1, the definition of PAT exam:
(1) ①PAT test refers to the physical aptitude test. It is a physical ability test of Oxford University, and it is a necessary test for applying for the physics department of Oxford University. In addition, students applying for engineering and materials science at Oxford University are also required to submit PAT scores.
②PAT is jointly organized by the Physics Department of Oxford University and the British Entrance Examination Service Center (UCAS). Because of its authority and openness, many students who like physics will take this exam to challenge themselves and prove their potential and talent in physics.
2.PAT exam application conditions:
First of all, candidates must have some basic knowledge of English, such as studying English for a long time in school and mastering some English knowledge, so as to take the PAT exam effectively.
Secondly, candidates must meet the academic requirements. Generally speaking, students who take the PAT exam must have a high school education or above, whether at school or off campus.
In addition, candidates must submit valid identification, such as ID card or passport.
The role of PAT exam:
1, display capacity:
PAT test is a physical fitness test, which can accurately reflect the potential and talent of candidates in physics. Through the examination results, candidates can show their physical abilities to the physics departments of Oxford University or other universities and increase their chances of being admitted.
2. Enhance competitiveness:
Excellent PAT scores can improve the competitiveness of international students applying for physics, materials and engineering. In the application process, PAT scores can be used as an important reference index to help international students stand out from many applicants.
3. Prepare for the interview:
PAT exam can also help candidates prepare for the interview. During the interview, the examiner may ask the candidates about the problems in the PAT exam and their solutions. By taking the PAT exam, candidates can know the physical knowledge points and questions that may be involved in the interview in advance, and make full preparations for the interview.
4. Exercise skills:
PAT test not only examines the examinee's physical knowledge, but also examines his mathematical ability. By taking the PAT exam, candidates can exercise their math ability and improve their ability to solve physical problems.
