British middle schools require students to take exams before entering school. Most students take the entrance examination organized by the British Private School Examinations Board (ISEB). Of course, some schools have their own questions. The entrance examination of 1 1+ has two examination times, one at 1 1 and the other at 1. Most schools and students choose 1 month as the examination time. The content of the exam mainly includes mathematics, English and science (there will also be word logic questions). The written test time of each subject is generally around 1 hour.
Interpretation of written test: Take the 9-year entrance examination (13- 14 years old) as an example. Usually, the written test subjects in schools are English, mathematics and science (including physics, chemistry and biology) or linguistic/nonverbal reasoning (that is, linguistic/nonverbal logic problems) instead of science. The written test time of each subject is generally about one hour. English question: The test paper consists of several short essays, which tests students' reading, understanding and answering abilities to related questions. Candidates need to be able to compare the contents and writing styles of different articles and give detailed answers. Mathematical problems: including algebra and geometry problems. For China students, mathematics is generally not a problem. Language logic question: Ask students to answer multiple-choice questions after reading the passage.
This paper examines the intelligence, understanding and logic of candidates compared with other peers. Interpretation of interview: When interviewing candidates from non-English-speaking countries, British schools mainly pay attention to two points: First, how good the children's English is and whether they can learn English courses normally; Second, is this child clever? Domestic children 13 (the first year of middle school curriculum) apply for courses that need to be studied in the first year of British middle schools, which are similar to basic courses. After the completion, you don't need to take the exam to take the GCSE directly, which can be used as a transitional link for international students.
(Grade 9 of British Middle School) 65,438+04-65,438+05 (GCSE) Domestic children are equivalent to the graduation certificate of domestic junior high school graduation examination, but it is slightly more difficult than domestic junior high schools, similar to the teaching level of grade 3 and grade 1. Usually take 8- 12 courses, which are divided into compulsory courses and elective courses. (British middle school10-1/grade) 16- 17 (A_level) is recognized by English teaching universities all over the world. Students choose 3-4 courses (* * * more than 60 courses) according to their own background and development direction. (British Middle School 12- 13 Grade)
For example, the UKiset exam.
UKiset is jointly sponsored by the top schools in Britain, and is divided into three parts: English, mathematics and logical thinking.
English
Including grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, listening and creative writing. Candidates also need to write a composition according to the specified topic on the day of the exam. The composition is handwritten. The minimum number of words in a composition varies with age, and candidates must write the required minimum number of words.
9- 1 1 year: at least 100- 150 words.
12- 15 years old: at least 200-250 words.
16- 18 years old: at least 300-350 words.
The writing answer sheet will be sent to the school together with Ukiset's grade report.
2. Mathematics
Use mathematical concepts and skills to solve practical problems.
3. Logical thinking
Including nonverbal reasoning (solving problems based on graphics), spatial ability (testing the rotation and processing ability of graphics in two-dimensional and three-dimensional space) and linguistic reasoning (solving problems based on words).
One: Reading
Reading comprehension test usually involves an article or a poem, which requires students to understand the meaning between the lines in order to find out the potential facts and meanings (that is, critical reading). Through learning, most students will "infer" the meaning of a paragraph, but they also need to sort out their own answers. The most effective method is P-E-E (Point-Evidence-Interpretation).
Avoid simple mistakes. Read the article and the topic at least twice to make sure you understand the meaning of the topic.
Control the time and try to answer every question.
Two: writing
Plot: Don't be too complicated. Our suggestion is: the plot is average, and the writing is extraordinary!
Language: Don't be dull and ignorant. What's your usual metaphor? Use them.
Vocabulary: Please enlarge your vocabulary as much as possible and apply the synonyms you have learned.
Three: Reasoning
These evaluations are conducted through examination papers or computers.
One year before the exam, I used 10 minutes every day, five days a week, to do a small amount of reasoning exercises.
Most reasoning questions need to be answered in a unique way. When students master these methods, they only need to control the time of doing problems through constant practice. Avoid over-preparation, this is just an aptitude test to evaluate core intelligence.
VICI induction focuses on the one-stop service for British teenagers to study abroad, and provides professional and systematic education services for China families who want to enter primary and secondary schools in the UK. It has been provided by 28 public schools including Eton College and top quality middle schools in the UK.
