Studying abroad is mainly to prepare for the following aspects: professional background, hardware score and soft background.
Professional background: on the one hand, you need to maintain a relatively high grade point. If you apply for the top 50 schools in the United States, it is recommended that your GPA be no less than 3.5; On the other hand, it is a prerequisite course. If you apply for a major related to the undergraduate major, it is generally not a big problem. If the major spans a lot, you should prepare the courses in advance. It is suggested to start preparing from freshman and sophomore, because there are more professional courses in junior and senior, and the time will be tight.
Hardware scores: mainly TOEFL and GRE exams. If you are a business major, you can take the GMAT, and the hardware score is the basic threshold. TOEFL 100+ and GRE320+ are recommended for applying to the top 50 schools in the United States. In fact, domestic students generally have poor plans for studying abroad exams, and their scores come out late, or they can't get satisfactory scores in the end, which affects their applications. I suggest you prepare for the study abroad exam from your sophomore year. You can start with TOEFL, try to take TOEFL in sophomore year and GRE in junior year. In particular, students with low grade points and no dominant school background must pay attention to this.
Soft background: Business majors are mainly engaged in internships related to the applied majors. For example, to apply for a financial major, you can choose a securities investment company. If you apply for marketing, you can choose the marketing department of 4A advertising company or Internet company. Science and engineering majors are mainly scientific research experience and papers. The suggested time is not less than 65,438+0 months. The more time you spend in winter, summer and peacetime, the better, without affecting your study. If you want to apply for the top 30 schools in the United States, it is recommended to have at least three internship experiences.
