再来一句，“车到山前必有路”。

You should be confident enough,

今天和老师聊天,他说从analytical 转empirical容易，相反却很难。也许趁着年轻先做难的也是一种思路。可是难免担心能否5年毕业，job market如何这些问题。好像总是不够洒脱，难免想这些有点俗的东西。

I doubt Americans would think in such a way.

As long as the school accepts you (this is the premise), it is school's responsibility to fulfill your pursuit, and it is not your responsibility to meet the school's interest.We talked a lot about "match"; however, if such a "match" turns out to be a pure "copy",both interest and approach so to speak, I think it is a bad thing. This sounds very odd, but I believe most of the Americans would think in this way, as I observe. Of course, you can try both approaches, and obviously, in one approach you might be able to get more or better instruction. However, I would say, go for what you do feel like and what you are indeed capable of dealing with.Before you really engage with something, it is really hard to say.

非常同意！

我的老师也说，现在决定未来要做什么还太早了，应该在系统了解各个分支并且打好基础之后再做选择。我想，最后放弃某个方向的原因，更多的还是因为不喜欢，而不应该是不敢做、做不到。

其实CMU的资源还是很好的，除去analytical 和 empirical外，还可以去U Pitt选一些behavioral的课程，CMU自己有一个系（不在商学院）做行为研究也很强。

一直有这种说法. 可是我发现Cornell的marketing有很多中国人,挺奇怪的

另外,做behavioral是不是要有心理学的背景?我指的是系统的训练.若只是旁听过一些课程,似乎还是不够的.

我面试的时候说对这个方向也挺感兴趣的,那个老师就说"我并没有看到你上过什么心理学的课啊", -_-!
