是的，站在巨人的肩上能让我们看到遥远处最美丽的风景，也能使我们更近距离的靠近成功。如果把美丽的象牙塔比作远处的风景，那么，专业的升学指导就好比巨人的肩膀一样，他能使申请者以超出自身水平的高度来获得名校的认可。

Yes, standing on the shoulders of giants can let us see the most beautiful scenery far away, also can bring us closer to success. If the beautiful ivory tower is compared to the distant landscape, then the professional admission guidance is like the shoulders of giants, he can enable applicants to go beyond their own level of height to gain the recognition of elite schools.

Today"s interview with Peng Yan and Wang Anyi, two senior advisors of the Admission Department, will give you a deeper understanding of the admission guidance work of Shanghai MacDuffieSchool.

Q

2023届毕业生录取成果怎么样？有哪些新变化？

虽然还未到收获录取结果的旺季，我们早申请的学生已经拿到了不少世界名校录取，例如纽约大学、墨尔本大学、香港大学、布里斯托大学等。此外，我们本届申请接连收到两个剑桥大学的面试邀请，其中一个剑桥预录取Offer，可谓是收获满满。我相信后续我们将会收到源源不断的好录取。

随着新冠疫情对留学的影响降低，大学对国际学生的申请条件也在提高，与此同时，学生家长对留学规划也不再拘泥于单一国家或专业。另外不少学生思考申请交叉专业，为未来提升竞争力而奋斗。

Although it is not yet the peak season for the admission results, our early applicants have already been accepted by many world-renowned universities, such as New York University, the University of Melbourne, the University of Hong Kong, the University of Bristol and so on. In addition, we have received two interview invitations from Cambridge University in succession, One of the Cambridge pre-admission offers,which is a great harvest. I believe we will receive a steady stream of good offers in the future.As the COVID-19 pandemic reduces the impact on overseas study, universities are becoming more demanding of international students, while parents are no longer tied to a single country or major. In addition, many students are thinking about applying for interdisciplinary majors to improve their competitiveness in the future.

截止到今日，本届毕业生的Offer数依旧可观，不过在申请院校及录取成果上，相较于去年有很积极的改变。我们的学生有了申请英美顶尖院校的实力，其中不乏拿到剑桥大学面邀和预录取Offer、纽约大学无条件录取及香港大学录取的学生。

Up to now, the Offer numbers of this year"s graduates arestill considerable, but there are positive changes compared with those of last year in terms of applying for universities and admission results. Our students now have the ability to apply to the top universities in the UK and US, with offers from Cambridge University andPre-admission, unconditional offers from New York University and offers from the University of Hong Kong.

Q

你们会如何为学生量身定制“个性化”升学指导方案？

作为学校的升学老师，我们的宗旨就是为每一位学生制定最适合他的留学规划方案。通过与学生和家长的日常沟通，了解孩子的兴趣和优势，家庭的期许和想法，再结合各国院校和各专业的申请条件及就业前景为学生提供合适的院校，制定详细的时间规划表，协助学生一步步努力，走向自己的梦校。

As the admission teacher of our school, our aim is to make the most suitable overseas study plan for each student. Through daily communication with students and parents, to understand children"s interests and advantages, family expectations and ideas, and then combined with the application conditions and employment prospects of colleges and universities in various countries and majors to provide students with appropriate colleges and universities, we have made a detailed schedule, to help students step by step efforts to their dream school.

一般还是从孩子的性格、爱好和对不同学科的热情程度，对留学目的地国家的了解等方面综合起来判断孩子适合什么样的教育系统，适合什么样的教育环境，再去根据实际情况给他们做出升学规划。当孩子对未来比较迷茫的时候，我们也会在指导课上给同学进行不同国家的课程、目标国家的大学以及文化、不同专业的录取要求等方面的介绍，让同学们对自己未来要做的事更有概念一些。

Generally, we judge what kind of education system and environment children are suitable for based on their personality, hobbies, enthusiasm for different subjects, and understanding of the destination country, etc., and then make the admission plan for them according to the actual situation. When the children are confused about the future, we will introduce the courses of different countries, the universities of the target countries, the culture and the admission requirements of different majors to the students in the guidance class, so that the students can have a better idea of what they will do in the future.

Q

结合近几年大学录取政策变化，对学生们的申请有哪些建议？

第一早做规划，第二以不变应万变。申请条件再如何变化，归根结底还是三个方面：学术成绩，语言标化，和软背景提升。早起的鸟儿能吃好！所以学习要好，语言要提早达到标准，更要尽早跟升学老师咨询和制定好规划方案，按部就班，一个萝卜一个坑。不管时局如何变化，都能从容应对。

The first thing is to make a plan. The second thing is to adapt to changes. In the final analysis, the application requirements will be changed in three aspects: academic performance, language standardization, and soft background improvement. The early bird gets the best! So learn well, language to reach the standard early, but also as early as possible to consult with the college teacher and make a good plan, step by step, a turnip a pit. No matter how the situation changes, you can take it in stride.

近几年的英美澳加及香港等不同国家以及地区的申请要求甚至录取要求都较往年变得更加有挑战性，竞争力也更加激烈。由于前几年新冠的影响，大多数大陆地区原本想要申请英美的学生，也把目光投向了香港、澳门、新加坡等国家和地区。不过不管申请什么国家或地区的大学，成绩和语言都是立身的根本，在保持良好的成绩外，积极参加各项自己感兴趣的活动和竞赛，会为他们在未来挑选大学时争取更多的自由度。

In recent years, the application requirements and even admission requirements of different countries and regions such as the UK, the US, Australia, Canada and Hong Kong have become more challenging and competitive than those in previous years. Due to the impact of COVID-19 in the past few years, most students from the mainland who originally wanted to apply to the UK and the US have turned their eyes to Hong Kong, Macao, Singapore and other countries and regions. However, no matter which country or region they apply for the university, grades and language are the foundation of standing. Besides maintaining good grades, they will actively participate in various activities and competitions that they are interested in, which will give them more freedom in choosing universities in the future.

Q

作为升学中很重要的部分（活动、竞赛），学校以什么样的方式展开？

美达菲作为国际学校，一直秉承的教育传统就是“集体”“正直”“尊重”“创造力”“领导力”“卓越”六大核心价值观。所以各种丰富多彩的活动从不缺席。例如每年新生欢迎会的各种节目表演，各年级集思广益百花齐放的“办集市搞义卖”，鼓励学生自发创立兴趣俱乐部和学习小组，都是我校在延续这一教育传统下的不断发展和创新。目的为了培养学生的集体荣誉感、归属感、领导力。我们更希望我们的学生就算毕业后出国留学，也能在国外自信独立，自强不息。

As an international school, MacDuffiehas been adhering to the six core values of "community", "integrity", "respect", "creativity", "leadership" and "excellence". So a variety of colorful activities are never absent. For example, various performances at the annual freshmen welcome party, "holding a bazaar" where all grades gather their wisdom, and encouraging students to spontaneously set up interest clubs and study groups are the continuous development and innovation of our school under the continuation of this educational tradition. Objective To cultivate students" collective sense of honor, belonging and leadership. We want our students to be confident, independent and self-reliant even after they study abroad.

我们学校每学年都会安排20+的社团活动，以及各项赛事活动。其中社团都是学生们自主开设，自行寻找社团老师进行活动的。竞赛等其他活动学校也会提前通知给学生和家长，并安排额外的竞赛辅导帮助同学们在竞赛中取得好成绩。

Our school arranges more than 20 club activities and competitions every school year. Among them, students set up clubs independently and find club teachers for activities by themselves. Students and parents will also be notified in advance of other events such as competitions, and extra coaching will be arranged to help students do well in competitions.

Q

如何进行学生的文书指导？

我一直跟学生强调一件事，那就是文书素材就像你的简历，是你前半生的缩影。如何表现自己的优势、个性，对专业的理解，对未来的规划，一笔一划马虎不得，它从来不是一蹴而就的事。相对的，从我给学生规划一开始，我就会强调学生自己记录每一次活动的参与，每一次竞赛的拼搏，每一次新项目和新知识的领悟。对生活的点滴记录和感恩成就自己，而如何通过文书去展现，就是我跟学生多次思想沟通的火花碰撞，凝聚出来的最佳内容。

One thing I always emphasize to students is that the essay materials are like your resume. They are a microcosm of the first half of your life. How to show their strengths, personality, professional understanding, future planning, a stroke of the pen must not be careless, it is never an overnight thing. In contrast, from the very beginning of my planning for students, I will emphasize that students record their participation in every activity, every competition, every new project and understanding of new knowledge. I have achieved myself by recording every bit of life and being grateful, and how to show it through writing is the best content condensed by the sparks of my communication with students for many times.

不管哪个国家的文书，目标都是围绕自己展开的。平时在升学指导课上，我们会让同学们总结一下不同时期自己做过哪些事，也会让同学们围绕自己的个人特质进行一些论述和描写。目的是为了让同学们更了解自己的长处、兴趣以及让他们对自己的未来进行一些设想。除此之外，针对于高年级临近申请的同学，我们会对学生进行深度的了解，让他们自己回忆高中的生活做过哪些事，有些时候他们会恍然大悟，原来自己做了这么多事都跟申请息息相关。

No matter which country"s document, the target is all about oneself. Usually in the college guidance class, we will ask students to summarize what they have done in different periods, and also ask students to discuss and describe their personal characteristics. The purpose is to let students know more about their strengths, interests and let them have some ideas about their future. In addition, for seniors who are about to apply, we will have a deep understanding of the students and ask them to recall what they have done in high school. Sometimes they will suddenly realize that all the things they have done are closely related to the application.

Q

有没有印象特别深刻的学生或比较难忘的经历？

在这段繁忙的申请季里，我与之接触的每一位学生，他们的故事和背景都特别鲜活，可谓是每一个都有他们大放光彩的点。例如在提交申请前，有学生跟我沟通文书书写，不断精益求精，且想法独特又自主；例如有学生对专业迷茫，但跟我反复沟通了兴趣爱好，已经我对他学科能力的了解后，我给提出的专业建议，他欣然接受的那一时刻的喜悦；例如我们给学生推敲面试准备，反复练习和给与中肯建议。历历在目的细节都是难忘的经历。

During this busy application season, the stories and backgrounds of every student I interact with are very vivid. Each student has his or her own shining point. For example, before submitting the application, some students communicated with me about writing documents and kept improving them with unique and independent ideas. For example, there was a student who was confused about his major, but he communicated with me repeatedly about his interests and hobbies. After I got to know his academic ability, he was happy at that moment when I gave him professional advice. For example, we prepare students for interviews, practice and give them pertinent advice. Vivid details are memorable experiences.

当同学们找到自己的目标时，往往能激发出无限的动力和激情，这时候的他们是无敌的，没有困难能够打倒他们。

When students find their own goals, often can inspire unlimited motivation and passion, at this time they are invincible, no difficulty can beat them.

Q

作为学校资深的升学指导老师、见证者，您个人最大的感受是什么？

梦想有多大，付出就要有多少。

How big the dream is, how much you have to pay.

主动性是申请的利器。主动去做院校调查，了解申请规则，知道录取要求等等是申请过程中不可或缺的。这不仅仅能培养同学的能力，也可以提升同学们对自己的责任感。在申请中主动性较高的学生，往往都能取得不错的申请成果。

Initiative is a powerful tool in application. Taking the initiative to do college research, understand the rules, requirements, etc., is essential to the application process. This can not only cultivate students" ability, but also enhance their sense of responsibility for themselves. Students with high initiative in application often get good application results.

Q

对于即将选择留学这条路的孩子，你有哪些寄语？

不要一直想着走捷径，那会让你错过太多美好的风景。脚踏实地，对自己真诚，才能经得起风浪，做自己的“孤勇者”。

Don"t try to take shortcuts all the time. You"ll miss too many wonderful sights. Down-to-earth, sincere to themselves, can withstand the wind and waves, do their own "lone brave".

选择走留学这条道路的大家都是勇敢的，因为这意味着你们之后的学习生活不会仅仅去在意成绩单上的分数，也会提前开始思考自己的兴趣、爱好、天赋、未来等等围绕自身的问题，这也许会带来一些烦恼，但是无疑也会帮助你们全方面的成长，成为更好的自己。我希望你们每天都能做最好的自己。

Those who choose to study abroad are brave, because it means that you will not only care about the score on the report card, but also start to think about your interests, hobbies, talents, future and other issues around yourself in the future. This may bring some troubles, but it will undoubtedly help you grow in all aspects and become a better yourself. I want you to be the best you can be every day.MACDUFFIE关于上海美达菲升学指导部
