今天收到了TUCK的邮件,说了一些介绍学校啊,感谢我考虑他们学校之类的话。

感觉他们还是蛮友好的。我只是考G的时候填了他们而已。是不是给每个填他们的人都发邀请信啊?呵呵。

另外说到了CAMPUS VISIT,感觉挺难的,会不会对口语要求很高啊?那时候正在美国,不去行不行啊?

很怕。

To Chris, thanks a lot and wish you the best in your new job position.  Hope to see more of your articles in the future.

To Huangzizeng, I feel that as in many other schools, Tuck's admission officers could only talk about the standard answers to waitlist applicants.  But I could feel their strong willingness to help candidates out.  Actually I was late to officially enroll in the campus visit.  I called Greta and she immeidately added me in.  Tuck people are friendly and helpful.  They are nice and pleasant to chat with.  You will remember what I said here once you get the chance to go there yourself some day.

To hgconnie, not sure how much do you concern about your spoken English.  But I'll recommend you to pay Tuck a visit if all possible.  On one side, you could show your strong interest in it.  On the other side, you'll know whether it fits your personality and style.  Just relax and be yourself, and you'll do well.  I guess it might be easier than the future interview.
But since I'm an applicant myself, please wait for Chris' official answer.....
Good luck!

最后一课(补记:524日,星期四)

早上740分,诺基亚手机闹钟准时响起。像这个春季学期里的每一天,招呼女儿起床,洗漱,烤面包,喝牛奶,泡上国内带来的明前龙井,上网查邮件,收拾书包,一家三口在八点十五分准时出门了。与以往不同的是,今天我要到学校,上我在塔克商学院的最后一课。

陪伴两年的白色雅阁静静躺在屋前的草地上。掏出车钥匙,系上安全带,打火,倒车,前进。车缓缓驶出Kiddie Sachem (塔克专供带孩子的couple居住的小区),左拐,右拐,上了主路。过三个红绿灯,右拐,左拐,左拐,右拐,左拐,Tuck Circle 就在眼前了。

老婆接着送孩子上幼儿园,我背上书包,提着茶杯,迈步向教室走去。今天的FRSA(财务报表分析)的教室在stoneman,教授Howell先生一如往常,早早来到教室,和同学们聊得正热闹。这位老先生可不一般,据传,早年搞房地产,最近炒股票,是塔克教授里数得着的富翁之一。

8点半,准时开始上课。今天的课是各小组做presentation,因为我所在的小组上周就做完了,今天的课对我就是一个听。今天四个小组分析的都是银行等金融机构,估价的方法和其他的传统产业公司有些不同。教授顺带讲了讲他的心得,我呢,也象其他的课一样,顺便问问两个问题,然后抽空查了查邮件,呵呵。没成想,最后一个小组的一个美国同学,忽然cold call 问我问题(因为我一个人坐在第一排,而且这个问题和中国有关),吓我一跳,还没反应过来,支支吾吾地,全班同学跟着哈哈大笑。当然大家都毫无恶意。

很快,一个半小时的课就要结束了。教授向同学们征求对他的课程的反馈意见,并祝愿大家都前程远大。就这样,我在塔克两年的学习生活画上了句号。

中午的时候,坐在好久没来的sunrise中餐自助餐厅吃饭。耳边响起孟庭苇熟悉的歌声

冬季到台北来看雨,别在异乡哭泣
   
冬季到台北来看雨,梦是唯一行李
   

轻轻回来,不吵醒往事,就当我从来不曾远离
   
如果相逢,把话藏心底,没有人比我更懂你
   

天还是天,喔雨还是雨,我的伞下不再有你
   
我还是我,喔你还是你,只是多了一个冬季
            

街道冷清,心事却拥挤,每一个角落都有回忆
   
如果相逢,也不必逃避,我终将擦肩而去
            

…………

有谁能告诉我,某年某月某一天,我还能坐在塔克的教室里,和亲爱的老师、同学们“奇文共欣赏,疑义相予析”呢!

我倒觉得这个朴实的动作描写很感人。有朱自清的味道。

呵呵。大哥真牛啊!!太令人向往了!!

我来写一个浪漫的助助兴,嗯:

宁愿醉倒在TUCK的酒窝里,一辈子不醒。。。。

Just my two cents on Tuck campus interviw:

1. They will assign one current student (usually from the same country or having similar background with you) to pick you up from the waiting room and escort you to class, have lunch with you, etc. So if you plan to go to Tuck for campus interview this year, you might have one of us as your company.

2. The interviewers on campus are very friendly and amiable. Actually quite a few of them (including Greta) are Tuck partners (significant others of current Tuckies).

3. Tuck admissions office are EXTREMELY helpful and responsive. Feel free to address any concern you have to them and you can expect very efficient and coordinated answers.

I myself will go to Hanover this fall, and let me know if you plan to visit campus.

Oh, I almost forgot to post the following message:

Chris, congratulatioins and best wishes on your future endeavor on the Street. Your posts inspired me to apply to Tuck and luckily I got in. I'm really glad to be able to join this small but close community and have alums like you who shares, mentors and helps all the time.

Also, I'm sure you will have a chance to sit back in Tuck classroom someday, maybe next year's recruiting event of your firm?

All the best.
