             谢谢Albert兄的精彩解答！我想在一个全新的环境下迎接MBA的挑战，能够更深入的思考生活和工作。



                 还是想听听Roc兄的想法，如果您有时间的话。等您毕业以后说也行。

keledong：呵呵，Albert兄的见解已经很精辟了。如果让我说的话，可没有这样有代表性哦。不过，既然keledong已经点名了，我就说一下愚见吧：


1。open your mind： 这里有来自各行各业，不同国家，不同文化、种族，不同年龄的同学，他们的想法，思维方式各有特色，与他们交流合作的过程就是一个不断开阔视野，丰富知识的过程；这个学期的来自欧美亚的10个交换学生带来了耳目一新的感觉。跟本地同学的合作过程也是一个了解香港本地文化的好机会。接连不断的各种CEO talk，使你有机会接触不同行业成功的人士，了解他们的思想，总结借鉴他/她们的成功经验


2。study under pressure：中大的第一学期的integrated courses, 是一个比较tough的课程，短短的几个月要学20多门课程，虽然讲的不是很深，但知识量还是很大的。尤其对那些像我一样，英语水平不是很好的同学，既要学习专业知识，又要提高英语水平，写case analysis report来说，而且学完几门课程就要考试，同时新的课程又开始了，压力是比较大的。能适应这样的压力，我想对以后的高压工作有个很好的锻炼作用。（不过，别担心，第二个学期就好多了，有比较多的时间复习上个学期的课程，和可以花更多的时间用在自己喜欢的方向上面）


呵呵，先暂且说这么多吧，这些只是对Albert兄的观点做些凤毛麟角的补充，现在再看看其他XDJM的回复，然后看书了哦，又要考试了。如果愿意，我们可以接下来继续探讨。


还有，下次不要用“您”了哦！！

今天发email问HKUST的录取情况，回复说已被录取，但我的正式TOEFL成绩还没收到。真是奇怪，我去年考T那天就让ETS把成绩寄到UST的呀，大家有没有这种情况？

这个问题我去年也碰到过，呵呵

哎，记得听过一句话，一旦下了决定，就想相信自己选的是最好的。呵呵。

呵呵，同意！！关键时不要让自己后悔呀

今天知道Exchange的结果了，基本的分布是大陆的同学大多想去北美（米国，加拿大），其中一个哥伦比亚，两个The ffice:smarttags" />laceType w:st="on">UniversitylaceType> of laceName w:st="on">North CarolinalaceName> at Chapel Hill, USA，一个

laceType w:st="on">UniversitylaceType> of laceName w:st="on">TexaslaceName> at Austin, USA（我）；还有好几个加拿大的；一个家伙选了University of St. Gallen, Switzerland，不过，他一口流利的波兰语，哈哈；还有一个MM去了Rotterdam laceType w:st="on">SchoollaceType> of Management, Erasmus Graduate School of Business, Holland。香港的同学大都想去英国，或者欧洲，澳洲了。所以基本上选择的冲突不大。

谢谢Roc兄的朴素箴言，觉得你是一位比较看重生活的人。Albert兄的解答很有见地，也很大气。Roc兄的话语非常平实，但字字推心置腹，情真意切，我心底里很是感激。


斗胆猜想一下，二位仁兄日后如果都到在企业工作，Albert兄一定是一位很有魄力的领导，Roc兄一定是一位沉稳大度的良相。


Roc兄这么晚还回答我的问题，慎感不安，祝你考好。

Hello folks,


Below is the conversation between one of the candidates of CUHK and me. I post it here without his permission (sorry) for I think it might be helpful to you guys in some respects.


Sorry to those who had inquired of me here, for I was tooo busy to answer your questions one by one promptly. Again, I suggest you call me directly on weekend and I can respond to your concerns throught a direct way.


Or you may have a gathering to share views among yourselves like your counterparts did in Beijing and I could try to invite 2 or 3 alumni to answer your questions on the spot.


Wish you all luck!


Robert


    


    


Below are my comments on your questions:
1)Frankly speaking, CUHK (and also HKUST) is not in a very strong position of considerable prestige in mainland, especially compared with CEIBS. However, the recent years have witnessed the progress CUHK has made. Since 2002, CUHK has started to realize that she has to explore the mainland job market for her graduates. The intense CUHK alumni networking both in mainland and HK are extremely high-valued by MBA office and graduates theirselves. With the closer economic relationship and business transactions between HK and mainland, CUHK is trying to transplant her deep-rooted connection with regional industrial and commercial society, in which HKUST obviously is weak,to mainland. Taking myself as example, I had got several referrals from MBA office, professors and also alumni when I came back from HK for job hunting, and had got interviews from most of the recruiters. Believe or not, it only took me 3 weeks to get my first offer after my return.


2)Age could not be a problem as long as you are still energetic in and enthusiastic about learning new stuff. Actually, the average age of students for recent years are about 28 and 29. I myself was 34 years old, the second senior one in my class at that time. In my mind, over half of the mainlanders are between 27 to 35 of current candidates. They are all very mature mentally and experienced in their professional lives. I am sure you will enjoy the atmosphere of CUHK.


It is hard to convey all my thoughts about CUHK in a few sentences. So may I suggest you to log in forum.chasedream.com for there are lots of candidates like you sharing simillar concerns about CUHK. It might also help you to ponder over the alternative from different points of view.

Hi, everybody


I am    Marco from Seoul, Korea (native Korean).


I got an admission pack from CUHK yesterday and I'm happy to say hi to you


as an    international student for CUMBA this year.


I can't speak nor read    mandarine, so I read your information by using a mechanical translator (not so good!!).     While the translated words    doesn't make sense in general, but I can    feel    the atmosphere and your general asessment about CUMBA.        This    site is greatly helpful for    me..


By the way,    are there any IT or high-tech backgrounded people here??

Hi Marco, welcome to CUMBA community! Maybe you would like to take a look at the pics of CUHK campus before you start off.
