有了A LEVEL的成績(jī),還需要雅思成績(jī).牛津劍橋面試摘自華老師《觸手可及的世界頂級(jí)名?！詣虼髮W(xué)本科申請(qǐng)為例》首先，我們先來(lái)看看他們官方的介紹，對(duì)面試先有一個(gè)大體的了解。 先看劍橋大學(xué)：Contrary to what you may have heard there are no ‘tricks’ at interviews. Interviewers know you may be nervous. They are not trying to catch you out, but to challenge you to think for yourself. Often there are no right or wrong answers to the questions, and the way you arrive at an answer may be of greater interest than the answer itself. The key thing to remember is to be yourself.The exact form and length of interviews varies from College to College, and between subjects, but typically you will have two interviews of 20–30 minutes. Your College will send you full details, explaining what will be involved. You may be asked to stay overnight, in which case the College will provide accommodation.You will probably want to prepare for your interview but it is not a good thing to be ‘over-rehearsed’ – it will be obvious to the interviewers. It can, however, be helpful to have some experience of discussing your work and your interests with a stranger, and to get some practice at expressing your ideas and opinions as if you are at an interview.We would also encourage you to read around the subject you have applied for, and explore beyond the specifications of the qualifications you are studying. You’ll need to know about major developments in the subject, and be able to explain why you want to study it and why you want to study it at Cambridge. If you are applying for a subject that is new to you, such as Law, you will need to demonstrate that you have undertaken some research and know what it will entail.Interviewers may also ask about other interests or experience that you mentioned in your application. If you have expressed a particular interest - in an author perhaps, or a recent article or programme, or some work or travelling you've done - expect to be asked about it.再看牛津大學(xué)：You will be interviewed at the college you applied to, or, if you submitted an open application, at your allocated college. Most college interviews take roughly the same form, although individual tutors conduct their interviews in the way they find most useful for assessing their candidates. Many tutors will ask all their applicants to a brief meeting before the interviews begin. Here, they will tell you how the interviews will be conducted and perhaps offer a few words of advice.You will be interviewed in your college by the tutors who will be responsible for your academic career if you are offered a place at Oxford. They are experts in one aspect of the degree course you are applying to study. If you are applying for a Joint Honours course, you should expect to be interviewed by tutors from each of the component disciplines. Most applicants will have one or two interviews in their college, lasting 20-30 minutes each. In some colleges, candidates will also attend short general interviews with a senior fellow. In addition, you may be invited to an interview in another college (to see a tutor who teaches topics in a joint course for your college for instance, or, in the case of Engineering or Mathematics, because all candidates coming to Oxford for interview are seen by tutors from two separate colleges).It is not usual to have college interviews with a panel of interviewers (three or more), but in some colleges tutors in joint courses (PPE for example) find it useful to interview in a small team. If you are to be interviewed by a panel, you will be told about this in advance of the interview. In other subjects (Human Sciences, Chemistry, Experimental Psychology and PPP for example), candidates may be invited to faculty interviews. These are arranged so that as many college tutors as possible can see you in the least time-consuming way and will probably involve a small panel. Don't be put off by this: it is part of Oxford's commitment to try to make sure that the most promising applicants across the whole University are offered the available places. In this same spirit, many applicants are asked to interviews at second and third colleges. You should regard these as further opportunities to make an impression. It will not mean that your first college is not interested in offering you a place.As you would expect, the purpose of any interview is to assess your understanding of or potential for your subject, and to give you the opportunity of explaining why you are committed to studying it for three or four years. The basis for this discussion will usually be the subjects you are currently studying at school or college. However, you are also likely to be offered opportunities to show whether you read around the subject and whether you have a general interest in it outside your syllabus.If you are applying for a course not normally studied at school (such as Medicine or Law, Biochemistry or Oriental Languages), you should be prepared to show some background knowledge of the subject, though you will not be expected to have detailed understanding of specific or technical topics. You may be asked what role your subject plays in society and how you came to be interested in it. For these subjects, the topics for discussion are likely to allow you to demonstrate the skills needed by an undergraduate: the ability to use information to construct your own opinions, the willingness and ability to analyse and, in the Sciences and Mathematics, facility in problem solving. It is quite likely, especially in Arts subjects, that you will be given some material to read immediately before the interview. Don't waste your time trying to guess what questions you will be asked on it. Concentrate on reading it very carefully; you will be advised if there is anything special on which you need to focus.If you are asked a factual question about which you know nothing or haven't considered before, don't panic. You could say honestly 'We haven't covered that topic yet' or 'I haven't read much about that'. However, in many subjects the application of logic and common sense to an idea you will never have encountered before is what the questions are designed to test. Allow the tutors to lead you if necessary and ask if you don't understand a question.Interviewers are not trying to make you feel ignorant or to catch you out. What they are looking for is how well you can explain what you do know, and whether you can think your way through a new problem or argue your position.You may have heard that much of the interview is concerned with general conversation about you and your interests. It is not. Tutors have a relatively short time to assess your potential and will concentrate mostly on your subject and your suitability to study it in Oxford. 'Small talk' is not required.從這里我們可以發(fā)現(xiàn)，所謂的牛津劍橋的面試并不是像一些報(bào)刊雜志捕風(fēng)捉影嘩眾取寵的報(bào)道或者宣傳的那樣，通篇都是什么怪題偏題什么的。這實(shí)在是在誤導(dǎo)學(xué)生！我們有一些學(xué)生家長(zhǎng)在申請(qǐng)過(guò)后告訴我說(shuō)，我們也很擔(dān)心，在學(xué)校組織的面試輔導(dǎo)之外，也專門(mén)地收集了一些怪題讓小孩做并讓小孩預(yù)先作準(zhǔn)備，可是小孩回來(lái)后告訴我們，問(wèn)的都是普通的問(wèn)題和一些專業(yè)問(wèn)題，根本沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)傳言中的怪題偏題！ 下面我列舉一些我們的學(xué)生在牛津與劍橋的面試中被問(wèn)到的問(wèn)題，希望這些“全真題”，而不是“仿真題”能夠起到“以正視聽(tīng)”的效果。 Do you need scholarshipHow to prove a number is irrational What is the cell membrane structure What will happen if the surrounding of a animal cell is pure water What maintains the water potential inside the cell What is the length of a cell membrane How to define acid and base What do you understand the subject biochemistry.

Individual and small-scale aspects of your application or interviews are very unlikely in themselves to lessen your chances – in other words, if you feel you could have answered an individual question better, remember that the answer you have given will almost certainly not be crucial " Aim to arrive in plenty of time and make sure that you know where you are going " If you haven't understood a question or don't know an answer, don't be afraid to say so – you’re very unlikely to be ‘marked down’ for this " If you need to take your time thinking about your response to a question, feel free to do so " We are looking for content, not style – so don't worry if at times your answers are hesitant " Be willing to explore issues discursively in your answers – in other words, explain your thinking " If you feel you've handled a particular question badly, don't worry about it – put it out of your mind and concentrate on the next one " If interviewed by a panel, address your answer to a particular question predominantly, but not exclusively, to the person asking the question " Keep a copy of your application form, and any other material you have submitted, and cast an eye over it in advance of your interviews " Wear something you feel comfortable in and, as interviews usually happen in the middle of winter, warm! 再看牛津大學(xué)：Be prepared - but not too prepared!There are no special tricks to preparing for an Oxford interview. Interviewers can often tell if a candidate has been over-coached by well-meaning teachers or parents. It is important that you demonstrate that you can think for yourself and that you are answering precisely the question you have been asked rather than repeating an answer you prepared earlier to a different question.On the other hand, there are some things you can do beforehand which will help to make you feel more confident:1. Think about the obvious questions that are often asked at the beginning of an interview to help you settle down, and how you will answer them - why do you want to come to Oxford and why have you chosen this particular subject2. Re-read copies of any written work that you have submitted and think how you might expand on what you wrote. Re-read your personal statement. 3. In Arts subjects, make sure that you have read something outside the prescribed A-level texts and have thought critically about what you have read. For scientists, an interest in the relevance of your subject to the world at large can be demonstrated by reading the popular science periodicals - but make sure that you have something sensible to say about what you have read. You can encourage the tutor in the direction of specific topics you would like to talk about by mentioning your interest in them in your personal statement. 4. If you are going to have a practice interview, try to use a teacher you don't know very well - that way you won't be too 'at home'. It is very important to practise feeling comfortable when talking about yourself and your work in an unfamiliar environment. More generally, you can encourage yourself to take a critical view of ideas and arguments that you encounter at school, in newspapers, or on television or radio. 5. Of the time you spend in Oxford, only a couple of hours will be filled with interviews and tests. Make sure that you have a good book or some schoolwork to do while you are waiting. The worst thing you can do is to sit and worry about the interviews in advance and replay them to yourself afterwards! 6. Finally, make sure that you are wide awake and alert for your interviews. A quiet night is better preparation than a wild party! 首先，盡量放輕松，不要太緊張，也不要太興奮！你可以把面試就理解成一個(gè)大家相互見(jiàn)面然后來(lái)分析你是否適合牛津劍橋以及牛津劍橋是否適合你的這樣一個(gè)雙向的過(guò)程。然后，擺正心態(tài)，前面已經(jīng)提到，牛津劍橋并不意味著一切，可以就把他們看成一次普通的對(duì)自己學(xué)過(guò)的知識(shí)、隨機(jī)應(yīng)變能力、解決實(shí)際問(wèn)題能力等的一個(gè)練習(xí)或者檢閱的機(jī)會(huì)。第三，自信。許多學(xué)生在面對(duì)牛津劍橋的教授的時(shí)候會(huì)特別失去自信，特別是一些學(xué)生的英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)欠缺一些的學(xué)生，可能見(jiàn)到外國(guó)人就會(huì)緊張，就更需要進(jìn)行這方面的練習(xí)。學(xué)生可以想自己是很聰明的，牛津或者劍橋一定是對(duì)你有濃厚的興趣的，否則他們不會(huì)給你發(fā)來(lái)面試邀請(qǐng)信，否則那些工作繁忙時(shí)間寶貴的牛津劍橋教授不會(huì)花30分鐘在你身上，甚至他們還遠(yuǎn)渡重洋來(lái)看你。有了以上這些心理方面的調(diào)整后，你現(xiàn)在應(yīng)該已經(jīng)可以安靜下來(lái)，仔細(xì)地來(lái)看看究竟應(yīng)該從哪些方面來(lái)進(jìn)行準(zhǔn)備。我們把所有的面試問(wèn)題分成兩大類，一般性問(wèn)題（General Questions）和專業(yè)問(wèn)題（Subject-based Questions）。下面我們分別給出一些進(jìn)行面試準(zhǔn)備的方向，供大家參考：一般性問(wèn)題（General Questions）準(zhǔn)備方向：1．閱讀自己的申請(qǐng)表格，UCAS申請(qǐng)表格和牛津大學(xué)或者劍橋大學(xué)專門(mén)的申請(qǐng)表格（前面已經(jīng)論述，這是牛津大學(xué)和劍橋大學(xué)在申請(qǐng)的時(shí)候的一個(gè)獨(dú)特的地方），分別是OAF（Oxford Application Form）和CAF（Cambridge Application Form）。你可以想象，這是到面試開(kāi)始為止，教授們手上唯一的關(guān)于你的全面介紹材料，所以，他們?cè)诿嬖嚹阒?，是一定?huì)仔細(xì)閱讀的，甚至一開(kāi)始的問(wèn)題可能就會(huì)從表格中他們感興趣的信息著手。你可以想象你在雅思考試的時(shí)候，你的雅思口語(yǔ)老師也一定會(huì)建議你進(jìn)口語(yǔ)考場(chǎng)前先讀一遍自己的申請(qǐng)表，道理是一樣的，何況在你的申請(qǐng)表中有更加充分的信息，比如，在你的UCAS申請(qǐng)表中，有你的個(gè)人陳述，已經(jīng)取得的A-Level和IGCSE成績(jī)，下學(xué)年要學(xué)習(xí)的課程，申請(qǐng)的牛津劍橋?qū)W院和專業(yè)，老師的推薦信等等，在你的牛津劍橋申請(qǐng)表中，更有解釋你為什么要申請(qǐng)牛津或者劍橋的額外的個(gè)人陳述，老師推薦的你為什么適合入讀牛津或者劍橋的額外的推薦信等等重要信息。根據(jù)我們的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，教授們經(jīng)常喜歡在你的個(gè)人陳述中挖掘問(wèn)題來(lái)問(wèn)學(xué)生，所以，有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的面試輔導(dǎo)老師應(yīng)該善于從學(xué)生的個(gè)人陳述中設(shè)計(jì)問(wèn)題來(lái)跟學(xué)生練習(xí)。有一些學(xué)校老師寫(xiě)的推薦信，無(wú)論是UCAS表中的推薦信，還是牛津劍橋表中的額外的推薦信，都不給學(xué)生看到，其實(shí)這完全是沒(méi)有必要的，特別是學(xué)生在準(zhǔn)備面試的過(guò)程中。學(xué)生只有掌握信息越多，才越能準(zhǔn)備的充分。2．盡量多地用英語(yǔ)練習(xí)面試，以達(dá)到熟能生巧的效果。每次都找一些相關(guān)的話題，比如為什么學(xué)習(xí)這個(gè)專業(yè)，為什么選擇這個(gè)學(xué)院，為什么選擇牛津大學(xué)或者劍橋大學(xué)，我的理想，我的性格，我的興趣愛(ài)好，我會(huì)給大學(xué)帶去的貢獻(xiàn)，等等。練習(xí)的時(shí)候注意觀點(diǎn)與問(wèn)題的呼應(yīng)，語(yǔ)言的流利，語(yǔ)法的正確，發(fā)音的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，等等。但有一點(diǎn)需要指出的是，練習(xí)的時(shí)候盡量不要找同學(xué)來(lái)對(duì)練，因?yàn)檫@樣容易練著練著，大家的答案都差不多了。。而每次來(lái)中國(guó)進(jìn)行面試的教授每次就那么幾個(gè)，如果是同樣的教授面試你和你的搭檔的話，情況可能就不妙了。3．盡量去了解國(guó)外的文化習(xí)俗、甚至起居飲食等，以讓教授確信你作為一個(gè)國(guó)際小留學(xué)生，確實(shí)是做了非常充分的準(zhǔn)備去出國(guó)留學(xué)。4．注意與外國(guó)人的良好的交際習(xí)慣的培養(yǎng)，比如，交談時(shí)眼神的對(duì)視，禮貌禮節(jié)，著裝準(zhǔn)備，申辯的習(xí)慣，回答問(wèn)題的習(xí)慣，等等，總之，讓他們與你的溝通感覺(jué)愉快。專業(yè)問(wèn)題（Subject-based Questions）準(zhǔn)備方向：1．仔細(xì)閱讀大學(xué)的介紹書(shū)，學(xué)院的介紹書(shū)，專業(yè)的介紹，經(jīng)常訪問(wèn)大學(xué)網(wǎng)站，等等，在這些資料中你將會(huì)了解牛津劍橋的特色，教學(xué)方法，學(xué)制安排，甚至教授的簡(jiǎn)歷、教授科目、研究興趣、發(fā)表文章、出版書(shū)目等有用信息。2．了解申請(qǐng)的專業(yè)領(lǐng)域內(nèi)知名的教授，他們各自的貢獻(xiàn)，以及他們的貢獻(xiàn)對(duì)這個(gè)學(xué)科發(fā)展的意義3．通過(guò)書(shū)籍、報(bào)紙、雜志、網(wǎng)絡(luò)等渠道廣泛地閱讀相關(guān)的申請(qǐng)專業(yè)的信息，特別是最近的發(fā)展4．詳細(xì)了解申請(qǐng)專業(yè)相關(guān)基礎(chǔ)科目知識(shí)點(diǎn)，基本概念，理論的論證過(guò)程，這些往往看似簡(jiǎn)單，事實(shí)上卻比具體的解題過(guò)程復(fù)雜得多。而牛津劍橋的面試，已經(jīng)非常明確的告訴學(xué)生，“How you think is more important than what you know”，從學(xué)生所問(wèn)到的問(wèn)題來(lái)看，問(wèn)對(duì)基本概念和定義的理解的題目也遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)多于具體解某道習(xí)題，而且，即使是在解題的過(guò)程中，學(xué)生也是隨時(shí)會(huì)被打斷，被問(wèn)到為什么會(huì)想到這一步，這一步的理論依據(jù)等等。而在面試的過(guò)程中題目是否完全做完，并不重要，教授也不會(huì)依此來(lái)判分。這些看似奇怪的申請(qǐng)程序，仔細(xì)推敲一下，還是不難體會(huì)出這些頂級(jí)大學(xué)的匠心獨(dú)運(yùn)的！所有以上方面的問(wèn)題，結(jié)合申請(qǐng)的具體的專業(yè)，和以往的面試問(wèn)題，學(xué)生就可以著手進(jìn)行面試的準(zhǔn)備和聯(lián)系了。還需要注意的一點(diǎn)是在準(zhǔn)備的過(guò)程中需要邊聯(lián)系邊整理邊完善，有意識(shí)地把一些準(zhǔn)備的過(guò)程中的一些感覺(jué)好的回答問(wèn)題的答案記錄下來(lái)，并最后整理成答案，然后再親友經(jīng)驗(yàn)的老師給你的答案進(jìn)行修改潤(rùn)色，在真實(shí)面試的臨近階段，就慢慢體會(huì)這些答案就可以了。面試的輔導(dǎo)過(guò)程讓我也讓我的學(xué)生們非常真切地感覺(jué)到了“授人以魚(yú)不如授人以漁”的道理。因?yàn)槊嬖嚨膯?wèn)題真是防不勝防，什么問(wèn)題都會(huì)出現(xiàn)，它隨面試教授、申請(qǐng)專業(yè)、申請(qǐng)學(xué)院等的不同而不同，而且，許多的問(wèn)題非常個(gè)性化，所以，老師在對(duì)學(xué)生進(jìn)行面試輔導(dǎo)的時(shí)候，千萬(wàn)不要抱著什么“押題”的心態(tài)，或者給“標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案”的方法，而一定要教會(huì)學(xué)生如何去答題，如何在遇到陌生的題目的時(shí)候去隨機(jī)應(yīng)變，答出漂亮的機(jī)靈的答案。所以，可以這么說(shuō)，面試的準(zhǔn)備，背后對(duì)輔導(dǎo)老師也是一種挑戰(zhàn)。所幸，在長(zhǎng)期的面試輔導(dǎo)中，結(jié)合多年收集下來(lái)的面試真題以及成功或者學(xué)生的面試反饋收集，我們已經(jīng)開(kāi)發(fā)出了一套行之有效的一對(duì)一面試輔導(dǎo)課程體系。由于面試的過(guò)程是一個(gè)非常個(gè)性化，操作性也很強(qiáng)，隨機(jī)性也很強(qiáng)的一個(gè)過(guò)程，它有的時(shí)候是必須在面試的過(guò)程中去準(zhǔn)備并且去慢慢體會(huì)的，所以，對(duì)牛津劍橋面試就簡(jiǎn)單介紹到這里。Interviewn Interviewers will be looking for interest and potential as well as proven academic ability: we are more concerned with how you will develop during your degree than with your having fully-formed ideas before you start.n What is important is your academic ability, intellectual potential and your enthusiasm to reach the frontiers of knowledge in your subject.
