接着给大家讲讲书写会遇到哪些问题。
一、时间问题
一般的申请人都是在寄好了申请材料了,然后再考虑套磁,但是此时人多,效果不佳。有效的套磁应该提前半年开始,即入学前一年度的六七月份。此时大部分申请人还只是忙于准备考试。要提前套磁就需要提前做好专业背景的准备。要在对于教师的研究背景比较熟悉,效果方佳。
二、思路问题
基本上是以“我希望申请XX时间的XX课程,我对你的研究项目非常感兴趣,附件为我的背景”这种思路来展开。但这种思路有两个主要错误,一是把范围定得太死,往往发给一个教授以后,若是教授不回信的话,就难于再联系第二个教授了。因为前一封信已经明确表明“对某某老师的项目非常感兴趣”,假若再用此方法联系别的老师的话,一旦被发现就前后矛盾了。二是太过功利, 这是因为一上来就告诉对方你是因为希望申请他的课程,而这样的表述方式第一时间就让对方知道你是希望“套”他。在经历过无数的学生骚扰后,这样的信件也只能是被拖进垃圾箱。
三、学术问题
一般来说,做得稍好的套磁都会深入到学术讨论的层次。这里最容易被胜利冲昏头脑,认为对方已经对自己很感兴趣,同时希望表现自己的学术热情,与教授争论某个学术问题。这里要提防的是,除非你的专业见解真的具体说服力,否则很容易变成班门弄斧,我就看过一个申请者由于过度表现而导致套磁产生反效果,结果对方老师抛出一句,“我们不在同一水平上,沟通有难度”。
四、频率问题
好的套磁信基本上是立竿见影的,假若老师不回信,这说明当中肯定出了问题。这时一般申请人往往是追加信件,问对方有无收到。这样的效果也不佳。会给对方增加压力,同时为以后的沟通设置了障碍。
最后来看看如何提高套磁信的回复率?
一、分清楚专业再套磁
想要进行高校的套磁,大家一定要分清楚专业,因为并不是所有专业都是需要套磁的。相对来说,如果是文科生的话,选择套磁并没有太大的意义,因为套磁更加适合理科生。对于理科生来说,获得的奖学金是属于教授研究经费当中的一部分,所以教授更加有资格决定,是否要给你颁发奖学金。
相对来说,文科生的奖学金一般都是由院校决定的,教授所起的作用非常有限。另外,申请需要知道的是,套磁并不是万能的,只是增加大家成功录取以及获得奖学金的几率,而且还需要靠申请者和导师之间的有效沟通才可以。
二、套磁的时间问题
对于申请者来说,申请材料都是寄给学校之后,然后才开始考虑套磁的问题。但是提醒大家,这个时候套磁的人会很多所以反而没有什么太大的效果。如果想要有不错效果的套磁,那么建议大家在半年之前就可以开始准备了,也就是入学前一年的6/7月份左右时间。但是这个时间,很多申请者还要忙于考试的准备。
