这是教授第一封回信:
Thank you for your interest in our strategy PhD program. Attached is a flyer containing some more information. And yes, we are planning to admit students for the fall of 2007. Your resaerch questions sound interesting, and we have several faculty in the area of entrepreneurship. Most of my current work can be found at the URLs below. I encourage you to consider applying, and if you do so, I would also ask you to consider a campus visit early next year. You should also make contact to other faculty in the strategy area. While your educational background looks strong, please keep in mind that admissions is very competitive, and a 700 GMAT is generally the lower bar. While your 690 score won’t disqualify you, you might want to consider retaking to be even more competitive, the current students’ average is 720, some are 750. On our PhD website, there are the addresses for the current students. I’d also encourage you to email them for some more information. All this is helpful to you in putting a competitive application together.
Please let me know if there are any more questions. Look forward to hopefully meeting you early next year, and to receiving your PhD application.
我的回信: Thank you for your informative email. I will take your advice and try GMAT again in December. I have already finished off my application materials and will submit to you soon. I look forward to visiting the school and the opportunity to meet with you early next year. Thank you very much.
没想到教授又来了一封: Dear XXX, Before submitting your application, and I encourage you to speak to some other faculty and current doctoral students to obtain more input on how to tailor your application, esp. the essays. Look forward to receiving your application and meeting with you in early 2007.
为何他一直坚持要我和其它教授联系呢?我该和其它教授说啥呀?又怎么要我和doctoral students联系修改PS呢?难道要我把PS给他们先看看吗?
