【已录】Duke MMS FOB with Michele White[2018-3-5]+面筋整理+录取心得

dandelion333

3/13  在Applicant Self-service查收到录取了！

一些录取小心得：
Duke文书的重要性就不多说了，很注重diversity和teamwork，25 random things可以有很多发挥的空间。真的有一种把从小到大干过的事翻箱倒柜找出来的感觉，发掘出各种以前自己没有意识到的fun facts。

收到面试邀请之后，我在官网上找到了admission ambassador（都是alum)，然后在LinkedIn上connect问能不能set up phone call了解多一点这个项目，他们十分乐意，有两个还帮我mock了，给了很多很中肯的意见，这也使得我觉得面试的时候感觉很顺，还是很有用的

放上一些招生大使提供的信息,希望对之后面试的CDer有用～
Understanding of Team Fuqua: Team Fuqua speaks to the unique collaborative culture that is seldom found in business schools. Many assignments are case and team based. This system is also present at Harvard to some extent, but when compared to schools like Booth or Sloan, it couldn’t be much more different. Fuqua emphasizes diversity in work experience and culture and this is reflected in the composition of the teams. Each person brings their own unique perspective and finds their way to contribute to a shared goal

Alumni resources: You’re correct that during a significant portion of the program (25-50%) you’ll be balancing a full class load with recruiting and networking. MMS students are granted full access to all alumni databases and in my experience they have been open to sharing advice. The career resources center does a good job of preparing students for behavioral interviews and sharing more general job search tips. In certain cases they may help you connect with specific alumni to aid in your job search.

What qualities the admission office is looking for:
The interview is behavioral and they're mainly looking for people that have demonstrated three main things:
1. Success in their passions, no matter the area. This could be those from traditional backgrounds such as finance, consulting, or economics, or those from others like athletics, liberal arts, and clubs.
2. A strong understanding of what MMS is, and more importantly, what it isn't. It's not a guaranteed way to get a job, and it requires a considerable amount of individual effort to get one. MMS merely provides resources, it's entirely on the student to make best use of them.
3. An ability to work in teams. For reasons stated previously.

大概是R2最后一个面试了的吧，之前校友一直reschedule到最后还是没空，换成了admissions counselor给我面。人很nice，一直在记笔记，但也很conversational，放上面筋求好运~

1. How do you think your friends and family would describle you
2. Why did you make such commitment coming to US for college?
3. Any difficulty transitioning and adapting?
4. Your leadership experience
5. Describe a leader you looked up to
6. Team comflicts/ A situation in which you had a disagreement with teammates
7. What would you do if your teammate is shy
8. How did you learn Fuqua/ Why Fuqua?
9. Why do you think MMS program is a best fit for you?
10. Passion outside professional life and academic life
11. Career goals (我主动share了backup plan）
12. Understanding of Team Fuqua（因为我说了我reached out to MMS alum and stuffs)
13. Q&A


因为比较freestyle，讲到哪问到哪，有些问题记不起来了，记起来会上来更新的
附上面筋整理，祝接下来面试的大家好运！
