肇庆自学考试专升本试题

自考作为提升学历的方式之一，是很多考生们选择的学历提升途径。那么，自考本科有几次考试机会呢？考题难不难呢？其实，自考本科在湖北省一年有2次考试机会，分别在每年的4月和10月，自考的考试是不限制次数的，只要你把所有的考试课程都通过了，就可以申请毕业。可能有人会担心自考的难度，其实，考生们大可不必过于担心，自考的难度不会非常高，如果你想要直观地感受考试难度，可以通过查找历年真题试卷，自己做一做来判断难度，这样对于你个人来，会更准确。有考生想要知道今年10月自考的试题难度，很抱歉，现在考试还没有开始，试题还没有出来，我们也不知道难度如何。建议考生们还是通过做4月自考，或去年自考的试题来练练手，提高自己的考试成绩。那么，如何有效地利用历年真题呢？1.亲自动手做很多考生复习真题的时候不动手。而只是简单的阅读，这样的效果往往不甚理想。在平时复习的时候，一定要勤于动笔，做题时一定要动笔将答案写出，看与标准答案的差距在哪里，同时做题本身就是对该问题的又一次升华，这对于知识的掌握和发现“盲点”都是非常有用的。2.不断地反复看对于历年真题的利用中，很多考生认为，我做了一遍，所以以后就把它放在一边了，这是不行的。历年真题一定要反复看，“温故而知新”。而且你看得多了，哪些是重点，哪些是陷阱。哪些是难点，这些知识点可能会以什么角度命题，这样才会有更深的理解。3.把真题做三遍第一遍：找一套试题仔细阅读题目说明及要求，对自学考试有个清醒的认识。第二遍：把第一遍的笔记及答案擦掉。然后清零脑子里的答案，重新再做一遍。这一次，你依然不可能全对，尽管你脑海中还有答案的印象。而且你会发现，再出错的部分是你容易混淆的部分。做对的部分证明你通过第一次记住了，完全掌握了。再出错的部分是你要下功夫的精华部分。这一遍一定要认真做。不要以为看过答案了就掉以轻心。第三遍：时间最好安排在邻近自学考试。这次，主要是找考试的感觉。总之，千万不要忽略了历年真题的作用，把它利用好，能带来事半功倍的效果，既省心、省时、省钱，又高率。对真题的使用应该是多层次的、彻底的、全方位的。比如说做完题目之后一定要对真题进行反复的精读，应该要做到能够彻底读懂吃透真题里面的每一个印刷符号。
