Zingaphi iiklasi ze-AP ekufuneka ndizithathe?
Izifundo zokuBekwa okuPhakamileyo (AP) zizifundo zekholeji zokungena ezinikezelwa njengeeklasi zezikolo eziphakamileyo ezisemgangathweni nezilawulwa yiKholeji yeKholeji. Kukho iimviwo ezingama-38 ezahlukeneyo ze-AP ezibonelelwa kwihlabathi liphela, ukusukela kwimimandla efana nePsychology, Art, Humanities, Science, Math, History, and Languages. Izifundo ze-AP ziyilelwe ukulungiselela abafundi umsebenzi wenqanaba lekholeji ngokunika indlela ekhawulezayo ngakumbi kwiikhosi zemveli ezifundiswa kwisikolo samabanga aphakamileyo.
Iiklasi ze-AP ziyahluka kwiiklasi zemveli ngengqiqo yokuba ziyilelwe ukulungiselela abafundi uvavanyo olusemgangathweni kwintwasahlobo nganye ephuhliswa yiKholeji yeKholeji ngenjongo yokubonisa ukuqonda komfundi kwizifundo zekholeji. Ukubekwa emgangathweni kuqinisekisa ukuba wonke umfundi ophumelele uviwo lwe-AP ngenene uyakwazi ukuqhubeka nomsebenzi wezifundo ezikwinqanaba lekholeji!
Inani elicetyiswayo lezifundo / iimviwo ze-AP liyahluka ngokusekwe kuhlobo lweeyunivesithi onethemba lokufaka isicelo kuzo. Uphononongo luka-2013 olwenziwa ngamagosa okwamkelwa kwiYunivesithi yaseNorth Carolina-Chapel Hill yafumanisa ukuba abafundi kufuneka "baqhubele ubuncinane iikhosi zekholeji ezintlanu" ngexesha lesikolo esiphakamileyo; nangona kunjalo, kubalulekile ukukhumbula ukuba ukususela oko kuqhutywe uphononongo, amazinga okwamkelwa ehlile kakhulu kwaye ukhuphiswano lunamandla kunangaphambili.
Kubafundi abajolise kwi-Ivy League kunye nezikolo eziPhezulu ze-20 e-United States, ekujoliswe kuyo kukuthatha (kwaye uphumelele) iiklasi ze-10-14 ze-AP kulo lonke umsebenzi wakho wesikolo esiphakamileyo - okanye i-3-4 ngonyaka ngamnye. Gcina ukhumbula ukuba lo mthwalo wekhosi awukho kumfundi ngamnye, kwaye ukuba uvakalelwa kukuba awukwazi ukuthatha i-10-14 APs ngelixa ukhathalela impilo yakho yengqondo kunye nokulungelelanisa izinto ezifana nezifundo zangaphandle, cinga ngokulandela u-7-8. Kubaluleke kakhulu ukuba wenze kakuhle kwiiklasi ze-AP ezimbalwa kunokuba ufumane amabakala aphakathi kwabaninzi.
Ukuba abafundi benza kakuhle ekhosini kodwa hayi kuviwo, ungakhathazeki Amagosa okwamkelwa okubhaliweyo abonayo aya kuzuza kumthwalo onzima wekhosi. Nangona kunjalo, amanqaku aqinileyo, okanye iingcebiso, ziluncedo kakhulu - ngakumbi kubafaki-zicelo kwiiyunivesithi ezikhuphisanayo - ke ukuba amanqaku akho ovavanyo omelele, uya kufuna ukuwangenisa!
“Nangona imigaqo-nkqubo yokhetho exhaphakileyo, siye saqaphela [kunyaka ophelileyo] ukuba uninzi lwabafaki-zicelo be-STEM (70%+) basangenise amanqaku ovavanyo kumjikelo we-EA/ED nje. Iimvavanyo ezisemgangathweni zisathathwa njengenqaku ledatha elixabisekileyo kumaGosa oKwamkelwa kunye namanqaku aqinileyo asanceda abafundi ukuba bagqame. Oku kuyinyani ngakumbi kwimimandla apho uninzi lwabafundi lungenisa amanqaku - awufuni ukuba ngumfundi omnye ngaphandle komnye Kwicala le-flip, ukuba oontanga bakho bonke abakwazi ukuvavanya ngenxa yokurhoxiswa, nawe ulungile. ekungangenisi amanqaku, kodwa oku kukwabonelela nethuba lokuba ugqame nangakumbi ngamanqaku aqinileyo (ukuba uyakwazi ukuluthatha ngokukhuselekileyo uvavanyo, kunjalo),” utshilo iSenior Crimson Strategist, uBrice.
Ii-APs zivavanywa ngaphandle ngokupheleleyo ngoviwo olunye olukumgangatho ofanayo ekupheleni konyaka wokufunda. Iimviwo ze-AP zifakwe kwisikali se-1-5.
Ekugqibeleni, isigqibo sokuthatha iikhosi ze-AP kufuneka sithathele ingqalelo iimeko zomntu ngamnye, iinjongo zemfundo, kunye nezinto ozikhethayo. Kubalulekile ukuvavanya iingenelo kunye nezinto ezingeloncedo ukumisela ukuba ngaba izifundo ze-AP ziyahambelana neminqweno yemfundo yomfundi.
Ngoku usenokuba uyazibuza ukuba ungazithatha njani iiklasi ze-AP. Mhlawumbi ufunda kwisikolo esingazinikiyo iiklasi ze-AP, okanye awukwazi ukufikelela kwizifundo onomdla kuzo. I-Crimson Global Academy ilapha ukukunceda. Sisikolo samabanga aphakamileyo samazwe aphesheya esibonelela ngeeklasi ze-AP ukusuka kubutofotofo bekhaya lakho.
Kwi-CGA, abafundi bafunda ngokukwazi kwabo, hayi ubudala, ukuze ukwazi ukuthatha iiklasi ozifunayo nokuba ufunda ntoni esikolweni. Ngaphandle kweeklasi ze-AP, sibonelela nge-GCSE yaMazwe ngaMazwe, iNqanaba kunye nezifundo zeDiploma zase-US zabafundi abaneminyaka eyi-8-18. Kukwakho neentlobo ngeentlobo zemisebenzi yangaphandle, ama-internship kunye namathuba obunkokeli kwi-CGA.
