What's the experience of studying at Harvard University?
I. Curriculum Characteristics and Educational Ideas of Harvard University Regarding the characteristics of the core curriculum of Harvard University, I can talk about my personal experience. Harvard not only pays attention to whether students have completed professional courses, but also offers some general education courses, including courses in different disciplines. ◆

Educational philosophy-Harvard University emphasizes the all-round development of students, not just in a single field. However, it should be noted that students must pass the examination of professional courses in order to meet the basic professional requirements. Besides, choose some interesting courses to broaden your horizons. ◆

Curriculum-In terms of curriculum, let me give an example of my major and curriculum. For example, biology foundation will have 2-3 classes every week, with the time ranging from 1- 1.5 hours; The experimental class lasts 2-3 hours a week, and there may be some time to sort out the problems in the previous homework. In addition, there are some courses, such as language courses or expository writing courses for senior students, which are not lectures, but students will form a group of 10- 12 people to discuss the materials in class. Second, is the major choice of Harvard University as common as that of China University? Harvard has 49 different undergraduate research fields. Students can choose a major in the following ways: ◆ You can choose a major that you are interested in or understand; ◆ You can also choose a double major to learn knowledge in two fields; ◆ Or choose another major and minor; ◆ Or choose a major and minor in a language. Harvard University's research in 49 different fields provides students with rich choices, including many hot fields. For example, economics, computer science, government studies, applied mathematics, social studies, neurobiology and so on, among which there are almost more than 4,000 courses for students to choose from. Among the courses I choose, there is a course called biology and evolutionary biology, also called comprehensive biology. What are the outstanding undergraduate programs of Harvard University? When it comes to the undergraduate program of Harvard University, we must talk about the courses closely related to it. Harvard has many excellent courses, the first thing that comes to my mind is economics. Every year 1000, more than 100 freshmen in economics have trained many famous economists. In addition, CS

50 is also a very important course for computer majors. If we talk about projects from the perspective of colleges, there are countless colleges in Harvard University, among which law school is one of the best. Undergraduate students studying in law school can have access to world-class courses, which is very conducive to the development and improvement of their own level. Fourth, the infrastructure, material resources and campus life of Harvard University ◆

Material resources-at Harvard, you don't have to worry about the shortage of resources, just take the initiative to find or ask others. The professor will list a wealth of books in a certain field, which is worth learning and learning from. They will also encourage you to go to the library to look up celebrity anecdotes or other knowledge you need to know. ◆

Infrastructure-At Harvard, there are more than 70 libraries and branches. At first, you may be confused and don't know where to go, including me. I haven't been to all branches of Harvard, but it doesn't matter. Widner Library, the largest research library of social sciences and humanities in Harvard University, has a large number of books. It is equipped with computer equipment. Students can find the information they need by entering their Harvard ID and logging into their accounts. In addition, my favorite of Harvard University is house.

Life, 15 or 16 dorms are for freshmen, which will give people the feeling that Harry Potter lives in a magic school. ◆

Campus life-in the next three years, you will live here, just like your home. Your food, clothing, housing and transportation will also be here, and it will be a very interesting collective life. You can have fun with your friends, play games and have a good campus life together. V. Employment of Harvard University Graduates In the past few years, a large number of graduates have entered the consulting industry. For example, BCG, Boston Consulting Group; McKinsey, McKinsey Consulting Company; Bain, Bain Consulting and so on. These companies will hold job fairs on campus, attracting countless graduating students to ask questions, and even some graduates who are not very interested in consulting industry will come to apply. There are also some students who choose to teach English in America or other countries. 6. In the process of admission to Harvard University, what aspects will the admissions officer value? I remember the scene clearly. In the year of graduation, I began to submit various application materials. I thought I must have missed Harvard, but the fact is that PK lost many applicants, and I came here successfully, just like winning the lottery. I feel very lucky. ◆

Academic performance and extracurricular activities-I can successfully enter Harvard with good academic performance and rich extracurricular activities. I want to tell those China students who have obtained many certificates and want to apply for Harvard that these two aspects will be very important factors in the application. As for academic performance and SAT scores, because of the long time, I probably remember that the score is Math -750, which is very important.

760 points for reading and 730 points for writing. ◆

Unique characteristics-at the same time, you need to have some unique characteristics that can attract the attention of admissions officers and make them interested in reading your application materials. ◆

Documentary writing-when writing in PS, I show my learning experience in religious schools, and the conflict between my educational philosophy and my parents' training methods; At the same time, I will also show myself how to solve this conflict and how to strengthen contact with my family. ◆

Internship experience-Internship experience is also a very important assessment factor. What matters is not your leadership in an experience, but your role and responsibility in it, and some convincing deeds and experiences to prove yourself. I think these are the aspects that Harvard admissions officers pay more attention to. 7. What preparations do students need to make if they want to go to Harvard University for medical school? First of all, you need to meet the requirements of the number of courses during the undergraduate period. The other is your practical experience, which can be volunteer work, private clinic or local hospital internship experience. In addition, doing research is also a great practical experience for students who want to apply for medical college. For example, what did you do in the summer vacation, did you work to earn money or did a survey? For international students, it is not easy to find a medical internship experience in the United States, and there may be some living expenses and other burdens. So I suggest to improve my English in China, ensure enough financial support, accumulate some internship experience, and then the rest is to apply to my favorite school.
