The key to the difficulty of postgraduate entrance examination is to look at your preparation for the exam, because admission depends on strength and scores. Therefore, if you plan to apply for the exam, you must work hard and be confident, and both are indispensable. It is not difficult to prepare as soon as possible.

Reviewing architectural history is a big project, which requires not only familiarizing yourself with two books (China Architectural History and a Brief History of Foreign Architecture), but also memorizing Zhu Guangya's notes. In the review of China's architectural history, we should not only clarify the time context, but also establish the framework of different types of buildings (that is, the classification of chapters in textbooks).

There are few exams about modern history in China's architectural history. We just need to remember a few important architects and architectural works. Looking back on the history of external architecture, we must first establish a time axis, and connect the buildings of various styles in various countries in series on this time axis. Dongda's architectural history exam pays more attention to the combination of graphics and text. In addition to drawing questions, analysis questions also need pictures and texts.

Review the drawings as soon as possible, and don't wait until the last month to recite them, because it will be too much work. Keep reviewing the key pictures and find a suitable memory method. In recent two years, the examination questions of foreign architectural history are more flexible, with the emphasis on understanding. There is no need to memorize, especially the modern history part.
