美国的高考,实在比中国的高考复杂太多。单以我上面说的打分标准下的学业成绩一项论,就细分成这样一堆:
Academics SAT Scores and GPA: Points SAT I score ACT score SAT II sum Class rank 8 2350 35 7 2310 34 Top 1% 6 2270 33 1550 3% 5 2230 32 1510 4 2180 31 1460 6% 3 2140 29 1410 2 2090 28 1370 1 2050 27 1330 10% 0 2000 25 1290 -1 1950 24 1250 -2 1900 23 1200 20% Add’l –1 for every 50 below 1900 1 below 23 40 below 1200 5% above 20%
Notes: The numbers mean “# and above”. So if you got a 2080 for SAT I, you would get 1 point. Take the highest score from each section (superscoring), unless the college explicitly says that it will follow some other procedure. Since ACT’s replace SAT II’s, multiply the ACT score by 1.75 if you’re counting the ACT only. If the college requires three SAT II’s, take the sum of your three highest and multiply by 2/3. If the university does not requires SAT II’s, multiply your SAT points by 1.75 and add 0 for SAT II’s. Some schools don’t rank their students; if so, estimate your position. Usually nearly all A’s are 4 points or higher, while an even mixture of A/B’s will merit 1-2 points. Competitive high schools are obviously a different situation; if you’re in the top 10% at a really state-of-the-art institution, you should give yourself 6-7 points anyway.
Course difficulty Course level Points Full college courses (by semester) +1.5 for first, +0.75 for each thereafter* Nearly all AP level or IB diploma 5 Mostly (75%) AP 4 Half are AP 3 A few AP courses 2 College preparatory 0 A few remedial classes -2 *Round to whole number; if at a community college, then +0.5 for each semester
Academic Honors General guidelines: Local/school honor = 1-2 pts State level honor = 3-6 pts National level = 7-10+ pts
Examples of awards (as reference) (see also: “other extracurricular involvement”) Academic Honor Point s Comments National Honor society 1 National organization, but schools select members May add 1 if office position. +2 if president. Department awards (each) 1 3pts is the maximum AIME/USNCO; USAMO; MOP; IMO (similar for other Olympiads, maybe discount 2-3 pts) 5; 10; 18; 30 Good score on the AMC 12 (>90) – 3 pts MOP = selective (<30 students) math training camp IMO = International Math Olympiad; gold medal=35pts AP National Scholar 3 Scholar w/ Distinction: 2 pts, w/ honor: 1 pt Governor’s Honors 4 State writing contest (top prize) 6 Runner-up may merit 4 pts Writers’ Digest winner 11 Top 25 or so still get 8 pts Siemens competition Finalist 14 Semifinalist is 9 pts, winner is 19 pts (Intel is similar) Odyssey of the Mind – State/World 4/6-10 Depends on position at competition at Worlds Publishing a book/receiving patent 7-15 Varies on nature of work, use best judgment A book award = 12 pts; bestseller = 15 pts |
