First, you are excellent, and your college is also a key middle school in big cities. When Oxford and Cambridge come to China to enroll students, you will have a chance to be selected. Of course, this is waiting for him. If you want to take the initiative, you must adopt the following second method.
The second is to study A-level courses. Oxford and Cambridge in Britain do not accept preppies and domestic high school students. But students who accept A-level, if your A-level scores meet the requirements of the school, of course, have the opportunity to be admitted. At present, some middle schools in China also offer A-level courses. Of course, if economic conditions permit, you can also go directly to the UK to study A-level courses. In fact, A-level is the British Advanced Level Examination, which is equivalent to the national college entrance examination.
The above two situations are mainly aimed at high school students. If you are a college student, and you are longing for Oxford and Cambridge, and plan to apply for master's programs in these two institutions, then the following suggestions deserve careful analysis.
The basic process of applying for a master's degree: It should be noted that the application for a master's degree in Cambridge almost ended in mid-February. There is no such thing as "completing the application before Christmas". Therefore, it is recommended that students prepare your application materials as soon as possible. Conditions usually include your final grade in the whole university, diploma level, or proof of English ability. Only by completing these conditions can we get a formal admission notice. The application method is basically online, ranging from 20 to 40 pounds per school.
Academic performance: academic performance is the basis for applying to British universities. Generally speaking, top schools and courses that require a first-class diploma, such as Cambridge Mphilin management or LSE MSs in Finance, want to convince schools that you may get a first-class diploma.
English ability: mainly depends on IELTS scores, and some courses in LES need Gmat. Taking the Gmat will be very beneficial to the application, of course, provided that you get a high score. The IELTS score is generally around 7 points.
Personal statement): PS is the essence of applying for a university, especially in the top universities where all applicants have excellent grades. The quality of PS directly determines the success or failure of the application. The key elements of ps are as follows:
First of all, PS is usually short, so every word should be cherished. Take Cambridge as an example. 200 words, introduce why you want to apply for this department, 250 words, introduce your future ideas and the help you can get from studying this department. In such a narrow space, it is most important to write your own characteristics.
The second is called value-added system. When applying for a prestigious school, most people can't help but praise this school. But this is a small mistake. As a university like Oxford and Cambridge, it is meaningless to simply praise it. I'm afraid no one can fail to know their value. What PS wants to show is that by studying in such a university, the applicant's strength and his/her ability to benefit the society will be further improved, which is called value-added.
Writing PS requires great patience and perseverance. In fact, measuring the quality of PS is very simple: just think about it. If you were an auditor at Oxford and Cambridge, would you admit such a student?
Teacher's recommendation letter: The teacher's recommendation letter also accounts for an important proportion, and the general school will require two copies. A teacher's recommendation letter does not necessarily need a high-level professor to write. Like PS, the recommendation letter focuses on the characteristics of the candidate, so it must be written by a teacher who knows you well and is willing to put in a good word for you. Many applicants flocked to ask the professor to write for them, but they didn't know that the recommendation letter written with a unified template was of little value. To maintain a long-term friendly and trusting relationship with teachers, letters of recommendation are logical.
Conclusion: Like other things, applying for a school is a great test of mental and physical strength. Although there are various skills in application, usual efforts and good academic performance are still the most fundamental factors. If your grades are good enough, then maybe Oxford and Cambridge are not far away.
