After being rejected by LBS and U of Cambridge, finally I got my first MBA offer from U of Oxford!
Hurray!

震撼！
这样的才是牛人
nice to meet again, jlj shijie
let me know after you decide
Viam, what you did has set a good example for Cambridge MBA's tradition, thus helping me make my decision between Oxford and Cambridge as well.
Meanwhile, could you please tell me when the decision for St. Catharine's scholarship and the Cambridge Trusts' Scholarship will be made?
Everything equal, financing support will be a major factor in my decision.
Thank you
Oh... Could you share your reason why MBA now after working for 16 years. You must have a good position or salary....
Thanks for all your congrtulations. Being an old MBA applicant, I applied for an MBA in Cambridge and Oxford MBA for the purpose both to fulfill my dream and to have a further improvement in my banking career. I am now the head of two operation departments of a commercial bank branch, that is why I chose the one year program in UK not the two years program in USA. To me, money is not the most important. To try my best to study in a top world famous university such as Cambridge and Oxford is the most important thing. Good education will benefit you all your life. As I am very very busy and relatively old, the school will certainly understand my low GMAT is acceptable.
我拿了MFE的offer,跟你们凑凑热闹行不？
jlj0917, I am able to log on CD again.
On Businessweek forum , there is a thread "OXFORD MBA" which might be informative for your choice. Please follow that thread.
Vicm, ella,
Please tell me something about the Cambridge MBA's financing focus. Thank you
I have made up my mind to accept the Oxford Offer. It is really hard to choose. Anyway, Oxford sounds stronger on finance which I want to develop in the future. Thank all the friends for helping me so much in my application.
呵呵，我也拿到oxford的mfe的录取了，大家觉得他和帝国理工的金融比怎么样啊？？？

it is a pity that you did not choose cam. but it is true that Ox is stronger in Finance. Congras!!! and you will surely enjoy the year! Be careful not to drink too much.
Good luck!it is a pity that you did not choose cam. but it is true that Ox is stronger in Finance. Congras!!! and you will surely enjoy the year! Be careful not to drink too much.
Good luck!
it is a pity that i did not meet you there in person. where are you now? Paris? Beijing?请问 jlj0917 前辈,
申请剑桥的MBA, TWE成绩一定要求5分吗? 如果低于5分有没有申请成功的希望?
jij0917,
I have decided to take Cambridge Offer. Sorry that we cannot be classmate. It is very difficult for me to give up Oxford offer.
All others. here is my thoughts on Cambridge and Oxford:
For a Chinese student, the similarities between the two are far greater than the differences bwteen the two.
Having said that, Oxford is strong in Finance and Cambridge is strong in Hi-tech.
The ranking thing (FT, etc.) should be understood in a way that both MBA are on a simiar level rather than one is certainly better than the other. FT2002 ranking showed higher scores for Cambridge while FT2004 shows higher for Oxford.
According to latest info from Cambridge admissions, salaries increase and percentage of graduates working in UK are very close that those figures from placement reports of Oxford 2003-04.
One last point, I was told by Cambridge that the highest salary for MBA 2003-04 was got by a Chinese who are working in Shanghai. He probably earns a some USD300K while the average for the class is USD110K. He might work on Venture Capital ( I am not quite sure, too crowed and I could not hear clearly). Anyway, it is very exciting news, isn't it!!!!!
好厉害哦

Dear Wei-z-z,
Congratulations! It is a pity that we can not be classmates, but we can be the oxbridge members. We can meet in cambridge and oxford during the term. It sounds Cambridge is a bit more famous than Oxford in China but less popular in the United States. I do think both are the same and we would not regret for going to any of them.
jij0917 HI, I am also in UK and want to apply for oxford in 2006. May see you there....
can some insiders share the employment record of chinese students in these two schools in the past two years?
thanks!
谢谢啦。大陆学生容易申请汇丰的贷款吗。
Congratulations! DanielZhuang.
Have a try, you don't get anything if you don't try.
Apply HSBC loan, it is not very difficult.
Talk to Jo Grantham, She is very nice and helpful.
Welcome to Judge and good to be classmate.
There is a yahoo group for Cambridge MBA 2006. Join it.

Daniel:
try to apply for scholarship and loans. some college offer small amount as well. congrads and welcome on board, well, if you can make it.
I am very excited to find so interesting information today. It's quite funny that I am still considering whether to apply for 2005 Cambrdige MBA and Master in finance in LBS though deadline of LBS is 1May05. I need to work very hard this week!
I got 670 in GMAT, but my working experience is very strong - 9 years in three top EU companies (industrial, banks and consulting). I will finish LBS first before labor day and then Cambridge during labor day. Does any one know that whether it's still possible for me to be accepted by the two schools?
In fact, I like Cambrdige very much after I visited it's campus in 2001. Cambridge is like a dream for many Chinese, though it's business school may not be a top school in the world. Any way, money is not important for me. As to tuition, it's quite high. Probably I miss the chance to apply for scholarship. I will try the loan if I can be accepted. Hope to succeed and be classmates of some of guys here.
it is a pity that i did not meet you there in person. where are you now? Paris? Beijing?zm and Ella,
Since you are insiders from oxbridge, can you let us know the job placement of Chinese students these years?
thanks
jlj0917, is your family going to Oxford with you?
Any updates?
牛人啊！需要学校给你deposite确认信,当初也给我EMAIL确认，但我还是找他们要了个书面的。

多谢前辈，我得赶紧去找SALLY要这些东西。听说英国签证只能在开学前三个月签，我得在七月初去办签证了。

你好！真牛。你说如果我回国的话现在是金融PHD好找工作还是会计PHD？？？现在美国会计PHD热得不得了，你说如果我英国的会计PHD与金融PHD比较的话，哪个回国工作比较好找？薪水更高？？
谢谢

真不好意思，这个我倒没有比较过。可能会计的就职范围更广一些吧。至于薪水，我不是很了解。抱歉！
jlj0917,
I'm quite curious about your post-MBA career goal, after over 10 years W/E in operational depts of the commerical bank.
Mind share?
Congratulations anyway!

Hi Jlj0917,
Thanks so much for sharing your case. Wow~half sponsored by your bank! Admire~
Do you think that a top MBA degree is vital for promotion into senior management, say VP or GM of a branch etc, in the foreign bank?
Actually I'm working in the marketing dept of a foreign bank and am weighing whether to chase for such degree. Also, are there any native Chinese, in your bank, that are promoted to senior management (GM of a branch etc)
Thanks again!
robably that's the reason i didn't go back. Hi Jlj0917,

jlj0917 sister,
You definitely make great sense.
Nevertheless, what wonderpiece bro says is also what I concern. Personaly, I feel that personal network accumulated might count more in the commercial banking arena.
As well, I personally feel that native banks care more about the degrees and brands. While in foreign banks, the bosses care more about the profits one can earn :-)
Still, thanks so much for sharing! And may you everything well in SAID, which is indeed a great school!
Wonderpiece bro,
Thanks indeed for your inputs as well!
佩服啊，这就印证了，分数不是绝对的道理！！！！
我又有信心了。
Hi,Vicm, I would love to meet you in UK in September. I also should thank you for your kind help, too.
Have you found your job yet? Wish you success!
Hi jlj0917,
I am R2 admit of SBS, a Taiwanese working in Shanghai now. Since you are coming to Shanghai for visa application, I wonder if you want to have a coffee together while you are here?

Hi, iamandy,
It would be lovely to find a classmate in Shanghai. I plan to prepare my visa material in late June. I was told that there was an agent for visa application in Hangzhou now. Anyway, we can contact each other. See my short message for details.
Sure, just let me know when you are in Shanghai.
Did you join the yahoo group of Oxford 2005-2006? There're a lot of useful information. I just got last year's reading lists for reference.
