如今有出國(guó)讀研究生意向的學(xué)生中選擇商科的比例越來越高。而各大美國(guó)商學(xué)院對(duì)考試成績(jī)的要求也從只看GMAT放寬到了同時(shí)接受GRE/GMAT成績(jī)。今天小編給大家?guī)沓鰢?guó)留學(xué)讀商科研究生GRE/GMAT考試選擇建議 ,希望能夠幫助到大家,下面小編就和大家分享,來欣賞一下吧。
【專家指點(diǎn)】出國(guó)留學(xué)讀商科研究生GRE/GMAT考試選擇建議
選擇GRE/GMAT前先回答這三個(gè)問題
1. 作為申請(qǐng)目標(biāo)的商學(xué)員是否都接受GRE成績(jī)?
這個(gè)問題的前提是考生根據(jù)學(xué)校選擇考試,而非先考完試再根據(jù)分?jǐn)?shù)去找學(xué)校。對(duì)于想要讀研,特別是MBA項(xiàng)目的考生來說,出國(guó)留學(xué),需要有明確的目標(biāo),想要讀什么專業(yè),在哪里讀,想去哪些學(xué)校,都應(yīng)該有明確的答案。如果連學(xué)校都還沒選好,就盲目地參加考試,把考試成績(jī)當(dāng)成儲(chǔ)備資格,那么如果遭遇到考試成績(jī)不對(duì)口的情況,無疑就會(huì)十分被動(dòng),也浪費(fèi)了報(bào)名的經(jīng)費(fèi)和備考投入的時(shí)間和精力。雖然如今大部分商學(xué)院已經(jīng)開始接受GRE成績(jī)作為入學(xué)申請(qǐng)所需成績(jī)之一,但也有極少學(xué)校仍然只接受GMAT成績(jī),因此考生還是需要先明確要求才能做出正確選擇。
2. 作為申請(qǐng)目標(biāo)的商科學(xué)校對(duì)GRE和GMAT成績(jī)能否一碗水端平?
這個(gè)問題與其說是問題,更不如說是一種現(xiàn)象的揭示和提醒。就目前美國(guó)各大商科院校的招生情況而言,許多學(xué)校對(duì)于GRE和GMAT分?jǐn)?shù)的看重程度,其實(shí)還很難做到一碗水端平。畢竟GMAT考試作為專為商科院校招生而設(shè)計(jì)的考試,其專業(yè)對(duì)口性的確仍在GRE之上,因此更為商科學(xué)校所看重也在情理之中。而面對(duì)水平相近的GRE和GMAT成績(jī),傾向性明顯的學(xué)院會(huì)如何選擇,顯然是可以預(yù)見的。那么考生如何評(píng)估學(xué)校的成績(jī)傾向性呢?查詢一下歷年錄取學(xué)生中GRE和GMAT參考人數(shù)比例就能一目了然了。
3. 是否已經(jīng)決定了非商科不讀還是仍在觀望中?
這個(gè)問題是幫助考生從長(zhǎng)期規(guī)劃的角度來做出選擇。GMAT成績(jī)對(duì)于商科院校的申請(qǐng)可謂無往不利,但在其他專業(yè)上就沒有太多的適用性了。而GRE考試的使用范圍和可選申請(qǐng)專業(yè)則更為廣泛。如果考生不想在一棵樹上吊死,想要給予自己更多的選擇余地和空間,以后從事的行業(yè)也可能并不局限于金融業(yè),那么選擇申請(qǐng)面更廣的GRE考試,也許才是較為穩(wěn)妥的決定。
GRE寫作的作文結(jié)構(gòu)整理
第一段:開頭段。主要是歸納論點(diǎn),說明論點(diǎn)有問題,存在邏輯漏洞,準(zhǔn)備發(fā)起進(jìn)攻。
第一層:
This argument concludes/recommends/argues that…
第二層:
To support this conclusion the writer cites…/points out that…
第三層:
However, this argument suffers from several critical flaws and is therefore unconvincing/ unpersuasive as it stands.
第二段和第三段甚至第四段:分類別去攻擊各個(gè)邏輯錯(cuò)誤。(以因果關(guān)系類錯(cuò)誤為例)
One problem with the argument is that, the editorial observes a correlation between… and …, then concludes that the former is the cause of the latter. However, the editorial fails to rule out other possible explanations for…For example,… Any of these factors, or other social, political or economic factors, might lead to…Without ruling out all other such factors it is unfair to conclude that…
第五段:結(jié)尾段。
作者的結(jié)論似乎是合理的,但是通過論證,不是這樣的。因此作者在做出決定之前,應(yīng)該還要考慮其他情況。我們通過一篇文章作為實(shí)例來介紹Argument的論證步驟和論證方法以及文章結(jié)構(gòu)。
In the final analysis, the letter's author fails to adequately support the recommendation that…To bolster the argument, the arguer must provide detailed demographic/statistical evidence showing that…The author must also provide eviden

GRE寫作必備的高分句型
1、使用否定的時(shí)候,比如:什么什么對(duì)個(gè)人不好,對(duì)社會(huì)也不好。為什么不來個(gè)倒裝?Never/neither/nor/seldom/rarely/on no account + is…
2、當(dāng)你想表達(dá)“如果怎么怎么樣,就是另外一種情況”—虛擬語氣。為什么不來個(gè)虛擬倒裝?Were(Had) it…,something would......
3、強(qiáng)調(diào)句的使用:It is people who…/ it is something that…
4、讓步句式的使用:“無論什么樣的情況下”However[No matter how] whatever[no matter what]等等….
還有一種Cogent as this response is, it has some minor errors. Somewhat reasonable as the issue presents, it does not experience a case-by- case examination.
還有比較常用的although... It should be admittedly that…,however it does not follow that/
5、疑問句。用于開頭,來個(gè)設(shè)問句,在自問自答,提出自己觀點(diǎn);用于段中,比如舉設(shè)想的例子:Can you imagine that…?/ How can one imagine…?
6、定語從句(這個(gè)大家一般用的比較熟練,但是注意不要太羅嗦…society where(in which)…,/ something on which we depend (on which…based)
7、The more…the more…句式的使用。人們?cè)叫腋?,社?huì)越穩(wěn)定啦、等等。
8、Not only…but also的使用。很好用的,ETS經(jīng)典的6分范文:專才VS通才不就用了兩個(gè)嘛?
9、without的使用。從反面說,很是能夠增加字?jǐn)?shù)。還是那篇范文的結(jié)尾,就來了兩個(gè)非常妙的without。
10、還有一些比較常用的:There is no denying that…/ there is no doubt that…
11、還有imong的一個(gè)句子:So powerful the scandal is that Watergate became the talk of the world.如此..以至于..
GRE寫作疑問句的整理
從ETS公布的新gre考試寫作評(píng)分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)看,其評(píng)分主要注重以下三個(gè)方面:①、邏輯分析能力(要求insightful);②、文章的組織(要求well-organized);③、語言能力(要求standard written English; concise; varied structure等),而在新gre考試寫作中以疑問句開頭能夠吸引讀者,也容易抓住中心。所以以下是相關(guān)內(nèi)容介紹。
"Creating an appealing image has become more important in contemporary society than is the reality or truth behind that image."
Has creating an image become more important in our society than the reality or truth behind the image? I agree that image has become a more central concern, at least where short-term business or political success is at stake (=at risk). Nevertheless, I think that in the longer term mage ultimately yields to substance and fact.
個(gè)人認(rèn)為以問句為開頭是一種百用不厭的好方式,一來吸引了閱卷者的注意,二來又容易抓住中心。
精華:a central concern
be at stake
yield to = give up the position to……讓位于,被……主宰獲得更多gre考試咨詢點(diǎn)擊進(jìn)入>>>>天道免費(fèi)咨詢顧問或聯(lián)系QQ客服:
The important role of image is particularly evident in the business world. Consider, for example, today's automobile industry. American cars are becoming essentially identical to competing Japanese cars in nearly every mechanical and structural respect, as well as in price. Thus to compete effectively auto companies must now differentiate their products largelythrough image advertising, by conjuring up(=create) certain illusory benefits――such as machismo, status, sensibility, or fun. The increasing focus on image is also evident in the book-publishing business. Publishers are relying more and more on the power of their brands rather than the content of their books. Today mass-market books are supplanted within a year with products that are essential the same――except with fresh faces, rifles, and other promotional angles. I find quite telling the fact that today more and more book publishers are being acquired by large media companies. And the increasing importance of image is especially evident in the music industry, where originality, artistic interpretation, and technical proficiency have yielded almost entirely to sex appeal.
這一段主要是舉例說明image確實(shí)在當(dāng)今競(jìng)爭(zhēng)激烈的商界、演藝界重磅地位。關(guān)于image重要的例子其實(shí)是挺好聯(lián)系實(shí)際的。
The growing significance of image is also evident in the political realm, particularly when it comes to presidential politics. Admittedly, by its very nature politicking has always emphasized rhetoric and appearances above substance and fact. Yet since the invention of the camera presidential politicians have become increasingly concerned about their image. For example, Teddy Roosevelt was very careful never to be photographed wearing a tennis outfit, for fear that such photographs would serve to undermine his rough-rider image that won him his onlyterm in office. With the advent of television, image became even more central in presidential politics. After all, it was television that elected J.F.K. over Nixon. And our only two-term presidents in the television age were elected based largely on their image. Query whether Presidents Lincoln, Taft, or even F.D.R. would be elected today if pitted against the handsome leading man Reagan, or the suave and politically correct Clinton. After all, Lincoln was homely, Taft was obese, and F.D.R. was crippled.
其實(shí)在寫作之中加入一點(diǎn)幽默的成分,會(huì)有一些出人意料的效果。正如我們的toefl。
In the long term, however, the significance of image wanes considerably. The image of the Marlboro man ultimately gave way to the truth about the health hazards of cigarette smoking. Popular musical actors with nothing truly innovative to offer musically eventually disappear from the music scene. And anyone who frequents yard sales knows that today's best-selling books often become tomorrow's pulp. Even in politics, I think history has a knack for peeling away image to focus on real accomplishments. I think history will remember Teddy Roosevelt, for example, primarily for building the Panama Canal and for establishing our National Park System――and not for his rough-and-ready wardrobe.
