As of Dec 12, 2025: This is a practical syllabus-style breakdown used for preparation. Official requirements and scoring formats can change. Always confirm your final requirements on the official portal and your target university notice.

If you want the biggest score gains quickly, don’t study “everything equally.” Use a high‑ROI plan: master the recurring core topics, then train timing with full papers.
How to use this syllabus page
- Pick your subjects based on your target program/track.
- Study high‑ROI topics first (listed below per subject).
- Validate with practice: do a timed set, log errors, retake after 48 hours.
Mathematics (high‑ROI plan)
High‑ROI topics: functions (domain/range, monotonicity), equations/inequalities, sequences, analytic geometry/vectors, probability basics.
- What to drill: 20–30 mixed problems/day with an error log.
- Common traps: sign errors, domain restrictions, “exact value” vs approximation.
- Next step: use CSCA Math Test guide + interactive math mock.
Physics (high‑ROI plan)
- High‑ROI topics: mechanics (forces/energy/momentum), circuits basics, fields (E/B), core experiments.
- Common traps: units, diagram misreads, assuming frictionless, direction mistakes.
- Practice: Physics mock test + full papers from CSCA Full Test Papers.
Chemistry (high‑ROI plan)
- High‑ROI topics: stoichiometry, reaction types, acids/bases/salts, basic structure/bonding, common lab methods.
- Common traps: balancing equations, limiting reagent errors, unit conversion, misreading conditions.
- Practice: Chemistry mock test + full papers.
Chinese Language (high‑ROI plan)
- High‑ROI skills: reading structure mapping, vocabulary/idioms in context, timed writing outlines.
- Common traps: “main idea” vs “detail,” tone/stance questions, time lost re-reading.
- Practice: Chinese mock test + timed writing drills.
Universities already accepting 2026 applications: Tsinghua (Zijing College), Fudan, Southeast University, NTU, plus foundation programs at Jilin and XJTU. Full list with links in our community.
14‑day prep plan (most people should start here)
- Days 1–3: high‑ROI topics for your weakest subject.
- Days 4–7: timed sets + error log + retake weak topics.
- Days 8–12: 2 full papers + timing adjustments.
- Days 13–14: light review + targeted retake.
