美国大学面试如何准备:WhyYo
如果一个学生仅仅只是states a major but does not state why that major appeals to him/her,就像“I think I want to major in Chemistry” 之类的,显然这种答案是不能令人满意的。
较好的答案标准是,这个学生可以states a major without truly understanding what the major is but can support it with some activities。 举一个例子,如果该面试的学生这样回答:“I want to major ...全部
如果一个学生仅仅只是states a major but does not state why that major appeals to him/her,就像“I think I want to major in Chemistry” 之类的,显然这种答案是不能令人满意的。
较好的答案标准是,这个学生可以states a major without truly understanding what the major is but can support it with some activities。
举一个例子,如果该面试的学生这样回答:“I want to major in something science oriented。 Currently, I am considering Chemistry because it is a good combination of my passion for science and math。
” 我认为,这还凑合吧。
优秀的答案,其标准应该是,这个学生should demonstrate thorough knowledge of a major, evidence of some pursuit of knowledge in that subject area and can connect it to the school well。
比方说,或许这样地回答关于major的问题:“Chemistry is most likely what I will major in。 I have taken two Chemistry courses at my school and scored a 5 on the AP test。
I love Chemistry because it is the basis of almost everything that we use。 This summer I worked with the Earth Science Department at Stanford where I helped a graduate student study the formation of ice on Antarctica。
I had to use many of the chemical principles I learned, such as the difference between Oxygen 7 and Oxygen 8, to help date the dirt samples。
I also realized that I love working in a lab, even though it can be tedious at times。 。收起
