问：什么使你确信Tuck最适合你？
答： I wanted to be at a small school in a great location where I would make a close knit group of friends for life. Tuck has given me that and more. I visited over 20 schools while deciding on which b-school to attend, and Tuck was just the right fit. I knew it as soon as I set foot on campus.
I couldn't be happier with my decision to attend Tuck. My expectations were definitely met - and exceeded. Tuck isn't the business school for everyone, but the people that choose to come here - I think you would have a hard time finding a happier bunch.
问：有无领导能力如何区分？
答： We look for leadership in many areas (community, university and professional). We look for it in interviews, resumes, and letters of recommendation.
问：在ED这一轮的申请中，有多少人将被录取？
答： It depends entirely on the strength of the pool: there are no quotas
问：在Tuck 最有价值的经历是什么？
答：I would cite my forum project experience. It's an independent, team-based study of a real life business problem. My group helped a shoe company develop a launch strategy for a new retro shoe brand. Other groups did entrepreneurial projects or other consulting-based work. A great way to apply classroom learning to the real world. Very rewarding, esp. the interactions with the company.
The whole experience has been fantastic. On a personal level learning to play hockey was a personal triumph.
问：Tuck community是不是看起来规模太小了？
答： I love the smallness. Tuck never seems too small to me. I personally like that when I go running, I always pass two or three Tuckies, either also running or in a car. It's definitely a small school, and it's not for everyone. But if you thrive in a close knit environment, Tuck's great.
问：能提供一些就业统计信息吗？
答： I am not familiar with the statistics released by other schools. I think if you check out http://www.tuckjobs.com/ you will find detailed information there.
问：申请中容易犯的最大错误是什么？
答： The biggest mistake is trying to be someone other than yourself.
问： 各个国家的计分系统不一样，你们是如何比较各国学生的呢？
答： We have a fairly good knowledge base on foreign education by country.
问：Tuck好在哪里？哪些地方需要改进？
答： I mentioned it earlier, but the community at Tuck is what sets it apart in my eyes. I've never been around a more impressive group of people, and I will miss this place incredibly next year. I will call upon the Tuck network often in my career because I know they will be there to help out.
I love the experience of being here: I've never seen a friendlier, more supportive group of people in any context.
My favorite thing about tuck is the all-encompassing nature of it. People come here for an experience, not just an education. I am continually impressed by the energy and intellectual richness that abounds here.
问：Tuck与Dartmouth其他学院的交流怎样？
答： There is little to no interaction between tuck and Dartmouth. We do provide some mentoring services to D undergrads, voluntary of course. But for the most part, the campuses are physically and socially very separate. I was a D 97 here and don't feel like I'm repeating my undergrad experience in any way.
Just wanted to say that we always have access to the undergrad services-- like the performing arts center, gym, sports center, etc. We get full access to all their facilities.
We do have some interaction with Thayer, on a social and academic basis. We have a joint degree with Thayer and also can take classes there, and vice versa. I am working in a study group with a Thayer student for one of my classes this term. We also have social events with the other Dartmouth graduate programs.
问：你们是不是对待不同国籍的学生标准不一呢？比如印度和中国，他们的GPA 和 GMAT都相当的高？
答： No. We use the same criteria for the whole pool - academics, leadership, teamwork, accomplishments, diversity and desire to contribute to the Tuck community.
问：请用几个单词描绘 Tuck人？
答： Friendly, extremely bright, inclusive, supportive, hockey-playing.
问：Tuck在申请人身上最希望看到的三个品质是什么？
答：I would say academic ability, desire to make a difference (in business and the community) and leadership.
问：请谈谈滑雪运动在Tuck开展得如何？
答：Skiing is HUGE at Tuck. Killington is only 45 minutes away, and we make great use of our student passes!
Dartmouth has its own hill about 10 miles from the school and Killington is a 40-minute drive away
The Dartmouth Skiway is only 15 minutes away, and we have cross country skiing outside of our door.
问：今年的申请短文题目很特殊，有没有什么发挥的空间呢？
答： We've had great feedback on the essay questions. I think there is plenty of room for creativity because there is no one "correct" answer.
问：Tuck的评分系统是怎么工作的？
答： Grades here are on a simplified system-- high pass, satisfaction plus, satisfaction, and low pass. Grades are extremely de-emphasized here. People don't talk about it and the focus is definitely on learning.
问：做研究的机会多吗？做项目机会容易找到吗？
答： You can pursue independent study with supervision from the faculty. Because of the human scale of the school, it's VERY easy to get to know he faculty. In addition there are also specialised research centres (Asia & Emerging economies, private equity, digital strategies and corporate governance) who also get students involved in their research projects.
问：在繁重的学习压力下，如何在学习与娱乐活动之间取得平衡？
答： It’s an important thing to find balance. I decided last fall that there were a few things that I wasn't going to let slip, like running and time with friends. I think first year here is as much an exercise in setting and keeping priorities, as it is in academic matter. Tuck really teaches you to distill down what is important to you, professionally, academically, and personally. Balance is definitely possible!
问：学院的学生在录取过程中扮演什么角色？他们负责推荐吗？甚至参与某些决定？
答： We have 32 second year students (Mike, Liz and Matt are three of them) who conduct on-campus interviews. Yes, all of our interviews have the same "weighting" - whether I interview the person or one of our second-year students.
问：你如何联系被录取的学生？
答： We generally call accepted students to notify them of the good news. Typically, the person who conducted your interview will call you; otherwise, a member of the admissions staff.
问：哪里可以找到Tuck校友的联系信息？
答： You can contact Tuck admissions and they'll give you the names of alumni you can contact. It wouldn't be fair to just hand out their details to anyone on the net.
问：在面试中最常见的问题是什么？如果第一次表现不好，还有第二次面试的机会吗？
答： Personally, I like to get a good sense of the person behind the application. Most schools may start with the GMAT; we usually start with the interview because the personal connection is that important to us. I ask all sorts of questions.
Basically, no.
问：当你面对两个同样出色的申请人，但社会出身或背景相差悬殊，你如何考虑？
答： I like people who can overcome a challenge.
问：边远地区是不是需要进行电话面试呢？
答： Yes, we often will hold a phone interview when we cannot set up an alumni interview or a person cannot come to Hanover.
问：如果去年曾被放在waitlist上，今年是不是机会更大了呢？
答： We love re-applicants, but it hinges on whether you have done something to make yourself a more appealing candidate since your last application.
问：在阅读申请材料的时候，首先看重哪一点？
答： I usually start with the application itself - personal data, where is the person from, where are they currently living - that gives me the best perspective - then I dive into the resume, the essays, the interview and letters of recommendations.
问：去年共有多少国际学生拿到奖学金？
答： International students qualify for a loan of up to $30k each year. Some also receive scholarships.
If accepted, we work very hard to make sure that people can attend (low interest loans, need based scholarships and merit awards). Our international loans do not require a co-signer.
问：我知道你们对申请短文没有字数限制，那什么时候你们停止阅读呢？１０００字还是１５００字？
答： Brevity is a virtue!
Very true, but ask yourself: when there are hundreds of applications to read, will Kristine prefer, all else equal, a longer or shorter answer?
问：Tuck什么地方令你失望？
答： No disappointments for me. If anything, the program has exceeded my expectations.
Really no. The great thing about the size of the school is its amazing responsiveness: while many schools have an administration, ours is 6 people who know everyone by name, so getting things done is never a problem.
I will keep the friendships I've developed here for a long while. Tuckies stay active within the school, and with each other, long after they leave the Hanover plain.
I think all of us were applying to b-school two years ago during a very different economic climate. The days of $200,000 salaries and Porsches for signing bonuses were fresh in our memories. Things haven't turned out that way so some people are disappointed, but all in all I think most everyone is happy with their b-school decision.
问：学校对学生的配偶生活有什么照顾吗？
答： I'm not married, but about 30% of my class is. Many people move here with their spouses. Many spouses work for the college, in the various academic departments or research centers. Some work in admissions or Career services. There are also opportunities in the Hanover area for employment, but it depends on your spouses' interest.
Also, the partner network here is very active and supportive. Partners have their own social events, in addition to being included in all Tuck events. Some also audit Tuck classes.
问：简历中，你们最看重哪些内容呢？
答： We look for accomplishment, progression, level of contribution, leadership.
问：去年又没有录取过年龄超过３５岁的人呢？这种年龄的人多吗？
答： Yes, we have a few who would admit to being over 35.
We actually have quite a few people who are over 35 (whether they admit the fact or not).
问：您是不是作最后录取决定的人呢？
答： Yes, I see all applications. I am the person making the final call.
问：每份申请材料要经过几个人阅览？
答： Each application receives between two - three reads and then mine.
问：那些短文实在是太短了，字数上是不是可以灵活一些？
答： We are not counting words on our end. Nevertheless, being able to express a complex thought in a concise fashion is a virtue.
问：New Hampshire 是不是气候寒冷？
答：In the winter yes: some days the temperature doesn't get above freezing.
But in the summer the weather is wonderful.
Yes, it's cold, but as long as you dress appropriately, it's fine. The buildings internally are very warm, no worries=)
问： 除了在校生，都哪些人来阅读申请材料呢？如何组成的呢？
答： We have a small admissions committee of six people.
Between two and three + myself (so three - four)
问：你们那里的学生一般晚上多晚才能完成作业呢？
答：I actually came up to Hanover every weekend from Boston this summer to hang out with my classmates, enjoy the great weather up here, and play golf inexpensively at the course!
It varies enormously. Some nights it can all be done by 9 or 10. Other times I've worked until 4am. But then I'm not very bright!
First year I generally finished up with study group around 9pm and then would do another 2-3 hours or work. Bed around midnight or 12:30. However, there was a guy in my study group who was married with a new baby who made a point to be home for dinner every night and home for good by 9. Students are responsive to others' needs.
Fall term is tough. I mentioned that earlier. I often didn't get to bed before 2:00 or 3:00. I, however, had not yet fully managed time management like I should have. If I had really tried, I probably could have been done with my work by 10:00 most nights.
Once you get through fall term, your schedule can improve drastically. I could be in bed right now if I wanted to. The fall workload is tough, but after that you can definitely get to bed at a decent hour. It is all about your priorities.
问：夏季，学生是不是可以得到足够多的实习机会呢？
答：No problem, Deeps. I was VERY surprised by that, but it tells you that there are a lot of great jobs out there that aren't recruiting on campus.
Traditionally only 40% of Tuck students take jobs from Career Services - best of times and worst of times. Over 90%, however, get their jobs through Tuck sources. I strongly encourage a two-pronged approach using an independent search and a search through career services.
问：许多Tuck校友都很出色，这让很多人觉得Tuck很适合他们，但是他们如何表达呢？
答： If you're sure Tuck is right for you then make sure we know about it. In many of the interviews I've done, people haven't really just come out and said they want to come to Tuck. Sounds obvious, but it's a point worth making.
Just be yourself and do your research - talk to current students and alumni - and try to visit the campus - so you can get the feel of the place. It's an important decision.
