如今有出国读研究生意向的学生中选择商科的比例越来越高。而各大美国商学院对考试成绩的要求也从只看GMAT放宽到了同时接受GRE/GMAT成绩。今天小编给大家带来出国留学读商科研究生GRE/GMAT考试选择建议 ,希望能够帮助到大家,下面小编就和大家分享,来欣赏一下吧。
【专家指点】出国留学读商科研究生GRE/GMAT考试选择建议
选择GRE/GMAT前先回答这三个问题
1. 作为申请目标的商学员是否都接受GRE成绩?
这个问题的前提是考生根据学校选择考试,而非先考完试再根据分数去找学校。对于想要读研,特别是MBA项目的考生来说,出国留学,需要有明确的目标,想要读什么专业,在哪里读,想去哪些学校,都应该有明确的答案。如果连学校都还没选好,就盲目地参加考试,把考试成绩当成储备资格,那么如果遭遇到考试成绩不对口的情况,无疑就会十分被动,也浪费了报名的经费和备考投入的时间和精力。虽然如今大部分商学院已经开始接受GRE成绩作为入学申请所需成绩之一,但也有极少学校仍然只接受GMAT成绩,因此考生还是需要先明确要求才能做出正确选择。
2. 作为申请目标的商科学校对GRE和GMAT成绩能否一碗水端平?
这个问题与其说是问题,更不如说是一种现象的揭示和提醒。就目前美国各大商科院校的招生情况而言,许多学校对于GRE和GMAT分数的看重程度,其实还很难做到一碗水端平。毕竟GMAT考试作为专为商科院校招生而设计的考试,其专业对口性的确仍在GRE之上,因此更为商科学校所看重也在情理之中。而面对水平相近的GRE和GMAT成绩,倾向性明显的学院会如何选择,显然是可以预见的。那么考生如何评估学校的成绩倾向性呢?查询一下历年录取学生中GRE和GMAT参考人数比例就能一目了然了。
3. 是否已经决定了非商科不读还是仍在观望中?
这个问题是帮助考生从长期规划的角度来做出选择。GMAT成绩对于商科院校的申请可谓无往不利,但在其他专业上就没有太多的适用性了。而GRE考试的使用范围和可选申请专业则更为广泛。如果考生不想在一棵树上吊死,想要给予自己更多的选择余地和空间,以后从事的行业也可能并不局限于金融业,那么选择申请面更广的GRE考试,也许才是较为稳妥的决定。
GRE写作的作文结构整理
第一段:开头段。主要是归纳论点,说明论点有问题,存在逻辑漏洞,准备发起进攻。
第一层:
This argument concludes/recommends/argues that…
第二层:
To support this conclusion the writer cites…/points out that…
第三层:
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:分类别去攻击各个逻辑错误。(以因果关系类错误为例)
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:结尾段。
作者的结论似乎是合理的,但是通过论证,不是这样的。因此作者在做出决定之前,应该还要考虑其他情况。我们通过一篇文章作为实例来介绍Argument的论证步骤和论证方法以及文章结构。
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写作必备的高分句型
1、使用否定的时候,比如:什么什么对个人不好,对社会也不好。为什么不来个倒装?Never/neither/nor/seldom/rarely/on no account + is…
2、当你想表达“如果怎么怎么样,就是另外一种情况”—虚拟语气。为什么不来个虚拟倒装?Were(Had) it…,something would......
3、强调句的使用:It is people who…/ it is something that…
4、让步句式的使用:“无论什么样的情况下”However[No matter how] whatever[no matter what]等等….
还有一种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.
还有比较常用的although... It should be admittedly that…,however it does not follow that/
5、疑问句。用于开头,来个设问句,在自问自答,提出自己观点;用于段中,比如举设想的例子:Can you imagine that…?/ How can one imagine…?
6、定语从句(这个大家一般用的比较熟练,但是注意不要太罗嗦…society where(in which)…,/ something on which we depend (on which…based)
7、The more…the more…句式的使用。人们越幸福,社会越稳定啦、等等。
8、Not only…but also的使用。很好用的,ETS经典的6分范文:专才VS通才不就用了两个嘛?
9、without的使用。从反面说,很是能够增加字数。还是那篇范文的结尾,就来了两个非常妙的without。
10、还有一些比较常用的:There is no denying that…/ there is no doubt that…
11、还有imong的一个句子:So powerful the scandal is that Watergate became the talk of the world.如此..以至于..
GRE写作疑问句的整理
从ETS公布的新gre考试写作评分标准看,其评分主要注重以下三个方面:①、逻辑分析能力(要求insightful);②、文章的组织(要求well-organized);③、语言能力(要求standard written English; concise; varied structure等),而在新gre考试写作中以疑问句开头能够吸引读者,也容易抓住中心。所以以下是相关内容介绍。
"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.
个人认为以问句为开头是一种百用不厌的好方式,一来吸引了阅卷者的注意,二来又容易抓住中心。
精华:a central concern
be at stake
yield to = give up the position to……让位于,被……主宰获得更多gre考试咨询点击进入>>>>天道免费咨询顾问或联系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.
这一段主要是举例说明image确实在当今竞争激烈的商界、演艺界重磅地位。关于image重要的例子其实是挺好联系实际的。
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.
其实在写作之中加入一点幽默的成分,会有一些出人意料的效果。正如我们的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.
