For friends who are interested in Duke, please refer to my profile for your reference:
Academic: Civil Engineering, 211 bachelor, tsinghua master, GMAT 730+4 (So, dont worry about your awa), Tofel 108
WK: 2 years working in Korea for international marketing, 2 years in Saudi Arabia representing the government for project management, diverse international experience in Asia.
Application Experience: I was rejected last year and re-applied this year. I truly appreciated the past one year that granted me more maturity and deeper understanding about life and career. Through the whole application process, I met some wonderful alumni and current students who demonstrated to me great spirit of Team Fuqua.
Tips: 1. Score is more or less a hygiene line, as long as you pass the bottom line, it will not provide more information to the AC about you.
2. Do something interesting, then we can add diversity to the MBA community and attract the attention of AC.
3. Essay is important! Truly Important. While other elements of application package are the same, a moderate quality of my essays only put me on the waitlist of Ross while greatly improved ones brought me the offer.
4. Duke really cares about applicant's committment. (the first question of my interview is just Why Duke 8-) ). Please show your passion!
Guys, good luck to your applications. Hope to see those admitted friends as soon as possible.
