今天GJXX小編搜羅了上??档码p語實驗學校孫梓揚同學斬獲劍橋大學自然科學專業(yè)offer!希望給擇校的家長們提供參考。
在劍橋大學昨天剛剛公布的錄取榜中,康德雙語高中部孫梓揚Yang同學成功收獲了Girton College物理專業(yè)的offer。
他既是同學們眼中的“學霸”,也是老師們口中的“超優(yōu)秀”學生。在A-Level考試中,他在數(shù)學、高數(shù)、物理、經(jīng)濟四門科目中均獲得了全A*的好成績。
回顧自己的申請心得,Yang表示只要能潛下心來增加知識儲備,并對學術保持熱忱,一定能夠打動面試官。
“興趣讓我不斷探索”
在初中階段,Yang就對數(shù)學和物理產(chǎn)生了興趣。在進入康德雙語高中部后,他也在不斷思考如何能在學術方面有所突破?!拔腋淖兞藢W習方法,除了多做練習題之外,還經(jīng)常進行總結(jié)歸納,大大提高了自己的學習效率?!?/p>
最后決定選擇專攻申請物理專業(yè),因為在Yang看來,物理是所有自然科學里面最基礎的學科,它的思維滲透在所有科學之中。除了在課堂上積累之外,他也經(jīng)常搜集各類有挑戰(zhàn)性的物理問題,進行自主學習。
“對于申請劍橋,其實我沒有很早為自己設定目標,”Yang坦言道,“我是在進入康德雙語高中部學習后,逐漸有了想嘗試申請牛劍的想法。在得到了滿意的A-Level成績后,我開始為申請劍橋作準備?!?/p>
作為王牌專業(yè),劍橋大學的自然科學專業(yè)獨特而嚴苛,分類和選擇制度非常復雜。同時,申請人還要進行筆試與面試。

Yang表示,物理專業(yè)的面試問題并不能用數(shù)字或者定義簡單回復,面試官考察的是學生是否有高水準的邏輯思維,以及對物理學是否有自己深入的了解?!霸诿嬖囍?,我要對所有問題作出快速反應,其實這也是在測試申請人是否能適應今后在劍橋的學習節(jié)奏?!?/p>
“學校為我提供了很多幫助”
“在得知我將參加劍橋的面試后,學校的老師們十分關注,并且?guī)臀衣?lián)系了一位劍橋大學物理專業(yè)的往屆畢業(yè)生,為我提供了模擬面試?!?Yang表示在演練過后,他也增添了更多信心。

“我覺得康德雙語的老師們都十分友善,他們隨時歡迎我們?nèi)枂栴}。除了幫我準備面試,我的申請文書也被老師們仔細地修改過,對我?guī)椭艽??!?/p>
除了老師們給予的幫助之外,Yang也認為他還從同學們身上學到了很多。相較于數(shù)學、物理課而言,經(jīng)濟學課曾是Yang相對不太擅長的科目。但是因為有許多在經(jīng)濟學課表現(xiàn)優(yōu)異的同學,他會向同學們請教探討,在小組學習中互相取長補短。
“熱愛學術,也熱愛生活”
作為高中部十二年級的導師,Mr. Ali在提到Y(jié)ang時,贊美之情溢于言表: “Yang是我執(zhí)教生涯中遇到的最優(yōu)秀的學生之一。我認為他已經(jīng)超過了“好學生”的定義?!?nbsp;
除了在學習方面無可挑外,他還善于與同學們社交,富有幽默感。在課余時間,Mr. Ali也注意到,Yang并不會一直捧著書本,而是積極地參與到體育活動中。“我知道他很擅長打籃球和乒乓球,有時我也會加入和學生一起切磋球技。我認為學生能具備平衡學習與活動的能力十分重要?!?/p>
對于之后在劍橋的生活,Yang希望能盡情享受大學時光,并且對自己喜愛的物理學進行足夠廣泛的研究。他今后仍將遵循自己的熱愛,全身心沉浸在探索興趣的旅途中。
康德雙語高中部的老師們致力于引導學生發(fā)揮自身特長,追求學術卓越的同時也能找到自己所熱愛的方向。再次對Yang表示熱烈的祝賀,期待他在即將到來的劍橋生活中有更豐富的收獲!
The University of Cambridge released the 2022 offer results yesterday. Our G12 student Ziyang Sun successfully received a place for October this year to read Natural Sciences at Girton College. In all of the four A-Level exams, Yang had received straight A*s.
When talking about his application experience, he said that as long as you have a deep understanding of the subject of your interest, the admission officers would be impressed by your passion for academics.
"All About My Interest"
Yang began to have interest in Maths and Physics when he was a middle school student. After getting into the SCBS High School, he kept thinking about how he could have more breakthroughs in academics. “I changed my study methods and improved my efficiency.”
In Yang’s opinion, he believes that Physics is the most fundamental subject among all natural sciences, and this is the main reason that he chose it as his major in college. Besides following the teachers’ instructions at school, Yang often did extra studies independently and explored various physics topics.
“Actually I didn't set Cambridge as my goal before,” Yang said, “after studying at our High School, I gradually had the confidence to consider applying for Oxbridge, and when I got my A-Level grades, I started my application.”
As the best course in Cambridge, the Natural Sciences Department is very strict. The applicants had to pass both a written test and an oral interview.

Yang told us that his interview questions could not be simply answered with numbers or definitions. The interviewer examined whether the students had logical thinking skills, and whether they have an in-depth understanding of physics topics. "During the interview, I had to respond quickly to all the questions, which was actually examining whether the applicant can adapt to the pace of study at Cambridge."
"The Help from SCBS"
"After knowing I would have the interview with Cambridge, all of my teachers were very concerned. They contacted a former graduate of Cambridge University's Physics Major for me, and we had a mock interview together." Yang said that after the drill, he gained more confidence.

"I think the SCBS teachers are very friendly. They always welcome us to ask questions at any time. My personal statement was also carefully revised by my teachers, which was very helpful to me."
Besides the help from the teachers, Yang also believed that he had learned a lot from his classmates. Compared with other subjects, Yang’s was relatively not very good at Economics. Therefore, he often asked for help from his classmates to discuss questions together and learn from each other in group studies.
"The Passion for Life"
As the G12 tutor, Mr. Ali Farhadzadega commented that Yang is “exceptionally awesome”, “he is one of the best students I have ever met in my teaching career.”
Besides his academic excellence, Yang is also good at communication with others and has a sense of humour. Mr. Ali also noticed that after classes, Yang often participates in sports activities such as playing basketball and ping-pong. “I think it’s very important for students to balance their study and life.”
Yang looks forward to his new life at Cambridge and hopes to have further research on physics. He will continue to follow his passion and explore his interests.
At SCBS, teachers always guide our students to show off their talents and encourage them to be the best they can be. Our teachers spare no effort to support the students for their success in all aspects. Congratulations to Yang again, and we wish him a very successful and fulfilling future in Cambridge.
