I am Hu Xmiao, a senior sister of Beijing Jiaotong University, who participated in the 2019 Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts and Design Master's Examination for the Master of Environment and Art, and achieved the second place in the overall ranking. In fact, I decided to go to Tsinghua University for graduate students without much thought, it was just a matter of a moment when my brain was hot, in fact, I don't need too many reasons and concerns to pursue my dreams, and daring to think and dare to do is the first step towards successI hope that the younger students will not be timid, determine the goal as soon as possible and start preparing as soon as possible, do not hesitate to waste time in vain, and once the goal is clear, we must start to have some more in-depth understanding and analysis of the situation of Tsinghua University's postgraduate entrance examinationHere I would like to share with you some of my own understandings.
Analysis of the retest score cut-off:
Through the score line announced this year, it is not difficult for everyone to find that the hand-drawn line has increased from 120 points to 125 points over the years, and the total score line only needs 340 points, I think this is a trend, the Academy of Fine Arts is more willing to have strong professional ability, hand-drawn students with deep skills, not students who rely on cultural courses to improve their scores, and it is worth mentioning that the scoring standards of historical theory are also much stricter than every year, which confirms the conjecture that the two professional courses are becoming more and more important, so,I hope that the younger students will seize the time to prepare early, and the professional improvement will not be effective in a short time.
About the English language
about english
In 2019, the school stipulated that only professional masters were recruited, so everyone took the English II exam, and the scores of students in this year's re-examination were distributed between 65 and 85 pointsI suggest that it is safer to maintain it at 70+, there will be some pressure marks in the subjective questions in Beijing, and candidates from other provinces should remember to put more effort into composition and translation.
In the process of reviewing English, in fact, it is just memorizing words in the early stage and brushing reading questions in the later stage, especially for students with average foundation, memorizing words in the early stage is very time-consuming and difficult to adhere to, but once the habit of memorizing words every day becomes less painful, the scallop app I use, and other word software should have similar functions,During the period, I read some foreign newspaper articles, and some high-frequency words will be memorized naturally, and it is recommended that you take the fourth and sixth level exams at the same time to simulate the atmosphere of the exam and check your answering speedIn fact, during my preparation for the exam, I can clearly feel that with my review, the four or six grades of papers have become simpler, which can also enhance the confidence of the studentsA few weeks before the exam, you can do a set of real questions, buy the postgraduate English answer sheet online, and simulate it in strict accordance with the exam timeIn this way, it can avoid the situation that many students in the examination room have no time concept and cannot finish the paper or fill in the wrong position in the size of the essay.
About politics
about politics
The political score will not be much worse, about 60-70 points, I am a science student in high school, and the political foundation is very poor, so I applied for New Oriental's political class, from the basic class, intensive class, eye-catching class to the brushing class, for students who are good at politics, there is actually no need to waste too much time, but if you are like me with a weak foundation, try to register for the class (but not use the boutique small class or the like) The teacher talks and reads the handouts by yourself are completely two feelings, and the teacher's lecture will feel very clear and thorough, which is more conducive to understanding, Students with a good foundation should also do more multiple-choice questions over the years, and summarize the common test points according to the year, this year's Xiao Xiurong is still very easy to use, and it is recommended to do Xiao Ba's multiple-choice questions and Xiao Si's full set of papers.
About historiography
about historical throry
This year's history is seriously pressurized, the score is about 90-115, this year's exam questions are not difficult, but new requirements are put forward for candidates, not only blindly reading, but alsoTo add your own understanding, it is best to sort out your own set of context, such as what are the common characteristics of the handicrafts of a dynasty, what changes have been made in the development and evolution of a handicraft in the past dynasties, horizontal and vertical combing at the same time, and the same is true for design historyWhat is the background reason for the rise of a movement, and how it inspired the next movement, the history teacher of the institution teaches us to look at history as a wonderful story and sort it out as a whole, so that of course we will have more understanding, and we can play a richer understanding in the topic than the average student. In the later stage, you must practice your hand speed, and you must reach three hours of non-stop writing during the exam, and the number of words is enough to add the content to the topic to get a high score.
About hand-drawn
about hand drawn
Initial Examination:
Hand-painted preliminary test everyone is basically concentrated between 126-128, the score difference is very small, but the number is very small, in order to become a minority, the younger students must prepare in advance, Tsinghua's paper is large, three hours to complete, I think my simulation training in Shuimu Zhishang is very necessary, one can see the level of outstanding students, gradually promote themselves to narrow the gap, and the teacher will have a lot of help to improve the program, two can have a teacher to urge the timing, all students many mock exams, It's completely different from the feeling of timing yourself, and it forces you to make a breakthrough. I suggest that you can sign up for the postgraduate examination institution with your classmates, and a few friends urge each other together (I signed up with four classmates, and finally three people entered the re-examination), there will be a good effect, Tsinghua's hand-drawn relevance is very important, if the set of drawings is far-fetched, it is easy to fail, it is recommended that students accumulate more elements, and flexibly change when they arrive at the examination room, in the preliminary examination, it is very important to add completeness to the topic, and the re-examination is more inclined to the wonderful scheme on the basis of the first two.
Retest:
The hand-drawn re-examination is a 100-point system, the score is concentrated in 84-88 points, which accounts for a large proportion of the total score calculation, and it is an important exam that must not be relaxed. In addition, I hope that students will accumulate more good cases, there are many excellent designer works in Gude and Archdaily, including some designs, there are many references.
Portfolio & Interview
works collection/interview
The preparation time of the portfolio is very short, and the works in the undergraduate are still very naïve, and a lot of revisions are needed, so it is recommended that the younger students participate in more competitionsDuring the production of the portfolio, Mizuki's seniors took the trouble to answer many of our questions and provided a variety of excellent portfolio works, so that the final product could be greatly improved.
The interview is one of the most feared parts of the class, but I recommend not worrying too muchThe judges are very approachable, and they also know that the students are students with little experience, so they will not deliberately make it difficult, and they can answer freely if they have a good grasp of the basic knowledge. Of course, it is also necessary to conduct some surveys on the interview teacher and see more of the teacher's research direction, and the seniors of the institution let us pay attention to the topic of "the application of color in the landscape", which appeared in the interview.
The above is the experience I can share with you, this is just a general direction, how to work hard or depends on everyone, the postgraduate entrance examination is a long war, I hope that students will not be complacent at the beginning, and gradually slack off in the later stage, we must start from the beginning, every day to have new knowledge and new harvest, every day to make themselves better, in the days of Mizuki, I have received the teaching of multiple teachers, and the students who work together to motivate each other, is the biggest reason why I can achieve such results, I can still recall the sound of the teacher staring at the time in the classroom and shouting "There is still an hour", and there are works that progress every day on the whole wall when evaluating paintings, as well as Tsinghua yogurt that painted Brother Qiang when he was the most tired, in the drips, I feel that all the efforts are worth it, I hope that the younger brothers and sisters can also realize their dreams, I believe that all the efforts will be rewarded, and the senior sisters are waiting for you in Tsinghua!
