转: 我在美国当律师

Thanks for sharing this book. However, it seems that something is not quite clear listed as follows:

    "我没有辜负她的希望，考试成绩比较好，“GRE”（美国研究生入学考试）数学和

语文加起来满分是1900分，我考了1300，美国人1100就录取。“托福”满分是640分，

我考了627。另外我还参加了一门法学入学考试（LSAT），如果集中精力考一门，成绩

还会更好。"

The author made mistakes in both TOEFL and GRE. What about the rest of the book?

I may be wrong. The rest of book seems interesting.

Again,chelseayang, thanks for sharing with this interesting book with unique insight.

Not everything in the story is accuarate. The author came to the States in the 80s (if i remember right) when very few Chinese did. He might be not as well informed of those tests as we do, or the tests were different back then. However, the rest of the stories is believable. Besides, even his career building story may sound a little bit out of date to us. A Wall Street Chinese lawyer may have writen a more intersting story. Unfornately, such stories are rare.

I think it is an excellent story. It somehow reminds me of another Chinese narrative written in the early 1990's (曼哈顿的中国女人). It talked about the story of a Chinese woman in America. I remember reading it on the newspapers more than 10 years ago.

With more and more Chinese in America, the stories must get more diverse and more interesting with time.

这个人是我们家邻居，好象祖父辈有过一些来往，听说在美国混的确实不错

他去的是NOVA大学的法学院，是第五档的法学院，在美国几百所法学院中排名倒数前几名。

他的发家是靠侵占大陆公司的财产起家的，80年代末，人们刚认识艾滋病，美国规定牙医必须每看一个病人更换一次乳胶手套，这样，导致乳胶手套价格大涨。中国的企业看到生产乳胶手套有利可图，就大量生产。但生产厂家太多，导致几个月后价格大跌，使中国生产企业运到美国的手套卖不出去了。这时，主人公和中国派到美国处理手套的人员勾结，以极低的价格代销这批货。然后，主人公开始给各个牙医诊所打电话，推销。最后，货出手了，中国企业亏了大钱，主人公自己赚了几百万美元。后来，主人公还帮那个合作伙伴办了绿卡。
