If you want to applyOxbridgeIt is recommended that all students must take the G test, choose the GMAT test for business majors (except economics majors), and choose the GRE test for non-business majors.

There are several possible scenarios for GRE requirements at U.S. institutions: required, optional not required, recommended encouraged, and not accepted.

Third, to increase their competitiveness, G is still indispensable. Business majors such as HKU and Hong Kong Chinese currently require GMAT scores, while other institutions are highly recommended.

I thinkReading and listeningThere are 2 points for the main ability to pass the exam:

Question-making skills (this depends on the normal English questions in the previous English subject, I think I should be able to practice).

Usually accumulated (divided into themes and other types).

TOEFLDifficultyOne of the questions is that in addition to daily life, there are also specific things that are not usually accessible and unused, such as biological knowledge, art knowledge, etc. For others, you may be able to read and understand them by accumulating them on a daily basis, but if you don't know some of the more important words, you may have difficulty reading and listening.

For example, if a bird name is a proper noun, if this type of word comes up and you don't know what it is, it can be confusing to understand the whole text. This part requires extra effort to memorize thisSubject vocabularyso that they do not have an obstacle to doing the questions when they encounter them.

ReadMy way of doing the questions is to look at the questions directly, and then go to the corresponding original text to find a place to answer the questions. The advantage is that the question will be done quickly, but the disadvantage is that the speed will drop significantly when choosing 3 out of 6, and you still have to read through the whole text in the end. ListeningIf you don't understand, it is recommended to listen more (I don't know if it will work because I have no experience).

Spoken languageAlthough the score is low, I don't think it's because the strength is not enough, and the question still depends on a certain amount of luck. Of course, I can guarantee that you will not be wrong to do more example questions, because you can see that many of them are repetitive or have minor modifications in the past questions. Speak independentlyYou can say a lot to the question bank, think of each one with a template-like idea, and then answer.

WritingThe basic premise of scoring in writing is to avoid grammatical mistakes, such as improper use of clauses, confusion in tenses, or grammatical errors in spelling of words. After I'm done, I'll be dedicated to it as wellLeave on for 1-2minGo through your own answers to check for obvious grammatical errors.

In writingRead the articleshould not describe its content too briefly, but should put forward a more detailed description; Use more conjunctions when connecting within segments to make a paragraph more logical. Small compositionYou can rely on the template, because the topics discussed may vary greatly, but how to unfold, which part to write what content to achieve which purpose can be roughly determined, you can try to make a template, and then write according to the idea of such a template every time you write, and then you will not be panicked and don't know where to start the pen. Specific templates can be built according to individual ideas.
