一直潜水CD多年,索取甚多,未曾回馈,感恩CD,今天总结2年来的申请历程,分享一点心得。
背景:大龄男,国内211小硕,毕业后一直在国内某通讯公司就职到现在。做过研发,带过小型研发团队,典型IT男。
多年一直潜心研发领域,但降服不了自己不安分的心,因此想扩展下自己的视野,提升管理能力及扩充商业知识。
在强大“心魔”的驱使下,11年底开始关注MBA,第一个结缘的就是长江,记得当时在长江官方网上注册后,招生办老师立即就打电话给我,从各方面聊了很久,不几天就收到了招生办邮寄的招生资料及刊物,当时感觉长江很清切。
在了解基本报考条件后,就着手准备GMAT。GMAT对于毕业后就很少用过英语的我来说,确实构成了比较大的障碍。工作中除了看一些英文技术资料外,基本不涉及英语及口语。经过多年的退化,英语水平自然都还给学校和老师了,呵呵!没办法,只能逼着自己学,由于要兼顾上班,只能利用平时业余时间复习,由于学习方法不得法,GMAT考了N次,最后勉强考了个基本分。
1、GMAT:
在准备考试前,务必测试自己的英语水平,看自己处于那个等级,尤其像我这样的,多年不用英语基本就等于重新来了。然后彻底了解GMAT考试的考法与组成,因为GMAT不同于国内的英语考试和其他考试,因此务必了解透彻!比如说,这个考试主要考我们啥?我的理解:一定的英语能力+逻辑+推理+信息筛选/提炼+如何有效表达,简单的说就是:英语能力+思维,这与我们国内任何考试都不同。因此GMAT务必从这两方面下手,基础的还是英语能力:单词量,难句,阅读,过不了基础关就很难高分!!!各位同学,请务必注意英语基础能力的提高!当然逻辑思维能力也是我们中国人比较欠缺的,可以先看看《【中文版】简单的逻辑学》,《《学会提问:批判性思维指南》》,个人认为这2本书很值得一看!
再重点说明单词的重要性,单词为基石,最好有个7到8千的量,单词越熟悉越好!不然就没得谈了,为啥?看都看不懂,谈不上思维的,请注意这个考试有时间限制,而且时间特别紧,如果没有很好的英语水平,是无法短时间答题的,就是答了,基本都会错。如果大家看GMAT题或读GMAT文章能像读中文一样,基本就不存在第一关的障碍了,再结合前面2本书,平时多训练自己的逻辑和思维,基本就拿下了。需要说明的是:请戒掉中国人爱联想,爱主管臆断的毛病,GMAT一定是基于事实,基于已给信息的!做简单人,不要多想!
还有,注意学习计划安排,善于利用空余时间,上斑族背单词,记得利用单词工具!在自己英语能力没有大幅提高外,请不要连续两个月安排考试,否则就在浪费银子。
GMAT我考得不好,没啥发言权,提醒大家:1)提高英语基础能力 2)训练逻辑思维 3)合理安排学习时间  4)保持好心态 5)锻炼身体,别到考试让身体拖后腿  在拿下这些因素后,我想问题不会很大!
   
    2、申请:
    申请最好在学校的前几轮,这样有很多优势,比如奖学金,能早录取,避免后面申请竞争激烈等。申请前参加了学校的圆桌会议,一方面可进一步了解学校,另一方面可与招生老师面对面交流,提高熟悉程度,因此尽量多参加学校组织的活动,对整个申请过程应该非常有帮助。
    申请材料都要求在线提交,每个过程很详细,最重要的是ESSAY。 从最初预备essay到提交,期间修改了很多次。需要注意的是,避免essay的行文太流水和中国式,essay一定要提前准备,自己的story要能好好体现出来,我们每个人都是与众不同的,做最好的自己be yourself,写好essay后最好请朋友来改,如能请到外国友人自然最好。这里体会最深,自己写得文章总以为是最好的,但是请别人看未必是。因此请英语专家多提建设性意见,关键后面面试中,很多问题与其相关。经过多次锤炼,使得essay不拖后腿。

    3、面试:
    如果没有特别短板,一般都会有面试机会。在提交申请一周后,收到了学校的面试通知。
    面试准备:
    1、职业装,夏天男士们最好能穿西装打领带,不要担心热,因为学校冷气很足的。
    2、带个表,因为group discussion 需要计时。当时我就没带,感谢其他同学提供的帮助!
    3、英语口语:口语好的同学飘过,不太好的同学请及早准备,不要因为口语成为绊脚石。
    4、面试模拟:在面试前我整理过CD上众多学校的面试题目,结合自己的经历及材料再进行提炼,这个很有帮组,可以梳理自己的思路,使自己更清晰为何要去MBA?自己的优劣势?自己的规划?最好进行mock训练,找找战友及朋友来面试。
    面试:
    面试分3部分:
    1、group discussion
    本环节面试者都会拿到一份材料,一般5人一组,50分钟阅读,10分钟讨论,10分钟陈述。5个题目每人陈述一个题,
注意:1)积极参与讨论,做好自己的团队角色。2)陈述不超时,每人2分钟,用简洁的话阐述观点。3)团队合作
    2、career plan
    本环节主要对职业发展进行阐述,因此对自己的职业发展路线需要很清楚,注意:1、清晰的短期,长期目标 2、目标间有衔接性。
    3、interview
面试一般会围绕自己教育、工作背景及essay来问,因此请关注简历上的每个细节,不但关注而且要了然于胸。面试官一般会challenge,因此多想想你写在简历上的每个细节,细节决定成败。

另外:请表现谈定,有自信,注意礼仪,be yourself!

本人很笨,期间走了许多弯路,不过,天道酬勤,最终还是在特定的时间圆了自己的长江梦!

相信自己,不放弃,坚持到底, 做最好的自己!相信各位童鞋都能考取自己心仪的学校!加油!

感谢CD,感谢帮助我的各位同学!

大家想想,如果长江这么不行,为什么国外的大牌教授,讲座教授要辞掉美国教职加入长江?

曾鸣教授离开长江后,加入阿里巴巴,再过一个星期,就值好几亿美元了

这些官网上都有,为啥再贴一遍?
要你这样做,这几个版面不都被中欧给贴满了。

请申请的同学多做尽职调查,免得被忽悠。

嗯,读了之后对于中国的商业运作一下子理解深刻了,就是忽悠。以后应该再也不会被骗了。
