1. TOEFL
TOEFL考试每一位申请到美国留学的申请人(无论是申请本科、转学、研究生)都必须提供的考试成绩,TOEFL成绩虽然不作为一个奖学金评定的重要标准,但它却是一个基本的要求。虽然在少数的学校中,TOEFL成绩会被TSE(英语口语测试)成绩替代,但如今TOEFL的地位仍然没有降低。在中国大陆的申请人中,有不少拿TOEFL与TSE两个成绩同时申请奖学金。一般来说TOEFL分数要高于申请学校的最低分数要求,最好能够超过600分。
2. IELTS
雅思考试 (IELTS - International English Language Testing System, 国际英语语言测试系统)是一种较全面地针对听说读写四项能力的、为打算到英联邦国家学习、工作或定居的人们设置的英语水平考试。在英国,雅思考试的认可度超过其他任何一种英语考试,国际学生可以使用雅思成绩申请任何学校、专业及职业机构。它获得了英国院校的100%认可,是众多英国名校衡量申请者语言水平的优先选择,也成为英国技术移民签证申请的语言能力证明。对于申请学校和机构的考生来说,雅思是最佳选择。在澳大利亚,加拿大,香港,雅思考试得到广泛认可。雅思考试也受到诸多亚洲国家的认可,例如:马来西亚、新加坡等,并且是欧洲(例如:荷兰、瑞典、芬兰等国家)众多院校英语授课项目首选的英语语言能力证明。
3. SAT
SAT是其他国家高中生申请进入美国大学本科学习能否被录取、 能否得到奖学金的重要参考。包括数学、美国语文(阅读)、写作。每部分 800 分,时间共 3 小时,写作45 分钟。 满分 2400 分。申请参考:达到515分,阅读达到502分,写作达到494分。美国大学倾向选择650分甚至更高的学生。数学成绩为650-700分甚至更高的学生。名校往往招收总分高于2000分的学生。
4. GRE
GRE考试是研究生的入学考试,它适用于除了法律(需参加LSAT考试)与商业(需参加GMAT考)以外的各种学科与专业的研究生考试。GRE考试分为两种,一种是普通GRE考试(GRE General),也就是大部分中国学生参加的GRE考试。另一种是专项GRE考试(GRE Subject)。参加GRE专项考试的中国考生并非很多,因为大多数美国院校不要求提供专项GRE成绩,只要求普通GRE成绩。但申请研究生专业与申请人本科专业不一致的申请人,是需要提供专项GRE成绩的。例如A君在中国获得某大学物理专业学士学位,希望到美国改读经济硕士学位(Master of Arts in Economics),那么就需要提供GRE经济专项考试成绩,如果希望改读生化硕士学位,就需要提供GRE生化专项成绩。如果本科所学习的专业与申请研究生专业相同,一般不必提供专项成绩。
5. GMAT
GMAT考试是申请美国研究生商业类专业所提供的考试成绩。专业包括,会计学(Accounting),工商行政管理学(Business Administration),市场学(Marketing)、经济信息学(Economic Information)、金融学(Finance)、货币银行学(Monetary Banking)等商业类各专业。需要提出说明的一点是,经济学(Economics)不属于商业类(Business),而属于文科类(Arts)。因此希望申请经济学专业研究生,要提供GRE成绩。
6. LSAT
LSAT是美国法律硕士研究生的入学考试,这项考试1994年2月第一次在中国大陆举行,目前全国只有北京一个考点。LSAT只有阅读、逻辑、分析三部分。
7. TSE
TSE是英语口语测试。如今,许多学校都开始重视这项考试成绩,有些已经把TSE成绩作为申请研究生必须提供的成绩,也有一些把TSE作为助教金资助(Teaching Assistantship)的衡量标准。TSE考试在中国一年也举行四次,分别在1月、5月、8月和10月。
