总的来说面试题都不难,但是如果想给招生官留下深刻印象还真不是一件容易的事,需要同学们好好准备。一般来说面试最起码会涵盖三个话题。第一个问题是关于学术背景的。具体会涉及到学术兴趣、最喜欢的一门课、你最喜欢的老师……第二个问题一般是你为什么申请这所学校/专业/系/实验室之类的问题。这两个问题的答案你都需要事前准备好并且练习几遍。回答这两类问题的难度在于,问题的答案都很标准化,基本上所有学生的回答都差不多,不太容易让自己显得多么与众不同。那么如果你想让老师印象深刻,你就要准备一些具体事例,尤其是表达了强烈的感情和意义的细节或者具体时刻。
举个例子,面试官的问题是: Why Wesleyan?可以考虑的回答如下
Leadership matters. I first became interested in Wesleyan after browsing the course offerings on Coursera. The president of Wesleyan, Michael Roth taught a course on “The Modern and Postmodern”. I signed up for it and found that his lectures were stimulating. useful and learned. It’s rare for a President to teach at all, but for him to put his course on a MOOC demonstrates that Wesleyan is ahead of the curve when it comes to education. I did not agree with all the views the President has on certain thinkers like Rousseau and Kant, but then that’s what a course should be—a challenge to my assumptions. I have now signed up for his newest MOOC "How To Change The World". Again it’s rare that a President would choose such a title without irony and then go on to explore how we can as he says, "develop \u0026#39;social goods\u0026#39; and use them to create networks of progressive change. "I believe in his vision for change, his vision for the future of education, and believe that his leadership will help Wesleyan continue to be a leader in liberal arts education in the world.
另一个常见的问题是an activity that’s important to you。讲故事是回答这个问题的好选择,同时要注意细节。比如说你是团队的一员,你们一起做了什么,等等。不一定非要选择多么大的故事。范例:
