Southeast University Biomedical Engineering Postgraduate Examination Experience Sticker
1. About school selection and major
(1) The reasons for choosing biomedical engineering of Southeast University and the factors considered
First of all, my undergraduate is to study biological science, and I was admitted to Zhejiang University in biology in my junior year, but I did not enter the re-examination, so I have a clear understanding of my concentration and professional level and love for this major, which is the level of ordinary people who do not like to learn.
Personally, considering the subsequent employment, I only considered the majors related to the courses I studied in 985 colleges and universities at the beginning, plus I didn't want to do too basic research (that is, 07 science student biology category), and finally decided on the general direction of 08 engineering student biology. So I spent about 1 month to make tabular statistics of the preliminary examination subjects, preliminary test score line, minimum admission score, median admission, re-examination subjects, enrollment number, application ratio, and whether there is any transfer information for these majors in all 985 colleges and universities in the past 3 years.
Personally, my biggest concern is actually whether I can go ashore 985 at one time in that year, so from the beginning, I have to consider the most suitable subjects for my initial examination and the way to transfer. At this time, Southeast University stood out because of the simple initial examination subjects, stable enrollment numbers, not particularly high score in 985, and high probability of successful adjustment. After finding out that the biomedical engineering of Eastern University has obtained an A+ rating in the national university discipline evaluation for many times and was selected into the list of first-class discipline construction, I decided to take the biomedical engineering examination of Southeast University.
(2) Analysis of the application for postgraduate examination and the difficulty of postgraduate examination
Form 22018-2022 reporting ratio
Form 12017-2023 Retest Score Changes
Southeast University graduate student admissions network will publish the past years of postgraduate examination data, which is very friendly to the initial understanding of the difficulty of postgraduate examination, in recent years biomedical engineering postgraduate examination can be seen in the following table.
It can be seen that from the perspective of application, the number of students admitted to biomedical masters has been relatively stable in recent years, and there is a faint upward trend. The number of students admitted to Biomedical Masters and Dongmeng Masters fluctuates, Biomedical Masters generally only recruit single digits, although the score is lower, but the opportunities are too few, I generally do not consider such a major. In terms of the difficulty of the postgraduate examination, although the application ratio in 2022 has reached 7.1, the difficulty of the postgraduate entrance examination has increased in theory, but I think the application ratio does not explain anything, because there are inter-professional applicants who apply for this major, there are those who do not work hard in a war (I am typical), there are those who are tortured by the final design, and there are also atmosphere groups that apply for a name, in fact, there are not as many people left to review well as imagined. The real difficulty depends on the median admission score and the minimum score for admission.
From the score line, the score line of the master's degree is relatively stable, but it is still necessary to analyze the specific year, the score line will be affected by the difficulty of the question, the admission policy and other factors, in general, you only need to get above 340 to enter the retest, which is not a very high score for a 985 college. In recent years, it may be possible to separate the lines based on the preliminary subjects 937 and 938, and if the lines are separated, the score line of 937 may be higher than that of 938.
2. Initial test experience.
(1) Some review methods and experiences in each review node of postgraduate English, postgraduate politics, and postgraduate professional courses.
Postgraduate English:
I mainly improve my English skills by memorizing words and doing reading training. To be honest, I spent the least amount of time in English during the whole postgraduate examination process, English is a daily task for me in the postgraduate examination game, I use the red book (paper version, which is very important) to memorize words, and I fix 1 new list every day and review the list I learned yesterday.
The most important thing in postgraduate English is to quickly read the text and grasp the key sentences of the topic positioning. Because the real questions are more valuable, in the early stage I bought a large number of reading questions, a set of 150 articles, do 2-4 articles every day depending on the mood, do it each time, and after the initial reading speed improved, I began to pay attention to the correct rate of answering the questions. It has to be said that the improvement of the accuracy rate is a long process, and there will be fluctuations, and sometimes it is inevitable to be discouraged by how wrong it is. To that end, I also made a line chart to motivate myself by recording the accuracy rate - although there are fluctuations, the accuracy rate is generally rising. This method works well for me.
When it comes to the stage of doing the real questions in the later stage, it still continues the previous habit, the difference is that at this time, I will start to listen to the famous teacher who mistook the question. Although I listened to Tian Jing, there was too much nonsense from her... You still need to find a teacher who suits your teaching style. Listening to the wrong question, the main thing is to listen to why you are wrong, where is the difference between yourself and their thinking, and count your own error-prone question type, do a good job of analysis, so that you can review English more targeted in the later stage (memorizing words is a basic skill, not a review).
In about November, you can polish a few large essay templates yourself, or lazy to buy ready-made directly, you need to memorize all the templates before the exam (so it is not recommended to buy more than 5 templates), and you need to silently make sure that all the words will not be wrong, and finally go directly to the exam room to silently take it.
Graduate School Politics:
I personally hate endorsements, usually after I am tired of mathematics, listen to Xu Tao's class to relax, the dinner video is also replaced with Xu Tao's class, after a chapter is completed, do a corresponding chapter of 1000 questions (in the end, not finished). I have to say that doing political questions is really happy, and there are really many mistakes... Anyway, politics for me is relaxation. In November, I began to write down a hat title, make a timeline of the history outline, turn it out every day to look at it, and frantically endorse it in the last 10 days. Here it is recommended to memorize 3 questions in the last 10 days, and then memorize double questions, and then memorize Xiao Si if you have time. 3 bet refers to the question that has been bet by 3 famous political teachers for graduate school, and double bet is the question that two famous teachers have between, such a memorization method can greatly reduce the amount of memorization, and since more than 2 teachers have bet on it, do you say it is important or not? Of course, brainless rushing Xiao Si is also possible, but I really can't remember more than 60 questions...
Graduate School Mathematics:
Mathematics is the main line in my postgraduate examination process, I took the number one, but I only studied high numbers in college, not probability theory and line algebra, so the number one is very challenging for me. And my approach is to follow the pace of the famous teacher in the postgraduate examination, look at Wu Zhongxiang in high numbers, look at Li Yongle on the line generation, and look at Yu Bingsen in probability theory, and then do all the questions on the supporting tutorial book. In fact, if you can do it all, the amount of brushing questions is almost enough. I only did Wu Zhongxiang's 660 in the basic stage, and Wu Zhongxiang's 330, Li Yongle's line tutoring lecture in the strengthening stage, and Yu Bingsen's probability theory lecture in the strengthening stage. After practice, I found that this effect is not bad, although the amount of brushing questions is not much, but I understand the principle and ideas. In addition, the most important point of mathematics is to brush the real questions one by one, and it is necessary to time them, rather than disassemble the real questions according to the question type.
Mathematics is also a subject that cannot be interrupted, and if you do not do questions for 3 days, your hands will be born, so students who take mathematics must ensure that they do at least a few questions every day.
Postgraduate Courses:
The examination subjects of biomedical engineering of Southeast University are 937 biological signal processing and 938 general biology, and I chose 938 general biology, because the reference book "Introduction to Life Sciences" second edition Zhang Weijie Higher Education Press has less than 300 pages, and there are many pictures, for a postgraduate subject, the review content is very, very little.
For students who have studied biology, they only need to go through the reference book once or twice before July. After July, according to the question type of the textbook and the real question (just look at the question type, don't do the real question at the beginning, the real question is precious!) Organize an outline that is easy to memorize and start memorizing, which needs to be memorized once by September and a second time in September-October. After memorizing the second time, you can try to do real questions other than essay questions, and use real questions to check and fill in the gaps. At this time, you also need to pay attention to collecting some biological hot news or events that may test the essay question, and prepare for the essay question.
The next task I think is the most difficult, I need to carefully analyze the discussion of the real question, so as to summarize a more general answer idea, and accumulate some general arguments. This task can only be eight immortals crossing the sea to show their powers, and there is not a simple way.
Also, after the second memorization, you still need to continue memorizing, and be sure to return to the reference book! Because every exam will test the corners and corners of the details, and finally make sure that you know everything in the textbook (except the plant world). Some experience posts mentioned "Chen Yuezeng General Biology", my advice is not to watch it, there are too many, I basically do not test it, and the cost performance is extremely low.
3. Retest experience
(1) The content of the retest, the difficulty of the retest, the bias of the retest proposition, the characteristics of the re-examination of the faculty, etc.
The retest starting in 2023 has returned to offline. And when I retake the test, it is still online. There are 558 biochemistry reference books in the re-examination subjects, which are "Biochemistry" (Volume I), edited by Wang Jingyan, Zhu Shenggeng and Xu Changfa, Higher Education Press; 559 Application of Microcomputer in Biomedicine, reference books include "Principle and Interface Technology of Microcontroller", fourth edition, edited by Li Chaoqing, Beihang University Press, 2013; "MCU Application System Design—System Configuration and Interface Technology", edited by He Limin, Beihang University Press, 1989; "New MCU Interface Devices and Technology", edited by Lin Ling et al., Xidian University Press, 2005; "MSP430 MCU Principle and Application - MSP430F5xx/6xx Series MCU Introduction, Improvement and Development", edited by Ren Baohong and Xu Kejun, Publishing House of Electronics Industry, 2014.
During the re-examination, you need to pay attention to the official website (https://bme.seu.edu.cn/) of the School of Biological Science and Medical Engineering of Southeast University from time to time, and you can also learn about the tutor's information from the official website after the initial examination, and contact the tutor after the score is issued.
There will be a written test in the offline retest, with a full score of 150 points, and the passing line is 90 points, and those who do not reach the passing line will not be admitted. Therefore, after the initial test is over, you must start reviewing as soon as possible, and don't mess because you feel that you didn't do well. The review can refer to the major of these subjects in the preliminary examination, which may not be as detailed as the initial examination, but you need to understand the basic concepts.
The interview will examine previous academic performance, foreign language listening and speaking communication skills, professional quality and scientific research and innovation ability, as well as comprehensive quality and consistent performance. It is necessary to prepare a 1-minute English self-introduction and a PPT display that fully reflects the content of the prepared materials. It can be said that the most important part of the interview is that the teacher asks questions based on the past experience of the students, especially the projects and projects that the students have done in the past, and the questions will include research methods and innovations. Therefore, students who have not graduated must do their own final design, and students who have graduated can repackage their projects after the initial examination and learn a little software to avoid embarrassment during the interview.
4. Advice and encouragement to juniors.
The entrance examination is not as difficult as everyone says, but it is not simple, as long as you lock your mobile phone while studying, complete daily tasks one step a day steadily, do not move yourself but do not think and do not pay attention to efficiency, everyone will definitely be able to go ashore at one time!
