1. I don't think it is necessary to expand too much about the importance of mathematical vocabulary. After all, if you can't even recognize the math words, you are basically in a state of ignorance in the examination room. This is particularly evident in the geometry part of the GRE math test. In fact, the GRE math test in geometry is generally not difficult, but some unfamiliar words often appear in geometry. For example, it appears in the title.
Right triangle and isosceles triangle
Triangle, these two represent equilateral triangle and isosceles triangle respectively. If you don't know the words equilateral and isosceles, then basically you can't start with this topic. The other is about the expression habit of mathematical language in English. You need to practice more during the preparation period and be familiar with the American description of mathematical problems, especially the topic of word application types. Don't write the questions in Chinese. Students will do it in two or three minutes, but they won't do it in English. It's not cost-effective.
2. Be familiar with the problem-solving skills. Many students are good at doing math problems in middle school, and they have summed up a set of experiences and feelings of doing math by themselves. However, after going to college, the chances of meeting the middle school math exam are basically gone, and some familiar methods of doing math problems are basically forgotten. However, when doing the GRE math part, we still need some thinking.
Peacekeeping skills. Of course, it doesn't mean that our classmates can't do problems without these tips, but that they have these tips.
Skills, it will save time when opening questions and be happy when taking exams. As we all know, the exam is a holistic test. When you save time in some places, it is often very helpful to other parts. Of course, there are some information about problem-solving skills in the market, and some students just bought some middle school counseling materials to have a look. But students should learn to discard the false and retain the true, and know what is important to them and what is practical to them.
3. comprehensively review the test sites. The GRE math test, even if it is covered with a layer of English, is the most essential knowledge of math. Although in
ETS official guide mentioned that the scope of knowledge in the exam is basically the knowledge in middle school. However, this does not mean that these knowledge points are familiar to students. For example, now let you quickly explain the difference between permutation and combination, and the details that need attention in these two parts; For another example, in data analysis, what are the connections and differences between independent events and mutually exclusive events? I'm afraid I didn't spend a little time looking at it. To sum up, it is still difficult to solve related problems quickly in the examination room. In addition, there are many concepts that our classmates have not been exposed to before, such as quartile and percentile. Because our knowledge coverage in middle school is a little different from ETS's default "middle school" knowledge. So in general, complete the knowledge points.
Reviewing without omission is the basic skill of GRE math test.
4. Summarize the error-prone points. Some students who have passed the GRE often have such questions. During the exam, I felt in good shape, I understood all the knowledge points and topics, and I felt that I had done everything right. Why did I only get 162 and 163 in math? In fact, this part is all right, and most of them are wrong in some places that they don't realize. This feeling is very similar to our middle school math exam. In fact, we rarely really get a perfect score of 100 in the math exam. It's not that there are some places that we can't do, but there are some places that we are too easy to ignore. When we prepare for exams and practice by ourselves, we should
Write down your mistakes, sum them up, and don't make similar problems when you try for the exam.
