I took an examination of the Department of Geophysics of Sun Yat-sen University, with a total score of 370, high number 149 and geophysics 106.
One, one's deceased father grind choose school, major.
(1) reasons for choosing this school and major.
My undergraduate major is exploration technology and engineering, and my research direction is geophysics. At first, I didn't decide on a school, but I just reviewed English and math, because no matter what school I take, I need to take the advanced math exam. It was not until early July that I decided to take this school. I went to the summer camp of Sun Yat-sen University in Z, and then visited this institute. The environment and atmosphere of this institute are my favorite type. Later, under the recommendation of the undergraduate teacher, I decided to apply for this institution. Because this institute is the strongest in our professional field in China, I personally want to concentrate on scientific research and continue my studies after graduate school. The resources here are very rich, so I applied to this institute. Major and my undergraduate major come down in one continuous line.
(2) Introduction of registration and analysis of the difficulty of postgraduate entrance examination.
This institute will recruit about 30 students every year, and there are seven or eight students majoring in solid geophysics every year. When applying for the exam, we must pay attention to the large number of students who are exempted from the exam every year, so we must remove the number of students who are enrolled without the exam. The enrollment is relatively small, and the number of applicants is not too large. Initial registration is more than 100 per year. The second interview is probably based on 1: 1.2. I entered 12 for a second interview this year and received 8.
In addition to English I and politics, there are advanced mathematics A proposed by Chinese Academy of Sciences, as well as general physics B and solid geophysics. The high number A is mainly due to more proof questions, and the others are no different from the high number part ranked first. Then I chose General Physics B, because I learned a lot of physical knowledge points, so it was easier to review. The overall difficulty of postgraduate entrance examination is still quite large. The minimum admission score of 20 19 is around 345, which has dropped by about 20 points this year because of the difficulty of professional topics.
Second, the first test experience of postgraduate entrance examination
(1) English comments:
Bibliography: Zhu Wei's Love Story,
Yellow book,
Wang Jiangtao's composition,
Video: Zhu Wei's love story supporting video, Tang Chi's Lohan class, Tang Chi's real topic explanation, Wang Jiangtao's composition explanation and Zhao Liang's skill explanation.
Detailed review process: From March to June, I was memorizing words and listening to Zhu Wei's "Love with Words" video. Words are really important. In the process of memorizing words for the first time, you can only enter and not retreat. I finished reciting it every day, but I didn't review it. I recited it again, but I didn't remember a few words. Then I began to try to do real questions, which made my scalp numb.
The second time I recited words, I chose a way similar to Ebbinghaus' memory curve. I feel that the efficiency of memorizing words is very high, and I also gave you Amway, adding words before and after, so that the words can be remembered more firmly.
I thought I had a good sense of language, so I didn't practice long difficult sentences. After listening to Zhu Wei's video "Expressing Love in Words", I probably learned something. About the summer vacation, I began to do real questions. From 1998, read a real question every day and extract all the words that you can't. According to the above method, I recite words every morning. The repetition rate of real questions is really high. Recite all the words that you didn't know before 2005, and you will find many words in the real questions behind. Then there is the logic of doing the problem. I followed Mr. Tang Chi's Lohan class and explained the real questions. He will guide you how to think when you encounter a problem, how to find the right direction in the problem and capture the right information. Of course, these premises are not shortcuts after you have mastered certain vocabulary.
There is no good experience in composition, sharing a wave of failed lessons. The English test for postgraduate entrance examination scored 68 points because of poor composition, and scored 14 points at 30 points. I reviewed my composition very late and recited many templates and sets of templates. So I suggest you start writing your composition as soon as possible, and you must write it yourself after reading the template.
Cloze and translation have new types. I put these three cloze tests at the end. As long as you have a certain grammar foundation and vocabulary collocation, cloze can't be bad, and the questions have become easier and easier in recent years. I don't advise you to give up. There are still some skills in new questions and translation. You can find some teachers' classes online. At that time, I found a teacher at random, looked at it, and then I did it myself. I read the yellow book and practiced it directly on the battlefield.
In short, English words are the key to make readers win the world.
(2) Review of ideological and political theory:
Review book: Xiao Lao 1000.
Exquisite and concise,
Xiao Si Xiao VIII,
Xu Tao Teachers' Core Test Case,
Recite notes
Video: Basic courses, intensive courses and current politics courses in Xu Tao.
Detailed review process: At the beginning of the summer vacation, I listened to Xu Tao's basic courses every night, and with the core test cases of Xu Tao, the basic courses were less and I could finish them in a few days. You don't have to listen, because the intensive class meeting will continue to talk about the specific content, but if you have time to suggest listening, you can have an understanding of the political outline. )
Intensive classes are the focus. I choose to take classes first, and then do the problems. Every night during the summer vacation, I will listen to one or two intensive classes. Starting the next day, I will review the core test cases of the previous day to see what I heard yesterday. Just follow Mr. Xu Tao at this stage. It's really useful to take notes with Tao Tao. When you do multiple-choice questions in the future, it is easy to find knowledge points. If you have time to finish class, Mr. Xu Tao will do some real exercises in his official WeChat account class. We can do some exercises on real questions after class and spend about ten minutes every day to cultivate problem-solving thinking.
It was not until mid-September that I finished the intensive political class. At first, I only studied politics for a while in the evening, and the rest of the time was divided into professional courses, mathematics and English. Political power came later.
After listening to the intensive class, start to do 1000. Take a look at the core test cases corresponding to the question 1000 to be done today every morning. I will write down what I need to recite, and then start to do the 1000 problem. 1000 There are some things above that are not in the core test case. I will open the corresponding essence and find the corresponding place to have a look. In this way, step by step every day, finished the 1000 problem.
After I finished 1000, I reviewed it again. I took Xu Tao's review notes and recited some knowledge points marked in black in the review notes in combination with my own 1000 wrong questions. I found that when I did the multiple-choice questions later, these recitations opened the gap between me and my research friends, and some things were still useful.
After reviewing the 1000 question for the second time, I did all the real questions except the multiple-choice questions in the current politics part, and probably practiced them. I think the part of Ma Yuan is a little more difficult than the usual practice, and the others are ok.
Later, I began to listen to Xu Tao's current affairs class. There are not many classes, but it is really useful. Many problems in Xiao four shaw No.8 Middle School will be involved. Qiang Amway! He will have that little notebook, just print it down and accompany him to class.
The final stage is to be a minibus Xiao Si. Small eight multiple-choice questions should be practiced well, and every knowledge point inside should not be let go. Political multiple-choice questions are the key to determining high scores. I have done the multiple-choice questions of Xiao Ba three times by myself, and every wrong question has been cleared up. Because I have no other subjects to recite, I have enough time to recite Xiao Si. I have recited all the big questions, and I am not in a hurry about the philosophical part of the answering process. Think carefully about the knowledge points I have recited and write down the corresponding ones.
Generally speaking, politics should pay special attention to the summary of wrong questions in multiple-choice questions. We must carefully consider the wrong questions. Many small recitation points are the key to multiple-choice questions. Don't think that only big questions need to be memorized.
(3) Review of Advanced Mathematics A:
Bibliography: Tang Jiafeng's review book, Zhang Yu's eighteen lectures, 1000 questions, 660 questions, 330 questions (first place), closed-door practice, true questions of the entrance examination of advanced mathematics A, and true questions of mathematics.
Video: Tang Jiafeng Basic Class Intensive Class
Detailed review process: I listened to the basic course before the summer vacation and didn't review math seriously.
During the summer vacation, I began to listen to Tang Jiafeng's intensive classes and do exercises with his review books. Because there are many proofs of high number A, I listened to the lesson of proof of teacher Tang Jiafeng twice. What I did was Zhang Yu's 1000 question, and the 1000 question was divided into blocks according to types. Personally, I think it's good, and it can achieve the effect of giving inferences.
I finished all the reinforcement in mid-September, and then by the end of September, I finished the 1000 question and reviewed the wrong questions again. /kloc-I started to do the real questions in October, and I did the real questions three times, especially the wrong questions. I have observed the questions over the years, made some similar questions, and summarized many wrong questions. There are many wrong questions in the later period, and the proofs on the real questions have been done over and over again. Those theorems must be clarified by myself. In the process of doing the real problem, I did 660 and 330 alternately. Because minor issues are also very important, especially my own weak series. Finally, in order to consolidate the basic knowledge, I took out the closed-door practice and spent a week completing it. Probably the whole review process. In short: we must sum up our weak mistakes, take them out to practice and do more.
(4) Review of General Physics B:
Bibliography: Detailed explanation of Volumes 1 and 2 of General Physics and solutions to exercises after class.
Video: Northeastern University College Physics
Detailed review process: I decided to go to only one school in the summer vacation, so I started a round of review of professional courses in the summer vacation. I read books while watching videos and do exercises after class. I was there from 3: 00 to 9: 00 every afternoon and spent a long time studying professional courses.
Practice after class is very important. Many real questions over the years are the same as after-school exercises, so you must understand the after-school exercises thoroughly. I finished a round of review in mid-September. It is a bit difficult to do after-class exercises for the first time, but I must thoroughly understand what I don't understand, so that the second round of review will be easier, and the key parts will be reviewed purposefully according to the real questions.
After reviewing it again, I began to try to do real questions and found that many knowledge points were forgotten. Then I started the second round of review, which was faster and completed in less than a month. The second round of review focused on the formula and related issues, which deepened the impression. Then I began to chew on the real questions, which were still difficult for me, especially the short answers. I didn't master the basic knowledge firmly and didn't understand the concept in place, which led to my slow progress later. Every time I do a set of real questions, I have to go back and review many previously vague principles. The final exam is still planted in the short answer questions. It's a little difficult for me.
Then it is not difficult to choose other big questions. As long as you master the routine, it is easy to get points for big questions.
Small difficulties in review:
In fact, referring to this institute, I am under great pressure and always feel that I can't pass the exam. Then, my research friends encourage me every day, cheer me up and enlighten me in various ways. I think it's important to find a research friend, and two people can take care of each other. And when you feel stressed, go out to play ball for a while, sweat, give yourself a holiday every Friday afternoon, and be energetic for two days on weekends.
For learning problems, you can find some scholars in the postgraduate entrance examination group and take the initiative to ask.
Third, the postgraduate re-examination experience
1. Re-examination of this college: professional re-examination line in 2020: 300 points, and 12 people from this major participated in the re-examination and 8 people were admitted;
2. Preparation for the second interview: Prepare an English self-introduction for about 3 minutes. Bibliography: principle of land seismic exploration, seismic data processing of Mou Yongguang, principle of electrical exploration;
The exam has no scope. Asked the tutor, the teacher said it was mainly a simple question and answer about undergraduate knowledge and professional English vocabulary.
3. The whole re-examination process: Normal oral English requires self-introduction, but when it was my turn, I was in a hurry and there was no direct question-and-answer session about self-introduction. My undergraduate graduation project was related to inversion, so he asked me what earthquake inversion was in English. When asked about the vocabulary of professional courses, he asked me about English nouns, just remember the English nouns commonly used in professional courses; Because the direction of my application is a little different from this science direction, the teacher asked me the first question, what is the difference between seismology and comprehensive geophysical exploration, and then asked according to my resume, which contains my award-winning experience and volunteer activities, and then asked me what to do specifically, and finally asked me about my graduation project.
According to my graduation design, I will explain the specific content of graduation design, and according to my self-introduction, everyone will submit a resume, and then ask questions according to the resume.
The questions asked by the teacher mainly include the following:
What is the difference between seismology and comprehensive seismic exploration?
What's your role in the basketball team?
Briefly explain your graduation design process? (Answer in English)
Are you officially party member?
What programming software have you studied?
What is the connection and difference between geology and geophysics?
Body wave, surface wave, shear wave and longitudinal wave?
What is surface wave?
What are the characteristics of Rayleigh surface waves?
Why do you want to learn C language? I said in my resume that I hope to improve my programming ability.
Four. Advice and advice for younger brothers and sisters.
Initial test: down-to-earth, one step at a time, persistence is victory, and when you feel bitter, you are going uphill. Finally, let's emphasize efficiency again. Although I started preparing in March, I didn't review carefully in the early stage, and I got on the right track in the summer vacation, which was very efficient in the later stage. I feel full every day, and I don't need to stretch the front very long. As long as it is efficient, it is not impossible to take the postgraduate entrance examination for four months. Go! Houlang!
