关于录取过程 https://bbs.gter.net/thread-619066-1-1.htmlIf some posters have received acceptances to a program to which youhave applied, and you have not yet heard from that program, please donot assume that means you have not been accepted, or have not been funded.

We rank candidates, and notify our top candidatesfirst, extending offers of fellowships and assistantships. We must waituntil they accept or decline to know whether we can move to thenext-ranked candidates, and extend offers to them.   Forexample, my program has notified our top two candidates, but we arestill in the midst of ranking the rest. No one except those two havereceived either offers or awards.

For those of you who receive emails from a department reporting thatyou've "been recommended for admission," please be assured that thismeans you've been admitted to your program, providing the GraduateSchool confirms the accuracy of all items on your application.

Departments, not the Graduate School, determine admissions. You willreceive the actual paperwork from the Graduate School in a bit. Administrivia takes some time.

It seems incredibly unlikely to me that any program would extend anoffer to a candidate during a visit/interview. If candidates are beinginterviewed, that would mean to me that all applications are stillbeing considered and all candidates are still in the midst of beingranked.

We have X amount of funded lines each year. The committee meets, andranks candidates. This takes a couple of meetings. Sometimes, thedepartment agrees on the very top candidates early. As the director ofthe grad program, I push for early consensus on a couple of candidates,because then I can notify these top candidates with offers andincentives. They have, like everyone else, until April 15 toaccept/decline, although in my experience, none of my candidates haveEVER waited until that late to decide.

I hope to encouragethem to accept/decline much earlier. That way, I can move down ourranked list and extend offers. I also know that one program in my fielddoes not notify until the first week of April. So if a candidate tellsme s/he is waiting to hear from University of Late Notifications, Iknow I'm going to have to wait on that candidate. *Sigh of resignation.*

At the next committee meeting, I am going to push my faculty to get allrankings completed. I also want them to identify all of the declinedcandidates. That will enable me to send that list to the GraduateSchool immediately, so they can send out those letters. And, moreimportantly to me, I can notify the accepted candidates of admission. Iwill not be able to give them any information about offers/awards,however, until I hear from my top candidates. I find this distressing,since I want to convey enthusiasm for each accepted candidate, but myenthusiasm sometimes is not "heard" unless it is immediately backed upby an award.

But I must wait for our top choices to make theirdecisions. I COMMUNICATE with them in the interim, and I expect (andreceive) honesty from them. Often, they tell me they are waiting forUniversity of YZ, and that's fair enough. I know when University of YZnotifies. When they finally hear from U of YZ, the candidate contactsme, and I can move down the list, if necessary, and call to extendoffers to the next-ranked candidate.

My department'sapplicant pool is deep enough (and our program is strong enough) sothat we always have a couple of accepted students who commit to attendwithout support. I sometimes have the pleasure of calling one of thesestudents a few days before April 15 with an offer of support. I lovethose calls.

I do hope this helps to demystify the process a bit.

65# Stefana 多谢S！看到的有些晚了~ 真的很惭愧，一直没能很好地协调专业课和G 之间的关系，所以才纠结了这么久，但是情况还是很糟糕，是要反思一下了。

三个月：实战真题 6 b) `9 x% L" N; x" i% B
　　目前跟GRE有关的真题分成三个部分：类比反义、阅读和数学。这些资料，市面上均有销售，或者参加培训班，也有资料的赠送。合理利用这些宝贵的资源，对提高考试成绩，有很大帮助。 * J# X- Z- X- W9 l9 l! }
　　第一个月：阅读优先
* u: `8 E; C1 h. o7 F9 }0 f5 W　　阅读是GRE考试中最令人头疼的部分，因此，阅读的练习，尽量放在前面做。在两个月背单词之后，就是我们做真题这3个月的开始，这一阶段，希望大家把阅读的练习放在前面，可以每天除了背单词，辅以少量词汇题外，余下的时间全部给阅读，时间一个月。
7 U* [- V4 P' }& o, [　　最开始不求快，但求精，一定要读懂，然后用老师已经总结好的各种方法和技巧解题，切忌自己创造新的解题思路或者方法，一定是浪费时间而且得不偿失的。后期就开始要求加快速度，需要加入更多课程上传授的的阅读技巧。
7 U0 n. ?0 Y9 Z( l  A　　这一个月，每天长阅读4-5篇，类比反义各20题，同时不忘背词。 ! M7 q2 h. J( I% y
　　第二个月：类反主打
% v4 N! ~/ Q& q　　结束了一个月的阅读之后，需要大量练习类反，这部分是GRE考试中相对最容易提高的一个部分，因此要好好做题，熟悉、深化已有的规律和思路总结。
: N7 v& j. f5 d% B! M1 l2 L3 f　　初期做题会很绝望，因为发现背了这么长时间，满眼的单词还是非常陌生，此时不必失望气馁，这属于正常现象，是每一个GRE考生的必经阶段。单词在词汇书上的排列是有顺序和规律的，在题目中一下子打乱，并且很多词放在一起，干扰性增强，不认识单词完全可以理解。这时候需要作的，就是拿着词回书上去找中文解释，然后记忆，记忆效果事半功倍。 4 _3 l3 a2 |& A
　　类比反义每日题量根据个人的单词熟悉程度而异。 * ?% Z/ Q" ]( V2 i9 c
　　这一个月结束后，词汇将获得突飞猛进的提高。
% m. a1 o0 S4 {! H  [5 a: C1 L3 Q　　最后一个月：各个击破
3 h9 Q' D; M, i$ \! e: o　　在做完了阅读和词汇题后，还剩一个月的时间，用来专门攻克自己的薄弱环节，加强这一方面的练习和提高，根据个人情况而定。 4 c+ D* q9 l3 ?' a
　　在这个月中，有一个星期的时间留给数学，题目简单，但是需要一定的数学词汇，这些词汇，两个过3-4遍完全没有问题，之后用真题练习，就无大碍。 2 w4 n, Q8 w0 U7 h
　　同时在这一个月中，最后的两个星期要安排数次模考。模考非常必要，能调整好生物钟，使到了考场上整好是考试的最佳兴奋状态。
' g1 K3 w, j2 A8 l1 R0 K　　最后的一个月，还有一个同样重要的事情，就是保持自己身体健康，千万不能功亏一篑。
