大家帮我看看－应该接受这个admission吗

Elynn_Chen

差不多就行了，要多牛算牛啊？

一定要top mba么？

lz可以想想，到底为什么要top mba.

出国还是要出的，原因在于不论如何，这都是个经历。你现在需要这段经历。

但是你到底是不是需要一个top mba.你自己要想好了。

关键是这个经历要11万美金去换。UCSD一点奖学金都不给。

我现在也很犹豫，拿了点儿米，但是自己还要出5-6万。学校是2nd tier.  犹豫是不是要重考GMAT（目标 750+）, 害怕学校的排名和不够competitive的GMAT分数难以让自己毕业后再回到consulting行业。

我不知道学校的排名有多重要，老美告诉我，top 20之外都差不多，说UCSD比中西部的学校要好。我们公司的美籍华人建议我干脆别去，什么都不要读。说让我争取一个外派的机会，然后想办法留在那里最妥当。其实我很向往San Diego的海滩，但是11万就换个在海滩上感受一下，再加两年的机会成本，不知道应该不应该冒这个险。

there are more b-schools in california which have more beautiful beaches.

uc-irvine, pepperdine, uc santa barbra.

all above have better ranking than ucsd. as i know, you may get a offer according to your background.

if you like beaches, why not try the others? maybe get some schorlarship.

Agree, there are many more schools that are better than UCSD in CA which offer nice scholarships. I don't think it is worth to spend that much money to go. You deserve a better school, just try to find out the problems in your application. If you faied so many schools, something must be wrong, I don't think GMAT is the only factor. I know someone with GMAT score lower than yours got into a Top 20 school.

I have more concern now.   It sounds Business Schools ranking after top 20 are in the same level.  So Purdue, Kelley, OSU and MSU are not as good as I thought before.   

Maybe I should give up the offer.   In order to get into top15 schools, A cut-throat GMAT score may be what I need most now.

LZ这个办法是个不错的。如果有机会外派出来是最好的。另外感觉在美国这边申请比在中国容易。11万去UCSD太不值得了。

That is not true. The ranking is determined by several factors and actually there are just minor differences in terms of the scores which determine the ranking. Take a look at the placement report, it may help you to make the judgement. Generally speaking, Top 15 schools are better, if you get nice offers from Top 15, then just go. But Top 20 to Top 50 schools are not that bad, there are always some, if not many, students who get better jobs than those from Top 15. From my research, most of these students from these schools get an average salary around $80k to $90k, which is not that bad. The high end may be somewhat around $120k to $140k(this number may not mean too much since I think it is more up to the individual's effort.) Most of Chinese students in these schools also get good jobs.

I have no ideas about those falling out of Top 50, so no comments.
