STS助力TA们翠录梦校
在有方荣获STS Top300的学员中，就有不少学员在收获一段独特的科研经历的同时，还翠鹿梦校继续深造！
曾参加过STS的G同学，在早申阶段就被麻省理工学院，加州理工学院双录取，拿下了自己梦寐以求的MIT CS的Offer：
有方G同学 / 美高
· 早申录取：MIT CS
· 学术成绩：GPA unweighted 4.0/4.0, ACT 35
· 参赛奖项：STS Top300
在采访时，G同学坦言这是他第一次尝试科研，在收获一段充实的科研经历的同时，参加STS的赛事经历让他学会尊重学术、尊敬科研。
在有方老师的帮助下，G同学通过一个研究项目将爱好和科研相结合并参加了STS，通过这段参赛经历提升自己的学术成就，赢得了梦校的青睐。
“经过这段经验，我对科研的理解更加深入，在享受科研的过程中也获得了提升！”C同学对自己的科研经历有说不完的话，相信也正是感受到了他对科研的这份热忱，所以才收到了MIT招生官的肯定！
再次恭喜进入STS Top300的有方学子，也让我们共同期待他们RD申请的好成绩！如果你也想通过精准规划提升自己的学术背景，赶紧扫码添加小师姐获得一对一的学术规划！
