犹太人在学术界，基本就是smart , top10 , Nobel Prize的代名词， 所以别民族的嫉妒是情有可原的。

globaljay

就是高gpa和2年普华永道的经验，比版上牛人差远了吧。。。看看传说中的angela yu。。。。去搜索一下吧，那才叫 牛， google出来第一个就是她。。。。

在一个人的都智商非常高的国家能考上tel-aviv univ这个档次的学校并不比去mit读本科差，或许比美国人申请到mit，harvard还要难。

为什么 犹太人智商都高？神的选民？

top 5 out of 100怎么会只是Magna Cum Laude？

难道Summa Cum Laude只有1个？？？

酸酸的蔷

我也看到了,TM论坛上的,我也是看到他的结果后才去寻找以前的帖子看他的背景的.

说实话吧,牛是牛的.但是单从FILE上看,我觉得还没有牛到能有这种好结果的人(也可能是我把能被STERN,MIT看上的人过于神化了).

但是我不知道他推荐信的基本内容,推荐信可以改变一切!!!真的!

录取的过程很神秘,很多时候,就是和审美一样,大家众所周知,我们的审美和老外不太同的.

最近在等结果,无聊的可以,在论坛上瞎逛,看过去申请人的背景,羡慕人家的结果,顺着这个主题,我也贴一个人的背景吧,也是在TM上看到的:

Type of Undergrad: Good Latin American university
Undergrad GPA: 5.9/7
Type of Grad: Same Latin American university as undergrad.
Ggrad GPA: 6.4/7
GRE: 790Q 510V 3.0AWA
TOEFL: 108/120
Math Courses (undergrad and grad): Calculus I & II, Algebra I & II, Probability, Mathematical Statistics, Analysis, Mathematical Economics (dynamic systems and optimal control)
Econ Courses(grad): Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Game Theory, Industrial Organization, Econometrics, Aplied Econometrics, Financial Econometrics, Financial Economics, Enviorenmental Economics.

RESULTS:
Acceptances: Stanford GSB (finance)($$), MIT Sloan (Financial Economics)($$), Harvard (Business Economics)($$), Northwestern Kellogg (Finance)($$), NYU Stern(Finance)($$), Princeton (Economics)($$), Chicago (Economics)($$).
Waitlists: Berkeley Haas (Finance).
Rejections: Harvard (Economics), Wharton (Finance), Columbia GSB (Finance), Duke Fuqua (Finance).
Pending: MIT (Economics), Chicago GSB (Finance).

这个人GRE Q没有满分,AWA只有3.0.国际学生,本科GPA也不拔尖,T也是还行吧,貌似每工作经历,但是他的申请结果也太辉煌了吧,我觉得在我们的北大,清华里应该有很多人牛过他吧,为什么他受到这么多牛校的亲睐,我单纯认为是在推荐信上吧.

哎,摸不透,只有羡慕的份了.

今年的GT成绩限制比往年更严格了，去年他被拒的几个学校应该是没过第一轮的。
