附上面谈后给朋友们的邮件，详细描述让人哭笑不得尴尬无比的经历。 Hi dear friends, You know, my second TOEFL got a terrible result, even lower than the first one, 79. In fact, I got it on my birthday day: 19th this month, last Tuesday. It is the most cruel and ashaming gift for this birthday to me. It IS unfortunate. Secondly, I wrote an email to the MSU MBA admission director to explain my poor TOEFL which is not demostrating my real level about English use and ask for an opportunity to talk with him face to face. Lucky enough, he replied that I could talk with him. So I went to his office this morning. However, more unfortunately, two or three of his problems got unsatisfactory answers from me. Even worse, I didn't catch up with one of them. You can imagine, the end is that he discourage me to apply this year. In addtion, he suggest that I do more practice and suspend my next TOEFL till Oct or Nov, not Apr (he knew I had registered the test on April 26). If I try in April, it stands a good chance that I still get a poor result. More satiric, at the beginning of the meeting, I said that my aim to meet him is to certify that my English level exceeds what TOEFL had revealed; but in the end, he told me that he regarded the result had represented the actual abilities of my listening and speaking. What's more, when we talked about my GMAT, he said the scores in Quantitive and Verbal parts are high but not astounding, because he had acquired high ones in his time; my reading is good, but my writing in TOEFL and GMAT are both poor. He also said MSU MBA can't wait till April to get my new result(cause I am an international student), so it is no meaning for them that I retake it on Apr 26. He said the GMAT result has a period validity of five years, so I can use it to apply within five years, for example, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012. When he counted these, I felt very embarrassed.I knew American are candid and straight, but I can't accept that he deny me without any consider about my feelings. It is the most awful interview experience in my life. From another view, it stimulates me about my dignity for myself. I will fight for my self-esteem! Next two months, you will see me in all Monday, Friday classes; aside, I plan to attend the Friendship House classes on one or two of other days. Here lots of thanks to you for the information about Friendship House! Let's meet there. Other time I will be at library or at home: studying, except for cooking. MSU gives up me, but I can't give up myself, right?
Now my goal is to obtain a satisfactory result to apply for UM Accounting. their requirement is total 100 or more, listening and speaking both 25 or more. In fact, I had submitted my application for it yesterday, the next step is to send the April result to them as supplement information. Thanks for your time to read this email! Let's talk when we meet. Let it go like a joke. Forget it and refresh us. |
