我在北美在職考G的備考經(jīng)驗及實錄

字號:

我在職考,現(xiàn)在跟GTERS特別是北美在職G友,分享一下經(jīng)驗,也算盡自己的義務吧。
    在職備考很難,主要是干擾太多。忙完一天以后根本就沒心思看書。我主要是利用早晨的兩個小時來背單詞。周末作題。考前兩禮拜請假突擊了一下。總共花了六個月吧。中間還有雜七雜八的事情,停了個把月。。。
    離開學校久了,考試對我來說已經(jīng)非常寞生。我考的時候,每個section前幾分鐘總難以集中精力,感覺浮于考題之外,有些手忙腳亂。我建議大家??家鋈祝琖ritting, Verb, Quantitative一定要一起做。我做完Issue and Argument +第一個V之后就覺得狀態(tài)下降,因為以前都是分開來做的。如果方便的話,在圖書館模考,應為跟考試時的干擾差不妥。
    當然我們在職G友也有優(yōu)勢。我們英語的總體水平叫高,閱讀和寫作相對來說就不需要太準備了。
    背單字是考G的第一步,是最難的一步,也是最容易突破的一步。難在需要花很長時間,容易在你只要肯花時間,總能背熟。個人感覺如果你人在北美,不僅僅是應付考,這些單詞對閱讀還是很有幫助的。另外很多人文方面的教授也很喜歡用這些詞,可能是受GRE的影響。。。(這句話可以做argument的題目)我背單詞開始用的是紅寶99,考前兩周看的蘭寶。因為整塊時間不多,我把紅寶分成九個section.一個月背熟兩個還是比較容易堅持的。另外發(fā)音背詞軟件效果很好,至少感覺少孤獨一些。
    天空也是較易突破的。我推薦陳圣元的《GRE句子填空〉dangdang.com可郵購(航空郵費=300% *原書價,一周內(nèi)應到)。好像也有下載?
    我不知道數(shù)學成績有多重要,如果重要的話應該花些時間準備。別像我一樣拖到最后沒來得及準備。不過差不了多少。。。
    最后感謝在這里的G友,正是因為有了你們的陪伴,我才能不一個人去孤獨地走這艱辛的備考路。
    JJ:
    Issue: "In any realm of life—whether academic, social, business, or political—the only way to succeed is to take a practical, rather than an idealistic, point of view. Pragmatic behavior guarantees survival, whereas idealistic views tend to be superceded by simpler, more immediate options."
    "History teaches us only one thing: knowing about the past cannot help people to make important decisions today."
    Argument
    The following appeared in a memorandum from a dean at Omega University
    "Fifteen years ago, Omega University implemented a new procedure that encouraged students to evaluate the teaching effectiveness of all their professors. Since that time, Omega professors have begun to assign higher grades in their classes, and overall student grade averages at Omega have risen by thirty percent. Potential employers apparently believe the grades at Omega are inflated; this would explain why Omega graduates have not been as successful at getting jobs as have graduates from nearby Alpha University. To enable its graduates to secure better jobs, Omega University should now terminate student evaluation of professors."
    累犯沒有出藍寶的范圍,只有一insubstantial<-> 不確定,反正都不像,我瞎選了extensive..
    填空也不難,跟國內(nèi)題(90-97)差不多。不過都是新題,所以別指望老JJ.我覺得JJ沒大用,當然這和我在月初考有關(guān),另外我也沒看多少國內(nèi)JJ...
