite doesn't hit others' backs. Just give you the standard answer for you to copy. After you finish copying, you will get more than 30 points, not to mention the answer given by the postgraduate entrance examination teacher is not a standard answer.
Therefore, the focus of the review before1February is still on the objective questions that can widen the gap. This right is right, wrong is wrong, and learning or not learning is really two kinds of results.
The core of English for postgraduate entrance examination lies in words, which are indispensable for reading, translation and composition. It can be said that those who can speak words win the world, and the most important thing in English words is accumulation. It is certainly not easy to improve English overnight. Start memorizing words early.
As for how many words to recite, it depends on your personal memory and the time to start preparing. I just memorized the high-frequency phrases of the postgraduate entrance examination in the ink, and then recorded the words I didn't know in the process of doing the real questions and added them to the ink. The repetition probability of postgraduate entrance examination words is very high, which is enough when doing real questions, and it can save a lot of time in learning other subjects, and it is not easy to forget if you recite less.
The real question is very valuable. At the beginning, you should ensure the correct speed and do it slowly, but try to control the time within 20 minutes. Make sure there is enough time to finish the whole thesis when taking the postgraduate entrance examination.
English composition must prepare its own template, refer to the excellent model essays of past years, summarize the types and framework of composition, and then prepare some advanced vocabulary. I suggest that when you practice your big composition, you should use your own template and learn to change with constancy, no matter what topic you encounter.
The key to English is to try to figure out the thinking of the questioner. Do you think it's right? Only when the questioner thinks it is right is it really right. In the last month, if you have finished the real question three times seriously and still feel that there is not much improvement, you can try to tell yourself the problem. Take a blank test paper and talk about cloze, reading, new questions and translation one by one. Speak out why BCD is wrong and A is right. What's the matter? Why does e come before c? Why is it more appropriate to fill in B than G in this blank? What is the structure of this sentence? How to translate? See if you can really do it or just recite the answers. Before you do the problem, you are just reciting it. In this way, during the exam, you can know what aspects are examined in each question and finally choose the correct answer.
1start writing in early February. If the foundation is not good, it is best to start writing in 1 1 month. Many people prepare their compositions by memorizing templates, templates and templates. Is the template useful? Yes But it depends on how you use it. First, I read the model essay written by New Oriental's real problem analysis, which is really profound. Through reading, I have accumulated some high-end appropriate vocabulary, some famous sayings and aphorisms, and learned their writing ideas. Then I wrote the same article and gave it to my English teacher to help me revise it. Through correcting, I can learn new vocabulary, sentence patterns and ideas, and truly "take the essence and discard the dross" for my use.
Math: I started studying math last May. The effective time spent on study is about four or five hours. First, I watched Mr. Tang Jiafeng's basic class and took notes while watching it. In addition, the line generation stayed until late June. Then I bought a copy of Tang Jiafeng's 1800, and began to brush the topics of the basic articles and brush the problem sets. I suggest that I answer the questions as soon as I finish the textbook exercise, instead of doing the answers as before.
Until August, I have been consolidating my foundation repeatedly, like a line generation who forgets after reading it. Before August, I passed the online exam twice, and I passed it no less than five times until the postgraduate entrance examination. In August, I officially began to strengthen. I saw the intensive classes of Tang Jiafeng and Wu Zhongxiang, but I recommended to see Mr. Wu Zhongxiang, who had more dry goods, and then brushed the article on the intensive classes of 1800. This step continues until 10 begins. In the intensive stage, you can make a whole book, such as reviewing the whole book or Mao Yuangang.
The degree that needs to be achieved after strengthening is probably that the things to be tested in the postgraduate entrance examination have a framework in your mind, and how to test you in each knowledge point, what questions each knowledge point will have, and even some classic questions corresponding to each knowledge point can be memorized. By the middle of 10/0, I bought Zhang Yu's 34-year-old real question, which was easier to handle.
Ask yourself a mock exam, seize the time, expose all your problems, and spend a day or two summarizing the real questions of 34 years after you finish. 165438+ 10 began to brush a large number of simulated test papers, some of which were basically bought in the market. I made lin li's 6+4, Zhang Yu's 8+4, Li Yongle's * * * innovation and so on. The most difficult thing is Zhang Yu's paper. Although Zhang Yu's simulated paper is difficult, I learn the most.
Generally speaking, my learning method is to summarize more and recite more. Learning knowledge points is the purpose. If the knowledge points are solid, brushing a lot of questions is sublimation. Maybe only one person in the bureau can do it directly. Just this question, not this question type.
There are also some superb knowledge or methods. If you want to pursue 150 or have spare capacity, you can learn. I remember, I learned a lot in last year, such as differential operator method, Stoertz theorem, residue method and so on. In addition, you can add a little more math groups to your postgraduate entrance examination. You can have a look at the problems discussed by everyone. The blind spot of others' knowledge, the blind spot of others, is probably your blind spot. Solve problems that others can't solve, and improve yourself quickly.
The reason why the course "Fundamentals of 802 Materials Science" is difficult is firstly that it will examine some contents that graduate students will learn, and secondly, it covers a wide range, including materials, physical properties of materials, testing methods, physical chemistry thermodynamics and so on. When I take the postgraduate entrance examination, my requirement for my professional course is not to make mistakes in the previous real questions (this part is about 40-50), and the binary phase diagram is inseparable from the professional phase diagram (30-40 points). These two parts add up to about 80. In fact, with some content you will get, it is really easy to get a score of 100.
But if you want to get high marks, you need to accumulate and work hard. I started to study professional courses in early July, three hours a day. In July, look at the foundation of materials science, first look at chapter 1-4 of Beijing University of Technology. This part is the most investigated. By mid-July, I began to look at the pictures of the foundation of material science in Wuhan Institute of Technology, and I can listen to the courses of Wuhan Institute of Technology in class. Then, in August, I began to study the physical properties of materials, and recommended the course of physical properties at Youshi University in China.
The first time, I asked myself to read it as carefully as possible, and my notes were recorded in my notebook for easy reference. I started to do real questions in September. I did a real problem in three days. On the first day, do it first, and then check the answer. The next day, I found the location of the question in the textbook, took a divergent look at this part of the content, recorded what you found useful, and recited the real question and divergent content on the third day.
By June 165438+ 10, I began to recite the second round, mainly the knowledge points and original questions that appeared in the real questions. Some questions don't need to be understood, just memorize them, and some questions still need to be clarified to prevent the teacher from giving inferences. Then start to brush the real questions twice, one copy a day, and finish the correct answers. See if there are any knowledge blind spots that have not been memorized. In February, 65438, I began to recite repeatedly, and I took the exam by myself until the exam.
Fourth, about the preparation for the second interview.
The school line of Materials and Chemical Engineering in China University of Science and Technology is 300 points, including 50 points for political English and 70 points for mathematics and professional courses. However, the cinema lines of each college shall be formulated separately. Specifically, you can go to official website and China University of Science and Technology for postgraduate enrollment online. The re-examination admission ratio is above 1: 1.2 according to the requirements of the school.
The content of HKUST's re-examination varies from college to college, but it includes self-introduction and translation of English documents, followed by a questioning session. The professional knowledge and questions based on self-introduction have been re-examined online since 20021,and there is no written examination, which used to include written examination.
Generally speaking, the second interview of China University of Science and Technology is moderately difficult, which not only tests your knowledge, but also tests your ability to face pressure and solve problems. In addition to excellent professional quality, self-confidence, honesty and low-key are generally no problem.
