数学与哲学
计算机科学
计算机科学与哲学
另外,申请帝国理工和华威大学的数学相关专业也建议参加MAT考试。其中,帝国理工的数学类专业,都要求递交MAT成绩。
华威大学的数学类专业的录取标准中也提到了MAT考试,优秀的MAT或STEP考分可以增加录取几率,但并不是必须项。
mat考试难度如何
我们来看一道2021年的真题。
(i)A polynomial p(x) has a turning point at(0.0).Explain why p(0) =0 and why
p(0)=0,and explain why there is a polynomial q(x) such that
p(x)=x2q(x) . (*)
(ii)A polynomial r(x) has a turning point at (a,0) for some real mumber a. Write
down an expression for r(x) that is of a similar form to the expression (*) above. Justify your answer in terms of a transformation of a graph.
(iii) You are now given that f(x) is a polynomial of degree 4, and that it has two
turning points at (a,0) and at (-a,0) for some positive number a.
(a) Write down the most general possible expression for f(x).Justify your answer.
(b)Describe a symmetry of the graph of f(x),and prove algebraically that f(x)
does have this symmetry
(c)Write down the x-coordinate of the third turning point of f(x)
(iv)Is there a polynomial of degree 4 which has turning points at (0,0),at (1,3),and
at(2,0)? Justify your answer.
(v) Is there a polynomial of degree 4 which has tuning points at (1,6),at(2,3),and
at(4,6)? Justify your answer.
2021年mat考试难度没有太大的波动,但题目的量确实是变多了,对考生的解题速度和准确度提出了不小的要求。比如会答题还不够,还得答得够快够准确,问题直接的逻辑也要发现得快。
