回顧一年以來的備考過程、臨考衝刺，以及分享成功經驗來看，我們察覺到了一些私校獎學金和公校精英班考試的重點變化。詳情如下：

1. 不拘一格降人才

各大名牌私立學校以往都不會接受本校學生考本校獎學金，導致了一部分學業非常優秀、家境相對優渥的學生爭相考出本校，獲取其他學校的獎學金。對於學校而言，優秀學生的外流導致了學校在高考中失去了絕對競爭力；對於學生和家長而言，相對額度不小的獎學金是對學生成績的認可和對家庭經濟的支持。

從去年開始，我們發現越來越多的私校放開了對本校學生參加獎學金考試的資格。例如， PLC女校等。公校精英班也開始不拘一格，網路各地優秀學生。例如，Balwyn High School今年特別在網路上公示，精英班招收學區外學生。

2. 寫作依然是重中之重

對於寫作的考量一直都是獎學金考試里的重點。每一個私校都非常重視學生作文的質量。一類私校不僅要求你在入學測試中英文和數學科目都達到最好top 11%，寫作也要達到同樣的標準。只有這樣，學生才可以拿到面試的通知。

寫作對於五、六年級的學生是很大的挑戰，信息量和想像力的廣度、深度都有限。期望在考試中，短時間內完成一篇甚至兩篇高質量的作文，需要平時大量的練習，同時還需要優秀的老師來進行講評。所以，我們特別開設了五、六年級的「經典閱讀寫作班」。將每一種文體的寫作都做到精確細緻，將涉及到的語言知識和寫作重點都詳盡練習，將每一篇習作精修到最高水平。其中，我們重點練習想像文和說服文，精選題目，包括歷年獎學金真題。我們的一個學生在不到半年的時間裡，寫作成績由middle level提升到了top 11%，一舉考上了Haileybury最高獎學金！

今年的「經典閱讀寫作」與「獎學金備考班」在4月初已經正式開課，同學們，讓我們一起再接再厲，在2019年私校獎學金考試中再創佳績！
