2. Is it safe enough to contact your tutor four months before you make a wish (if you make a wish in mid-September)?
A: It is better to contact early. Almost six months ago.
3. The application object is the chemistry department preparatory course. Will the tutor ask for proof of previous research projects? I'm busy minoring for two years, so I don't have time to participate in student research projects.
A: Of course it is better to have it. The tutors there pay more attention to practical experience. I was able to finish it because I published my paper. It's better to have me.
Is it necessary to apply for a letter of recommendation from our tutor?
A: Yes, generally speaking, the tutors of our domestic schools are required. According to the requirements of the school, but take good care.
It seems that the wish letter only mentions the submission of Japanese and English grades. How much guarantee is the score? (In July, I took N 1 and TOFEL, and the expected results are probably 150+ and 90+).
A: If the first level is better, it will be safer. But if you are a science major, Grade 2 is ok, but if you want to enter a good university in the future, Grade 1 is still necessary. There are requirements for a school with a good TOEFL score like Dongda, but it is certainly better to get a higher score. If you can get more than 90 points, you will definitely have no problem. Try Dongda.
There are also several "technical" problems in contacting the tutor.
6. Will the Japanese content sent by the domestic mailbox be garbled when opened there? What if it's a foreign mailbox like gmail?
A: Hotmail or gmail is recommended. But we all use Hotmail.
7. What should be included in the first letter to the tutor? Should I attach a letter of recommendation (if necessary), a research plan, a photo of my life, etc. to my first contact?
A: Mainly letters of recommendation and research plans. The research plan must be well written. This is very important! But don't exaggerate, because Japanese tutors pay great attention to honesty. Maybe you can't work out your plan until you graduate. So being pragmatic is the most important thing! If it is convenient, please attach your resume.
8. What kind of teachers are qualified to take graduate students? Which title of tutor will have a higher success rate?
A: Professor, usually a professor.
9. Is the so-called strategy of "casting a net" to find a mentor necessary in many answers? Because there are not many tutors whose research direction is in line with their goals.
A: Just find a few more and contact a few, because if you can't, there will be others. But be careful that it must be related to your major. The success rate will be high.
Finally, I wish my parents success in their studies and climb higher step by step ~ ~ Hehe ~ ~ I'll go, too.
