Preparation for 2024: If you want to get an A in the SZSE interview?

Regarding the preparation of the Shenzhen International Exchange Examination, we are serious. I have already shared with you the preparation strategies for the two major subjects of English and Mathematics for the preparation of the Shenzhen International Exchange Examination, and today I will tell you how to prepare for the interview of the Shenzhen International Exchange Examination.

First of all, before sharing interview preparation strategies, many candidates may not have carefully studied the latest syllabus changes for the 2024 interview of SZCE, so let's review it first:

Changes to the 2024 SZSE interview syllabus

The biggest change in the interview process in 2024 is that the total duration has been extended by 2 minutes, and the interview time is about 8-10 minutes per person.

The reason for the extension of the interview time of the 2024 SZCE

According to our experience in preparing for the exam for more than 10 years, the main reasons for the extension of the interview time are as follows:

1. According to the interview in previous years, the examiner will carry out the following process during the interview:

1) Examiner's self-introduction + interview introduction + warm-up (1 minute)

2）personal statement 提问+互动:could you please tell me a little bit about yourself（2分钟）

3) Other relevant questions + interaction + the examiner's response and evaluation of the candidate's answers:

①what is your favorite basketball player？(2分钟)

②can you tell me what your favorite subject in school is? (2分钟)

③Do you have any questions for me? (2分钟)

4) The examiner's summary and evaluation of the whole interview (30s)

Therefore, after the whole interview, the admitted children will account for 8-9 minutes in the above process

2. In addition, some excellent children have stronger performance and expression skills, so the interview time is likely to be extended to 10-11 minutes.

2024 SZSE Interview Preparation Strategy

For students who have been shortlisted for SZCE, the interview is a good opportunity to show themselves.

According to previous admissions, the children who passed the interview have the following characteristics in the process:

(1) Be able to understand and respond to questions accurately and fluently

(2) In the process of answering, you can consciously extend and give more specific details

(3) During the interview, you will even interact with the examiner

So, how to speak amazingly during the interview and stand out among many applicants? Today, the teacher will take you to understand the three types of questions in the entrance interview of SZSE for your reference.

Question Type 1: Introduce yourself

Boastful Question Type:

1. Choose five words to describe yourself.

2.What characteristic makes you stand out among all the otherapplicants?

3.What would you contribute to our SCIE society?

4.What is unique or special about yourself?

Bend School Question Type:

1. Why would you choose SCIE among all the international schools inChina?

2. What attracts you the most about SCIE?

3.In what ways do you know about our school?

4. What kind of school life would you like to experience at SCIE?

Comments: Praise yourself to a degree, although most of the time to talk about your advantages, but you can mention a little bit of harmless shortcomings to ensure authenticity. You can think of some words in advance that can really describe you and explain them clearly

To exaggerate the diplomatic relations, you can do some research in advance, watch the school's official documentary, and the comments of seniors, and have a spectrum in your heart. It is best to name a few well-known ECA after school hours.

Question Type 2: Open-ended questions

Imagination Themes:

1. What would you do if you had a large sum of money?

2. Which superpower would you want to have the most?

3. What would you do if you have one year of free time?

4.Assume that you have access to a time machine,Which historicalperiod would you want to travel back to the most?

Perspectives:

1.To what extent should society help the poor?

2. Do you agree with the following statement: Environmental issuestoday are mainly caused by a lack of government regulation?

3. What are some pros and cons of studying online / distance learning?

Comments: Because there are no accurate answers and it is difficult to prepare, the open-ended questions have the highest difficulty coefficient, which mainly tests the candidates' on-the-spot adaptability and thinking ability. The logic of answering opinion questions should be clear, and the speech should be reasonable. If you can't answer for a while, you can ask the examiner to repeat it (delay for a while), organize your thoughts, and then answer.

Admission probability of SZSE interview: one-third, and the final admission will be determined after comprehensive investigation.

Interview: Acting on the spot (speaking/logical thinking/improvisation), appearance.

Personal Statement: Briefly describe your past resume and the scores of each grade, please do not fake.

Scope of Interview:

1. Self-introduction (opening remarks, for the questions on the personal statement form)

2. Boasting/Boasting about the school (boasting should be moderate, boasting about the school can be appropriately exaggerated)

3. Open-ended questions (difficult to prepare, calm and calm)

4. "Any questions?" (Last resort to decide whether or not to admit or not)

I understand what the teacher said

In the interview of SZCE, the basic questions will not be too difficult, but the content of the candidates' answers will affect the direction, difficulty and depth of the subsequent questions. Therefore, in the process of preparing for the exam, in addition to preparing the basic questions in advance, it is also necessary to predict the questions that the examiner may extend in advance according to the content of the basic questions, and this part needs to be personalized according to the actual situation of the student.

(1) Short-term preparation for the interview exam, candidates can seize the time to simulate the interview scene with classmates/family members, and form a thinking habit of answering through several days of intensive training, so as to improve the fluency of the entire interview.

(2) Think about your own strengths and distinguish them from other candidates, such as excellent academic background, rich extracurricular activities/social practice experience, outstanding strengths, etc. In this way, different characteristics are formed, which arouses the interviewer's interest in you and deepens the impression.

(3) Don't be too nervous about facing the examiner, and don't be ashamed if the student's pronunciation is not very pure and has an accent. Rather than accent, the interviewer values your communication guts/ability and logic more than your accent.

(4) It is worth mentioning that the interviewer's first impression of you will affect the judgment of your grades, so special attention should be paid to the mental outlook and etiquette during the interview. It is also a potential bonus to show confidence and humility from the beginning of the interview, not to be afraid of difficulties and not to back down, and to make a good impression on the examiner.

The interview test time is about 10 minutes, and the English language score and comprehensive quality score are examined, and the whole English exchange is conducted. If you want to impress an interview examiner, you must first have a clear understanding of the interview format and frequently asked questions.
