可以請問一下為什麼要把最喜歡的學校把第二輪嗎?

pumpkin

能够准备好的话，越早申请越好。不一定放第二轮。

学工程背景的女生，在哪里都很好，不见得一定要申请MIT, 伯克利。当然如果楼主特别喜欢那就另当别论。

本人背景：GMAT 760+5
国内本科GPA：3.4/40
欧洲硕士：8.5/10
工作：全球500强
工程背景，
性别：女


正在准备第一轮的申请，听经验的人说把最喜欢的学校放第二轮，所以准备第一轮申请几所，目前在看美国的一些学校，打算前十的申请两所，再申请一所靠后一点但可以提供全额奖学金的，前十考虑MIT， berkeley因为是工程背景，但听说竞争很激烈，因为一堆硅谷的工程师都会申请。
请问大家对具体的选择有建议么？排名靠后点又能拿到全奖的学校有哪些呢？


多谢了

Hey there!  I would be happy to offer up some guidance.  First of all, congratulations on a great profile! You have a great GMAT score and fabulous work experience.  Well done!  Given your scores, you have a chance to be accepted at ANY school in the US, including HBS and Stanford.  And I should know, I graduated from HBS!  MIT will be a great program for you, but yes--because it is so focused on engineering (as is Haas) that might be a bit more challenging for you.  I would consider Harvard, Kellogg, and Booth for sure.  Those will be easier for you to get into.

You will also have a great shot at landing a scholarship at Ross or Tuck--we work with many Chinese people each year that have received such scholarships.  I would NOT advise you though to apply to your best schools in Round 2--that doesnt make any sense.  Your chances will actually be a bit better in Round 1 than in Round 2.  So we suggest that you apply to some more difficult schools, AND some easier schools in Round 1.  Mix it up that way, so that you benefit from the fact that Round 1 acceptances are easier.  

I hope this help--let us know what more we can do!

Thanks for your evaluation!
Wow. It is beyond my expectation. I thought it would be difficult for me to get into HBS and MIT. So I almost quit. So according to your suggestion, I really should give it a try?

Hey there.  Absolutely, you should give it a try!  J  Nobody has great chances at these schools—but with your scores you DO have a shot.  We worked with a Chinese client last year with a 750 on her GMAT and she got into Wharton (with our help of course).  It will help that your GMAT is so high, and that you are a woman.  You have a chance, so absolutely you should give it a shot.  If you were a man from China with a 700 on the GMAT, for example, our advice would be very different.

I hope this helps—good luck!

为啥看后三行一头雾水？：）

单纯看前三行，申请哪所恐怕都有机会；再看后面三行，一头雾水，不知道LZ适合什么学校。
看楼主说的意思，似乎接受了太多的消息，自己有些lost了，这里又有好几个高手应答，希望楼主能够思路清晰一些。
最后想说的是，不知道你未来想干什么？如果你就是想去读MBA，希望你考虑一下是否有意义。如果有什么明确的职业目标，最好明示出来，也好让楼上的高手们有的放矢。有一个事实是，去年好多高手都折戟沉沙，LZ的这些指标未必比他们好多少，有机会多问问这些人失败的经历，也许对楼主会有帮助。

综上，我觉得LZ最好再开放一些信息，否则可能所有的答复都是有意义的废话。当然，第一轮第二轮的那些意见除外。

我觉得有啊，工作的公司，性别对申请有很大影响吧？而我的专业也许对申请mba没有多大帮助，但也是有影响，可能是负面影响。我实在不明白你说的那三行内容不能帮助别人判断的依据是什么？

LZ，你觉得那三行有内容吗？能够帮助别人判断吗？

Well, does it mean the difference between male and female candidate from China is that big? The male candidates are in a weak position already before they even read the applications?

And does GMAT really matter that much?

As I am a man from China with GMAT700, so what your adivce will be?

Thanks for your evaluation!
