Columbia Class 2009 Chinese答疑专贴

mugi

请问columbia的前辈，columbia的background check都查那些啊？我一共有4份工作，最开始的两份是小公司，真担心里面的人早就不认识我了了，这么多年了。。。

问一个很愚蠢的问题：

我在哥大的网站上为什么找不到EARLY DECISION 的链接呢？ 我跟ADMISSION 联系了，他们把我REGULAR DECISION 的 log in inactive后，我还是只能进入REGULAR DECISION 。

很着急！多谢！

像这样的问题我们是很难回答的，请还是尽量联系admission office解决。谢谢！

一般是查两个工作吧似乎，我当时交了两份资料，但是只查了最近的一个。
这个问题暂时不用担心吧，等到拿到offer之后再着急也不迟，反正很多学校都要check background，都一样要deal with it

columbia每年的essay题目是不是都不一样？我很想知道去年的essay题目是什么(也就是说class of 2009的各位校友当初申请时遇到的essay问题。不是early decision那轮的，是normal的那种)，以便和今年做比较。但是搜了很久也没有找到。能给个链接吗？非常感谢～～

   准备了很久   打算趁国庆 Finalized 一下自己的package   谁知道遇到一个烂项目  把我国庆的假期都Cancel了 晚晚OT到深夜 结果在11号凌晨两点才Submit 幸好有时差 

   原本有许多觉得可以改善的想法  找了很多朋友  听到了很多建议   都没有落实到申请上 真是谋事在人   成事在天 

      把希望寄托来年吧   谢谢校友们一直以来的热情相助  谢谢 御风行！ 谢谢 Suncola！

     毕竟是SUBMIT了  放下了心头大石  祝大家好运 !

Buddy, if admited, you may be one of the most sophisiticated students, even in worldwide scale.

Why MBA? how will 2-year study will affect your career and family? is it cost-efficient?

those are my questions to you, and i think those is what you should ask yourself. and every applicant and MBA student should ask herself, just as Gauguin did:

Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?
