近日，由美国诺科学校上海分校升学指导办发起的第三届”College Fair”在校成功举办。活动现场，来自美国多所高校的招生官与纽约大学斯特恩商学院的在职教授，以讲座的形式，与十年级、十一年级的学生做了分享与交流。

升学讲座

通过这次活动，学生们颇有收获。让我们来听听他们的感想吧：

Joey (Junior-C)

通过上周五学校举办的college fair活动，我对美国的几所大学有了更深刻的了解和认识。各大学的招生官们依次上台，在有限的时间内向我们展示了十分精彩的内容。如各自所代表大学的地理位置、强势专业还有在校人数比例等等，这些数据让我们能更加客观地了解这些大学。

我希望学校以后能多多举办这种活动，这样的形式让我们更加清晰直观地了解到了各个大学的特点，为我们不久后的大学申请提供了有效的参考信息。

此次College Fair的上半程，约有8所大学的招生官分别介绍了各自学校的特点与排名。

通过这些介绍，我们能感受到美国人对于大学选择的不同态度。曾经的我一度困惑于大学到底该如何选择，*括我在内的相当一部分中国朋友，都非常在意大学的排名，而我的美国朋友则更在意的是学校特色与专业排名。

此次college fair活动，招生官们的介绍中关于大学排名的分析也非常多。专业在世界上排名高的大学可能US News排名却在60开外，一些研究型的大学部分专业的排名甚至超过斯坦福等名校。

我觉得，对于有自己目标专业的或对未来的职业方向有明确规划的小伙伴，可以着重关注专业排名，及其他必要的因素，如气候、地理位置、学校规模等。

最后，来自纽约大学商学院的教授给我们上了堂模拟课。他首先概述这门课的基本学习内容，然后将我们分成小组，边讲边关联小组活动，然后是小组成果展示。这堂课和高中课程的**区别是教学参与不再是老师提问点名，而是需要同学积极主动地学习。这样的学习效率更高，这点我认为不论在高中还是大学都是非常重要的。

3月22日，九位大学的招生官来到学校给我们做了招生讲座。

**个开讲的招生官老师来自犹他大学，她向我们着重描述了校园的景致，还给我们播放了一段视频做详细介绍。

亚利桑那州立大学的招生官老师在介绍时，特别强调了他们学校在某些项目上的排名要高于我们的清华、复旦、交大等。这段关于排名的分析，让我的“大学排名一定要靠前”的观念产生了改变。南卡罗来纳大学也一样，学校虽然综排不是那么高，但是他们商学院的国际商务课程已经连续多年保持全美**，还曾登上过时代广场的大屏幕。这也让我意识到，在往后择校时，不能只看学校的总排名，应该要按专业去选择学校，排名不一定是的。

最后，一位经济学的教授，给我们上了一堂不一样的经济课，他用了一种简单易懂的方式讲述了产品与市场的。同学们也即兴做了一段产品介绍。

On Mar. 22, I joined college fair held by our school.

To be honest, it really provided me a great deal of assistance about American universities by front to front talking with the admission officers. Each university had a brief introduction; thus we contacted American universities with zero contact.

After a series of schools’ speeches, a professor from New York University gave us a splendid lecture about foundational stuff of economy. He mentioned four “p” which are the four bases of the market economy.

After talking about the definition of the market economy, the professor invited grade-ten students and junior students to consist two teams to create our own brands and try to sell the products to the utmost as we could which included me.

Initially, we had a draw lots stuff to choose what kind of product we were going to establish a brand based on; me, as the leader of the grade-ten team, chose to set up a recency shoe-brand and in the other hand, the junior team were coerced to choose to make a clothing brand. Afterwards, both teams were asked to design a logo for own brands.

After all of these setup procedures, the leaders of each group were asked to go onto the stage to introduce each brand and draw the logo on the blackboard. For the name of our brand, we decided to call it “Oxford’. After a brief introduction of the brands, each group sent a consumer to identify the beneficiary and depict about the experience of using the products. Our “actor”, also my friend, Chris went onto the podium and narrated about how she impressed her college admissions officer by her charisma by means of wearing our Oxford shoes.

Finally, the professor figured out the best team by publishing an opinion poll, and the junior team won the contest. To be fair, I was really impressed by the actor from junior grade, but indeed our team either had a very brilliant performance.

All in all, this experience really aids me plenty of comprehending about American universities by face to face contacting with the admission officers. Undeniably it was an unforgettable lecture, especially from the professor of NYU, through his speech, I’ve to say that I gradually became interested in economics which also reflects the erudite of the professor and his abundant teaching experience.

College Fair作为一个平台，给学生提供了了解院校一手资讯的机会，希望十一年级与十年级的学生寻找到最适合自己的院校与专业，带着目标与梦想，在未来收获累累硕果。
