written in front
Filling in the summer camp system is the first step in our official preparation for joining the camp, and it is also a very critical step. The insurance researcher who has not filled it may think that it is over if you just fill it out? But after filling in one or two systems, everyone will often sigh—why is it so troublesome/pit!
Every year, there are many insurance researchers who contact the admissions teacher/even affect the camp because of problems in the system . Today, the owner of the island will teach you in detail how to fill in the summer camp system~
1. How to fill in the camp system?
This year, the summer camp system of many colleges and universities has been opened. Those who have tried to fill in the summer camp system should have discovered that although the form is different, the essential content is actually not much different (the difficult part is also difficult to fill in ). The owner of this issue will take the summer camp system of Fudan University as an example, and teach everyone how to fill in the camp system!

1. Carefully read the notice of the summer camp
Directly entering the system to fill in is not the correct way to open it. The most reasonable first step should be to re-read the summer camp notice and clarify the following points:
Precautions
① Time to fill in the summer camp system (mark the key deadline!)
②Registration conditions (restrictions on undergraduate background, grade rankings, etc., to avoid invalid submissions)
③ Registration materials (need to prepare in advance, and then fill in the system!)
④ Registration method (whether paper materials are required, whether they need to be sent in advance, etc.)
⑤ Result notification (system or email notification result, result time?)
⑥ Others (including application direction, major choice, etc.)
It is very important to read the notice in advance. The island owner once heard that the Chinese Academy of Sciences system requires to indicate the name of the group he participated in in the remarks when filling out the report, but Youbaoyaner ignored the small item of the remarks because he did not read the notice carefully. As a result, he was rejected even though he had the ability to enter the camp, and finally contacted the admissions office again...
2. Registration
Many summer camp systems require security researchers to register first, and then follow up with the account to fill in and push the pre-registration system, so it is necessary to bookmark the website and save the account password.

3. Fill in the basic information
Then start to formally fill in the system. It is not difficult to fill in the basic information part, but there are some small details that need attention. The first thing that confuses everyone is the place of birth and place of origin. Sometimes these two are the same and sometimes different .
The other is the mailing address/postal code/fixed phone number, which is generally sufficient to fill in the school address/postal code/fixed phone number of the school (if you are not sure, you can log on to the school’s official website, there is usually one at the bottom of the homepage, and it is more accurate). Landline phones are generally not required to fill in, but mobile phones must be filled in, and fill in your own mobile phone number !
The last is your own e-mail address. It is recommended not to fill in QQ e-mail and other e-mails that are prone to receive a lot of spam, but to use more formal e-mails such as 163 and school e-mail to avoid missing important e-mails.
Example mailing address & zip code
4. Fill in the score information section
The more important part is grades & foreign language filling. The grade point is the first place to pay attention to. Generally, the grade point calculated and displayed on the school system is the main one. However, because some colleges and universities have different full grade points (some are 4 and some are 5), directly fill in your own grade points It may not be comparable (students with a full grade of 4 will suffer even more), so you need to pay attention to whether the system can fill in the form of xx (your own grade point)/xx (full grade point).
In addition, filling in the ranking is also a big pain point. Some systems require filling in the form of xx/xx, some systems require filling in the form of percentage, and some systems do not even strictly require both, so you can try to use a ranking that is more beneficial to you on the basis of filling in honestly (The same is true for different ranking methods such as major categories and small classes). When filling in the English scores, those with TOEFL and IELTS must not miss out.

5. Fill in the awards and academic achievements
In many systems, all the awards will be put together, but there are also many systems (such as Fudan in the example) that will combine academic (such as big challenge, big innovation), competition and honor (such as various scholarships, three good awards) student title, etc.) separately, just pay a little attention. The key point is that when listing the awards, you must fill in the order from high to low, preferably in the order of national level, provincial level, and school level. At the same time, pay attention to whether there is a number limit (for example, only list 4 items). If the form is relatively free when filling in, the island owner recommends indicating his contribution & the gold content of the award (for example, the parentheses indicate the captain, team leader, xx person won, what rank, etc.).
Some rewards will require the "location" (such as the Fudan system), and the island owner suggests that this item should be based on the awarding unit on the certificate/certificate. For example, school-level awards can be filled in the school, and provincial/national awards Fill in the sponsor unit, etc.
In the academic achievements section, if the Fudan system requires you to fill in awards, published papers, academic activities, etc., then you can fill in completed projects/big innovations, papers, and academic conferences you have attended. One of the more confusing items may be "published journal or publishing house". For papers, generally fill in the journal name of the paper (subject to the submission system), and for innovative and entrepreneurial projects such as academic conferences, big challenges/big creations, it is recommended to fill in Organizer unit (or not write). The main purpose of the institution’s requirement to fill in this item is to evaluate the gold content of the thesis/academic activity, so it is enough to provide the unit.

6. Application information part
This is also a very important part of the filling system, which to a large extent determines the future majors, research directions, etc. of the graduate students. The basic content includes choosing a master’s degree or a direct Ph.D., attending a college & major (very important! Subsequent assessments will generally be group interviews and assessments according to different majors, and the major will also determine whether it is a master’s degree or a master’s degree), research direction (generally, follow-up can still be adjusted and changed) wait.

7. Upload photos & materials
Almost all systems will allow security researchers to upload personal ID photos, but each system has different requirements for photos. For example, the requirements of the Fudan system are: recently taken, 150×200 pixels, size within 500K, full-face color photo without hat, and indicate: Be sure to upload as required, otherwise it will be treated as an invalid registration! The island owner suggested that the ID photos taken by students should be kept in electronic versions with white background, blue background and red background, and the original pictures should be kept. When modifying the format, you can use the drawing software that comes with windows to re-adjust the size as needed and save it in jpg format.
The last thing that needs to be uploaded is generally all kinds of materials, which is also the most troublesome item for everyone when filling in the system. Some common materials include stamped transcripts, stamped grade ranking certificates, foreign language achievement certificates, award certificates, and academic research achievements, which can be sorted out and scanned in advance, and integrated into different versions of pdf according to the requirements of different schools. Other personalized materials include the candidate's letter of commitment for integrity assessment, scientific research plan, personal statement, expert recommendation letter, etc., which need to be prepared more specifically by the school. These materials are cumbersome to sort out and are easy to miss. Different schools have different formal requirements, so everyone's patience and carefulness are particularly tested.

8. Submit
The final step, submit! Before submitting, be sure to check all the filled and uploaded information, the more detailed the better. The island owner has seen various cases of filling errors, many of which are also caused by carelessness. Some students left out the notes, and some students used the personal information saved by the browser to automatically fill in the mailbox when filling in the mailbox, and the result was that the name was also covered by the screen name... Don't be lucky and think that these things will not happen to you! Ninety-nine steps have been taken, don't fall at the last step!
2. If you don’t have enough experience, how do you pack it?
Everyone wants to show their best self as much as possible in the system, but the requirements for filling in many parts are very strict, and they are not allowed to play at will. However, scientific research experience often has room for free play. Some big boss Baoyaner holds paper in hand, just fill in a line in what year and month when xxx papers are published in which journal, and they will throw off thousands of troops, but more Baoyaner papers are still being submitted/written/not written , how do we pack ourselves in this case?
Although the papers you are submitting/writing are not strictly speaking results, you should make good use of them. The key point is to show yourself as much as possible on the basis of honesty. For example, you can write "SCI paper "xxxxx" (xxxx journal submission/review/revision) for a paper that is being submitted/written. The core is to let the teacher see your research direction and academic ability. Teachers can understand that publication of papers is a long-term process, so whether it has been published is not so important, as long as you have the experience of doing academic research and the ability to write papers.
In addition, in many freer systems, where scientific research experience is required (not just academic achievements), we can also properly package our own various course designs, large-scale projects, and some small projects done by teachers, etc. Everyone should have had some courses, did some exploratory experiments in the courses, or formed a relatively complete experimental report at the end of the course, then we can say, "under the guidance of teacher xx, we will do some research on xx Researched xx issues in the field and formed xx report results. In the process, I gained a deeper understanding of the xx direction and improved my own xx capabilities." The same is true for Daiso projects and other small projects. Many experiences that we didn't win the award also let us grow. The point is to package and polish ourselves as much as possible without exaggerating ourselves too much.
三、Q&A
Question 1
Does the grade ranking in the summer camp application conditions refer to the academic grade ranking or the comprehensive test grade ranking?
Everyone will be entangled in whether to use the professional ranking or the comprehensive ranking. If the other school clearly states which grade it is, which kind of transcript should be submitted. If there is no specific requirement, generally the ranking issued by the academic affairs of the school shall prevail. If the academic affairs of the college can issue both academic performance rankings and comprehensive test rankings, whichever is the best choice~ but generally requires a ranking that includes the results of all required courses. If there is a discrepancy in the caliber, then communicate with the school to be delivered.
Question 2
Is it necessary to use the official ranking template provided by the applicant institution for the ranking of grades?
Generally speaking, the school will issue a fixed ranking template to ensure fairness for all. However, if the target institution provides a template, it is best to fill in and submit it directly according to the template . If there are special circumstances, you need to contact the other institution by phone or email in advance to explain the situation.
Question 3
What should I do if there is a bug in the reporting system?
It is common for the reporting system to have bugs due to its own reasons and network reasons. Therefore, the owner of the island here suggests that the researcher should not fill in the system directly, but prepare a word/txt to fill in (especially the part that is troublesome to rewrite, such as scientific research experience), and then copy and paste it into the system. In this way, when the web page crashes, it will not cause the mentality to crash at the same time. Some systems provide a temporary storage service, even if a bug is encountered, it is not a big problem; but some systems have to be filled in until submission, so it is necessary to copy the archive. If the bug has not been resolved, you can also contact the admissions office to ask.
Question 4
What should I do if there are too many stamping materials/low stamping efficiency?
Many materials, such as grade certificates and application forms downloaded from the summer camp system, need to be stamped by the schools and departments of the school, and the procedures for stamping the schools and departments are not easy, and often need to go through many approvals. Materials from multiple schools are even more of a headache. In order to effectively improve efficiency, you can gather a lot of materials together to cover multiple copies at one time, and pay attention to keep the originals & scanned copies for yourself, so that you can make copies at any time when necessary. In addition, sometimes due to various details of the materials and the absence of academic teachers, the process of preparing materials is often a bit of a long tug-of-war, so you must prepare early, and don’t wait until the system is about to end to find out Couldn't find the teacher's stamp.
write at the end
A good beginning is half the battle. Everyone will inevitably encounter obstacles on the road of Baoyan, and the pressure from the dream school and peers will also make people feel tired at times, but take every step steadily, and victory will be waiting for you ahead! The island owner sincerely wishes everyone to report smoothly and receive more offers!
