困惑：MBA, or ACCOUNTING, or FINANCE？

greenfish · 发表于 2003-8-13 23:44:00

刚考完G，成绩还比较理想，700+，准备十月考T。
我的情况：会计专业（国内一流），但GPA不是很高；已毕业4年，在国企上班。
我不大清楚ACCOUNTING与FINANCE的区别，是不是说前者注重理论研究，后者注重实际操作，就象财务管理？这两个专业哪个更难申请？奖学金情况呢，是不是最多只能半奖？
MBA是不是更难申请，且奖学金更少了？
我的PS还没写，10月考T的话是不是就赶不上大多数学校的第一轮申请了？越往后申请机会就越少是吗？
谢谢各位了！现在实在是没有什么头绪！

I'm not sure about the difference between Finance and Accounting. But, between MBA and Accounting, there is a lot of difference. MBA focus on management skill, although it covers some accounting area. It will give you more opportunity in different areas. Accounting master of course focus on accounting. Your career choice will be limited. So, over all, it really depends on what you're looking at your future career.

在美国, ACCOUNTING是ACCOUNTING, FINANCE是FINANCE,而不是国内所说的"财务". ACCOUNTING的定义国内外差别不大,具体FINANCE的定义,你在本坛好好搜索一下,会找到详尽答案的.

在MASTER LEVEL, 两者都是更注重实际操作,而非理论研究.

奖学金相比其他非商科专业来说,都更难拿,但不是没有可能. 难不难申请,奖学金多不多,都是相对的,还得看你自身条件如何,谁都不能给你一个绝对的答案. 有的学校第一轮是11月1日,后面的机会是不是更少也不是绝对的.我们这儿很多XDJM都是第二轮申请拿到OFFER的...

好象你自己都不清楚自己想干什么. 建议你自己先做一些RESEARCH,比如把论坛的贴子基本流览一遍,向相关学校网站搜索相关专业的信息,等等.

GOOD LUCK!

Hi, Fei MM,
I got to know that you were admitted as a MBA of 03 by Mcombs. I am still interested in apply for its MBS of 04 with concentration on SCN. A few points I need you to help me out:
1). In the website of the school, TOFEL score can be waived if your verbal is over 35. Is that true?
2). Is its SCN course strong in US?
3). Is my chance to get a scholarship possible? (G: 720; T: 647 8 working experience in a famous US company.

Your help is highly appreciated!

1). In the website of the school, TOFEL score can be waived if your verbal is over 35. Is that true?

Yes, it's true. If your verbal in GMAT is over 35, your TOEFL can be waived.

2). Is its SCN course strong in US?

(Sorry, but before I answer this question, I want to make sure what SCN is short for. )

3). Is my chance to get a scholarship possible? (G: 720; T: 647 8 working experience in a famous US company.

Are you an applicant outside Texas? Only non-residents and international students are qualified for most of its scholarships, since Texan residents are qualified for in-state tuition. Besides your scores and w/e, your essays and interview are also very important to help your get scholarships.

HI, Fei MM,

Thanks for your quick response.
1). SCN means " supply chain network". I am working as a logistic manager.
2). I am an international applicant(working in Mainland China).

Appreciate your great support!

FYI, I don't think McCombs is strong in supply chain network. Actually the strength McCombs lies in is Energy Finance, MIS, and Accounting, etc.

Probably Michigan or CMU has stronger concentration in this field.
