我现在美读MBA. 想在下半年申请明年秋季入学的PHD。所以想请教几个问题。

also, try to attend the finance seminars at Iowa, they should have seminars at least once a week. Get an idea of what academic people are doing and see if that is what you really want and what you can handle.

Again, I'm here not to discourage you. But people with your profile are a bit odd among PhD students. At a school like Chicago you'll find many 23-year-olds math geniuses who have a genuine love towards their desired fields. The stronger ones will have already sharpened their basic research skills through undergraduate research internships and may have co-authored papers with Nobel price professors. They'd foray into cutting-edge areas early in the program. Most of all, your professional experience won't be valued much except if it's related to your desired field of study. Lastly, life in research may not be as cool as you think even after finishing the program. You have to endure modest, college-like lifestyles. Not sure if you'll be ready for that after working for 10 years already...

如果真的想好了就去做吧，这个时候做个决定不容易，不过倘蹉跎了岁月，也未免不是一种遗憾。

楼上的意见我完全赞同。这也是我为什么想请教各位，什么学校应该是我抅的到。什么是我应该主攻。50名抑或是100名。

嗯，前50就算了

100以后的也可以看看，现在金融还是很激烈啊

Why so many people deter me with tons of suggestions.

因为大家不想多一个竞争对手
