LBSMIF 莫误导楼主,JF的意见还是比较中肯的。 每个人申请top 10,背景占的比重为3成至6、7成不等。从楼主的情况来看,GT没有优势,年龄偏大,工作经验不拖后腿,但也谈不上impressive,因为类似的或者更强一些的背景在申top 10的中国人当中非常普遍。所以精雕细琢essay才是王道。包装做好了,Wharton,chicago这些招人多的学校对lz来说并非不可能,但是客观地说,lz把目标放在top 10中招中国学生较多、竞争相对不激烈且对年龄无歧视的学校比如Duke, Darden上面可能会更靠谱一些。 另外,推荐人位置有多高不重要,他们有多了解你,对你有多高评价才重要。 -- by 会员 tianya111 (2011/7/7 23:56:31)
Thanks Tianya111, that is what exactly I mean. I didn't expand on my answer. Nevertheless, LZ's background is quite competitive. I think he has a fairly good chance to knock into top10. However, LZ should not be over-confident. The competition is very severe out there. Good luck though. -- by 会员 LBSMIF (2011/7/8 22:37:30)
Hi, LBSMIF, probably I would rather choose the word" ok" or "not bad" than"quite competitive". I want to say straightlywhat I am thinking of. However, I do not discourage LZ to apply the best schools, since you never know if you can unless you try, and try hard. |
