#سوئد
سوئد در مقطع دکتری ماهی بیست هزار کرون پرداخت میکند که هفت هزار تا برای مخارج زندگی کافی است. در کل، کشور گرونی است. تعداد پوزیشن هایی که دانشگاههای سوئدی برای مقطع دکتری اعلام میکنند خیلی کم است و گاهی فقط سوئدی ها را میپذیرند.
ولی شرایط اقامتی به سختی خیلی از کشورهای دیگر اروپایی نیست. پس از چهار سال دوره دکتری گرفتن اقامت ممکن میشود. گر چه طبق آخرین اخبار رویه اقامتی رو به سخت شدن میرود.
مشکل اصلی تعداد بسیار کم پوزیشن هاست. اقدام برای پوزیشن های دو دانشگاه "لوند" و "اوپسالا" رایگان است. در نتیجه با تلاش برای آنها و عدم موفقیت تقریبن چیزی از دست نمیدهیم. در هر دو دانشگاه قسمتی است که تمامی پوزیشن های خالی رو نوشتن. خبرنامه هم برای پوزیشن ها دارند که میتونید ایمیلتون رو وارد کنید و مطلع بشید.
در رابطه با سرمای سوئد: تا منفی بیست درجه هم میرسد. منتها لباس های مخصوص هم دارند که سرما رو تحمل پذیر میکنه. بعضی دانشگاه ها پس از پذیرش ایمیل میزنند که لباس گرم خود را در سرزمین مادری بگذارید چرا اینجا جواب نمیدهد.
نکته ی دیگه اینکه تعداد ایرانی ها در این کشور زیاد است

#IELTS Speakin

According to the assessment criteria, an IELTS Band 7 candidate:

Speaks at length without noticeable effort or loss of coherence
In IELTS Speaking, your score goes up when you say more, even if that results in more errors. That’s because IELTS is a test of what you CAN do, not what you can’t. So say as much as you can in response to the question, until you run out of ideas or start repeating yourself. It’s not a bad thing if the examiner has to interrupt you.

آزمون GRE# چیست؟
این آزمون در دو فرمت کامپیوتری و کاغذی برگزار میشود.از سال 2012 فرمت آزمون تغییرات اساسی کرد و دیگر دانستن لغت به تنهایی کمکی به شما نخواهد کرد.این آزمون از 3 بخش اساسی تشکیل شده است.

📌Analytical Writing
در این قسمت دو نوشته با ساختار کاملا متفاوت باید ارائه شود که برای هر یک فقط 30 دقیقه فرصت دارید. زیاد این جمله را میشنوید که ایرانی ها در این بخش ضعیف هستند و زمان زیادی به آن اختصاص ندهید، اما حقیقت امر آن است که اگر می خواهید در رشته هایی ماتند تاریخ و در دانشگاه های تاپ آمریکا تحصیل نمایید باید حداقل 4 بیاورید. معمولا کسی که اندکی مطالعه داشته و خواسته موضوع را به خوبی درک کند 3 را خواهد گرفت.
📌Verbal Reasoning
دارای دو بخش است که هر یک شامل 20 سوال بوده و هر کدام 30 دقیقه زمان خواهند داشت.
📌Quantitative Reasoning
این بخش ریاضی بوده و آنطور که عوام تصور میکندد سوالات در حد دبیرستان نمی باشند.پس بیجهت با این تعابیر این بخش را ساده نیانگارید و برای آن زمان کافی اختصاص دهید.سوالات این بخش عمدتا نکته دار و بر خلاف ظاهر ساده بسیار زمانبر می توانند باشند.هرگز اگر در حل مساله مستاصلید اما فکر میکنید که مساله بسیار ساده است در تله زمانی ETS گیر نکنید و به راحتی از خیر آن سوال بگذرید. این بخش دارای دو بخش 20 سوالیست که هر یک 35 دقیقه زمان دارند.
دقت داشته باشید دو بخش آخر که هر یک دو بخش دارند در حقیقت فقط یک بخش آن دارای نمره بوده و یک بخش را شما پاسخ می دهید تا ETS بتواند برای آزمون های آینده از تجربه پاسخگویی شما استفاده نماید.هرگز به این صحبت های اطرافیان که ادعا میکنند می دانند کدام 20 سوال آزمایشیست توجه نکنید و هر دو قسمت را با این دید که اصلی هستند با دقت و توجه کامل پاسخ دهید.
آزمون کامپیوتری به شما این امکان را می دهد که در بین سوالات مختلف رفت و آمد داشته باشید و پاسخ های خود را ویرایش کنید یا تغییر دهید.

What's the Role of GPA in Graduate School Admissions?
Your GPA or grade point average is important to admissions committees, not because it signifies your intelligence, but instead because it is a long-term indicator how well you perform your job as student. Grades reflect your motivation and your ability to do consistently good or bad work. Generally, most master's programs require minimum GPAs of 3.0 or 3.3, and most doctoral programs require minimum GPAs of 3.3 or 3.5.
Usually this minimum is necessary, but not sufficient, for admission. That is, your GPA can keep the door from shutting in your face but many other factors come to play in getting accepted to graduate school.

Course Quality Can Trump Grade:
Not all grades are the same, though. Admissions committees study the courses taken: a B in Advanced Statistics is worth more than an A in Introduction to Pottery.
In other words, they consider the context of the GPA: Where was it obtained and of what courses is it comprised? In many cases, it's better to have a lower GPA composed of solid challenging courses than a high GPA based on easy courses like "Basket Weaving for Beginners" and the like. Admissions committees study your trannoscript and examine your overall GPA as well as the GPA for the courses relevant to the programs to which you're applying (e.g., GPA in science and math courses for applicants to medical school and graduate programs in the sciences). Ensure that you're taking the right courses for the graduate program to which you plan to apply.

Why Turn to Standardized Exams?
Admissions committees also understand that applicants' grade point averages often can't be meaningfully compared.
Grades can differ among universities: an A at one university may be a B+ at another. Also grades differ among professors in the same university. Because grade point averages are not standardized, it's hard to compare applicants' GPAs. Therefore admissions committees turn to standardized exams, like the GRE, MCAT, LSAT, and GMAT, to make comparisons among applicants from different universities. Therefore if you have a low GPA, it is essential that you try your best on these tests.

What If I Have a Low GPA?
If it is early in your academic career, for example you are in your sophomore year or beginning your junior year, you have time to boost your GPA. Remember that the more credits you have taken, the harder it is to raise your GPA, so try to catch a spiraling GPA before it does much damage. What it it’s too late?

Try your best (obviously).
Take high quality courses. Sure it's easy to raise your GPA with introductory courses and so-called "easy A's" but admissions committees see through those tactics. A lower GPA composed of high quality courses will do you more good than a high GPA composed of "easy" courses.
Take more classes. Don' t just take the minimum number of courses needed to graduate. Instead take more courses so that you have more opportunities to raise your GPA.
Take summer courses. Summer classes are intense but they permit you to focus entirely on one (or two) classes, which means that you're likely to do well.
Consider delaying graduation. Spend an extra semester or more in school to take courses to raise your GPA.
After graduation, take a few graduate courses or challenging undergraduate courses to show your aptitude. Point to your performance in these classes as an indicator of your capacity for graduate work.

Should You Discuss a Low GPA in Your Graduate Admissions Essay (SOP)?
The purpose of the graduate Admissions Essay (SOP) is to permit admissions committees a glimpse of the applicant apart from his or her grade point average and standardized test scores. The Admissions Essay (SOP) is your chance to speak directly with the committee, explain why you are a good candidate for graduate study, and why you are a good match to their graduate program.

Beware of Sharing
However, the opportunity to write an essay for the admissions committee is not an invitation to share all of the intimate details of your life.
Committees may view providing too many private details as an indicator of immaturity, naivete, and/or poor professional judgment - all of which can send your graduate application to the slush pile.

When to Talk about Your GPA
In most cases your best bet is to focus on your strengths and not discuss your grade point average.
Avoid drawing attention to the negative aspects of your application unless you can balance them with positive factors. Discuss your GPA only if you intend to explain specific circumstances, courses, or semesters. If you choose to discuss weaknesses such as a low GPA, consider how the circumstances surrounding your low GPA will be interpreted by the admissions committee. For example, explaining poor grades for one semester by briefly mentioning a death in the family or serious illness is appropriate; however, an attempt to explain four years of poor grades is not likely to be successful.
Keep all excuses and explanations to a minimum -- a sentence or two. Avoid drama and keep it simple. Some applicants explain that they don't test well and therefore their GPA is not indicative of their ability.
This is not likely to work as most graduate programs entail many tests and the ability to perform well under such circumstances is valued.

Seek Guidance
Before you discuss your GPA within your graduate Admissions Essay (SOP) seek the advice of a professor or two. Do they think it's a good idea? What do they think of your explanation?
Take their advice seriously - even if it is not what you hoped to hear.
Above all, remember that this is your chance to present your strengths and really shine, so take advantage of the opportunity to discuss your accomplishments, describe valuable experiences, and emphasize the positive.

What Do Grad Schools Look for in Students?
What do graduate admissions committees look for in potential grad students? Understanding what graduate schools look for in applicants is the first step in tailoring your experiences and application to make yourself irresistible to the graduate programs of your dreams. Knowing what they want can help you get into grad school.
So just what do admissions committees look for? Their goal is to identify applicants who will become good researchers and leaders in their field.
In other words, admissions committees try to select the most promising students. What's a promising student? One who has the ability to become an excellent graduate student and professional.

The Ideal Grad Student
The ideal graduate student is gifted, eager to learn, and highly motivated. He or she can work independently and take direction, supervision, and constructive criticism without becoming upset or overly sensitive.
Faculty look for students who are hard workers, want to work closely with faculty, are responsible and easy to work with, and who are a good fit to the program. The best graduate students complete the program on time, with distinction - and excel in the professional world to make graduate faculty proud. Of course, these are ideals. Most graduate students have some of these characteristics, but nearly no one will have all, so don't fear.

Criteria Weighed by Admissions Committees
Now that you know the ideal to which graduate faculty strive in selecting new graduate students, let's look at how faculty weigh the various criteria for admission. Unfortunately there is no simple answer; each graduate admissions committee is a bit different, but generally speaking, the following criteria are important to most admissions committees:

Undergraduate GPA (especially the last two years of college)
Graduate Record Exam (GRE) scores
Recommendation letters
Personal statement
Sure, you knew these things were important, but let's talk more about why and the part they play in admissions decisions.

Grade Point Average (GPA)
Grades are important not as a sign of intelligence, but instead grades are a long term indicator of how well you perform your job as student.
They reflect your motivation and your ability to do consistently good or bad work. Not all grades are the same, though. Admissions committees understand that applicants' grade point averages often cannot be compared meaningfully. Grades can differ among universities - an A at one university may be a B+ at another. Also grades differ among professors in the same university. Admissions committees try to take these things into account when examining applicants' GPAs. They also look at the courses taken: a B in Advanced Statistics may be worth more than an A in Introduction to Social Problems. In other words, they consider the context of the GPA: where was it obtained and of what courses is it comprised? In many cases, it's better to have a lower GPA composed of solid challenging courses than a high GPA based on easy courses like "Basket Weaving for Beginners" and the like.

GRE Scores
Clearly, applicants' grade point averages are difficult to compare. This is where Graduate Record Exam (GRE) scores come in. Whereas grade point averages are not standardized (there are enormous differences in how professors within a department, university, or country grade student work), the GRE is. Your GRE scores provide information about how you rank among your peers (that's why it's important to do your best!). Although GRE scores are standardized, departments don't weigh them in a standardized way. How a department or admissions committee evaluates GRE scores varies - some use them as cutoffs to eliminate applicants, some use them as criteria for research assistantships and other forms of funding, some look to GRE scores to offset weak GPAs,

and some admissions committees will overlook poor GRE scores if applicants demonstrate significant strengths in other areas.

Letters of Recommendation
Usually admissions committees begin the evaluation process by considering GPA and GRE score (or those of other standardized tests). These quantitative measures only tell a small part of an applicant's story. Letters of recommendation provide context within which to consider an applicant's numerical scores. Therefore it's important that the faculty who write your letters of recommendation know you well so that they can discuss the person behind the GPA and GRE scores. Generally speaking, letters written by professors known to committee members tend to carry more weight than those written by "unknowns." Letters written by well-known people in the field, if they signify that they know you well and think highly of you, can be very helpful in moving your application towards the top of the list.

Personal Statement
The personal statement, also known as the admissions essay, statement of purpose, and personal goal statement, is your chance to introduce yourself, speak directly to the admissions committee, and provide information that doesn't appear elsewhere in your application. Faculty read personal statements very closely because they reveal lots of information about applicants. Your essay is an indicator of your writing ability, motivation, ability to express yourself, maturity, passion for the field, and judgment. Admissions committees read essays with the intent to learn more about applicants, to determine if they have the qualities and attitudes needed for success, and to weed out applicants who don't fit the program.

سلام بچه ها
من الان رفته بودم برای آزمایشی در موسسه علامه سخن ولی کنسل کردم
اولا از نظر خود موسسه: خیلی کوچک. میزها به هم چسبیده و فضا دلگیر.
دوما وقتی گفتم آزمایشی هستم. گفت کاپلان میخوای یا tpo. به نا گفتن که سوالای کاپلان خیلی خوبه ولی فرمتش با فرمت امتحان تافل فرق داره، tpo هم همون سی دی بود و باید از بین 1 تا 38 یکی رو انتخاب میکردیم 😳😳😳😳. در هر حال من tpo رو انتخاب کردم که شماره 27 رو برام اجرا کردند. ریدینگ روا زدم. تو لیسنینگ سر سوال 15 کامپیوتر هنگ کرد. بعد از 10 دقیقه ور رفتن با کامپیوتر به من گفتن برو بیرون تا یک کامپیوتر دیگه رو برات روشن کنیم. یک ربع طول کشید تا اینکار رو کردن. همینکه نشستم پشت کامپیوتر، این دستگاه هم هنگ کرد 😳😳😳😳😳
باز هم به من گفتن که برو بیرون تا یک کامپیوتر دیگه برات روشن کنیم. اینجا من دیگه قبول نکردم و گفتم امتحان رو کنسل کنید.
اول گفتن یک روز دیگه بیا امتحان بده که چون امتحان اصلی من جمعه است من قبول نکردم. قرار شد که پولم رو پس بدن
در هر صورت من اصلا این مرکز رو توصیه نمی کنم.
