当年新东方的英语老师不也有去耶鲁河法国hec读MBA吗？我想你可以考虑申请斯坦佛或者TOP不要工作经验的硕士，然后出来工作几年再考虑MBA,这样可能有奖学金而且工作经验赚点钱还能考虑读不读MBA的问题，没准到时候你已经很满足了。而且你的G成绩也可以最大程度的利用。。

If you would like to work in Wall Street in the future, I suggest you to apply for some of top 12 B-schools because MBA graduates from 1st-tier b-school have big advantages on future career development. However, you could apply for the Master of Finance program in top B-schools at the meanwhile  because usually they focus on your academic records but not work experience.

If you don't want to work in Wall Street in the future, then just go to wherever has good reputation and offers you the best scholarship.

Good luck!

以下是引用苞米在2007-11-21 23:20:00的发言：

If I were you I would do my homework and reach out to people (in the U.S., not in here,) especially those current MBA students. You may or may not nail down a target school simply by talking to people from that program. However, most of the time you can get a pretty good sense about what types of candidates the school really loves.

Your decent GMAT makes you a decent underdog for top 5-15, and I don’t see any problem that you’ll fail to secure a regional top B-school offer. Having said that, I’d remind you that your work experience is weak and your chance largely rests on how well you elucidate your thoughts for the MBA through your essays. (Bottom line: do you really understand what MBA is all about and feel passionate about it? Or just treat it as a means so as to feed your family? Think about it before you move, as a MBA education is a huge investment in your life. Most people here have no idea what they really want, except for the rankings)

Great advice! I actually want to establish my own business in China. But my husband wants to stay in USA. I feel passionate about MBA study but I am not sure it is a right choice for me now. That is why I feel panic when I am writing essays. I simply can't convince myself.

实话说这届hbsmba中大摩高盛麦肯希这样档次的公司的学生非常非常多，而且历届如此，所以你的工作经验几乎得不到分数。。恕我直言，因为mba最重要的是挑选领袖人才，这是从过去的工作经验中获得的信息和你自己做出的成绩。。所以直说现在申请TOP MBA基本是非常非常渺茫，因为你想想全世界有多少高分背景超级FIT的人在申请？G730-760-780对于招委会没有区别，看得是你的经验。我认识一个780G的去了DUKE MBA,那是因为她在汇丰和外资投行干了5年，也认识G780的去了STANDFORD,那时因为他在外资投行干了4-5年。。那个DUKE的也申请了HBS, 但是被拒。。

劝你现在赶快申请TOP 的硕士。。什么能找到工作就申请什么。。别问我什么样的学校和课程适合你，如果这个自己找不到那就不要想进B-school了。。good luck

I agree with you. I don't see much advantage in me. I really appreciate your advice.  It is a pity that few top schools have master programs other than MBA.

看得出来LZ对top10不会死心。

想法，计划，实现 这三步很不一样

想法总归是想法。 LZ应该开始着手计划。yaoyao的建议我觉得是最实在的。top10不是想出来的，是申出来的。我这人心直口快，说句不好听的，就你现在的情况来看，top10需要运气。

相反，我刚开始还对top twenty抱有点期待，现在认清自己的背景了，觉得top30都够呛。所以现在反倒是重点考虑30后的学校了，甚至50后。如果不是考虑老公的情况，我绝对会回中国先创业或者继续工作个几年，再来申请。但现在似乎不允许我这么想。我前面说的可惜top的学校很少有MS的program，top是指top30。不过还是非常谢谢你的建议。

我觉得这个帖子同时也给大家提个醒吧。刚考完拿到这个成绩很开心，一方面自己并没有像很多人一样对这个考试很重视，另一方面的确是运气好。更重要的是，觉得不管读什么，奖学金是有希望了，毕竟不想给家里太大负担。但是在选校的过程中逐渐感觉到GMAT充其量也就是块敲门砖，你敲了，人家打开门了不一定让你进。（虽然我才刚开始申请，还没被拒。）所以觉得其实这个成绩的作用还是被很多人夸大了。

20-50之间有啥区别吗?我没决得差别很大.看今年usnews的排名.看了几个20几名的学校.没觉得比40几名的好.
