【求建议】关于定位和推荐信的问题（加州）

Enika · 发表于 2016-3-9 13:42:22

个人背景简单介绍是这样的：本科在加州(univeristy of the pacific)读的marketing，
毕业后去的日本工作（在日本最大的IT公司做marketing），毕业后在日本3年，工作了2年多
近几个月在国内，先是帮了一下朋友的family business，然后近期开始申请MBA，还是想回加州呢。
精通日语和英语，工作能力被评价还不错（这里各位大侠们必然都身怀绝技，我也就这些了吧，太见笑了）
剩下的就不多说了，现在有以下的问题想要求助大家：
1，因为本科GPA average其实并不高，现在在备考本月GMAT，预计也就600多

（从小没做过学霸，700实在不敢指望）
所以在考虑davis, ucla, usf, uc irvine, usc , long beach等等，请各位大侠们给点建议！
2，因为每个学校都需要推荐信，我觉得这也不是问题，问题就是，我以前等manager只会日文，英文完全不行怎么解？
（听说找同等level的colleague们写，效果也不是那么好？是否真的如此？学校的professor们说实话也没什么联系了，所以也难说）
我想请问大家的推荐信都是怎么出来的？

大概就这些了吧，提前非常非常感谢了

Hello there,
So my first comment is don’t worry about he LORs now. It’s too early. But DO worry about the GMAT. A 600 won’t be nearly high enough for you to get into the schools you mentioned. You have until July to study, so there is no reason for you not to come back with a totally amazing GMAT. First take care of this, and THEN worry about everything else. And take a course if it will be helpful for you.

Best of luck,
Jon Frank

Hi Jon,

Very appreciated for your advices. Im actually taking the GMAT this weekend and trying to squeeze in this coming Fall semester. (which i know its the last train to cactch on...) I will definitely try my best on GMAT and hopefully I can end up with a score at least above 650. dont know if this is enough tho..
In this case, do you think get the LORs from same level colleagues(those can read n write in english) is preferable? or do you think i'd better get them from my manager?

Thanks a lot in advance ;)

Hello there,
Unless you have NO bosses, I would not recommend getting a recommendation from a Colleague. Your recommendations should normally come from a supervisor. What you can do is ask your Japanese boss for a recommendation, and then have the recommendation translated, and mention that it was a translated recommendation in the application..

Best,
Jon Frank

Hi Jon,

Thank you so much! I will do that. I will ask my supervisor instead of my colleague.
Hope the translation will work well.

Best,
