13/11 Bejing First Battle - 710 (Q 50, V 34) & Some thoughts about the exam

ellemagic

Background: two years overseas master-study. 北航 undergraduate.
About the exam room, it is much more warmer than I thought. So I took two breaks to refresh my minds and have some food supplements of course.
I am a little sorry that I did not score 51 in Q. I left 15 mins in the Q section, which probably infers that I did not carefully examine every question. I think I can do better the next time.
Overall, the grade reflects my real situation, accordng to four times prep: 680, 700, 740, 710

About the contents of the exam:
RC: two longs and two shorts. I dont think I did good in this part. Topics including arguing for an importance factors that reduced the unemployment of women in 1970s, investigation of the surface materials of a statue to determine its age. Other two are short and easy.
SC and CR, seemed easy.
Q:is normal

About the JJ, it was my first time to get in this forum two days ago. I didn't see two much JJ, except some of the Q questions and the English paragraphes in the RC JJ.
Personally, I dont think JJ can add anything for my preparation. Reasons: Q is easy, examing points are similar, as long as your maths in high school is above average, Q should not be a big challenge. Verbal is difficult. But look at JJ may sometimes mislead you bacause no body has certainly remembered sth. or the answers. But I think JJ can help you familarise your fellows and their situations and entertain yourself when you see others' posts.

AWA:
Argument: that topic related to recreational facilities, New swimming pool, and ~Heart Fitness Center.
Issue: the best teachers are those expect  their students to chanllenge the popular ideas rather than accept them.
I think I may score betwee 4.5 and 5.
Thoughts on AWA: I have written many essays before, so I dont think that's challenging. But I still write 10 or so for each type to familirize myself with the procedures to answer those questions. I reckon fellows should write what they really know and what they really think about the argument critically. Watch BBC, CNN english websites more often, you will know the news and be full of thoughts to judge a thing.

All in all, it is just an exam reflecting the some skills of a candidate. Do not be upset at any time, because you are always good in some way.

I will start applications later on. Wish all you fellows very good luck.

我刚开始还以为有洋鬼子混进来了呢，哎，最好还是讲中文撒~

写英文冒犯了对不起，只是提供一些想法。二楼的素质很不好。这样的回复让我肯吃惊。

还以为你不能打中文...
如果每句话都是想了中文再翻过来的话 建议还是直接用中文 如此生硬看着很累

二楼说的很对，现在这么多间谍，阿三棒子，大家钩子都不用字母表示，而这里居然还全篇英语
不是找抽是干嘛，同意楼上的。我简单看了一下写的英语，明显是先想好中文然后逐字逐句翻的，有这个必要吗？
感谢你的钩子！
