请各位指点无W/E的本科生商学院专业选择问题(包括MBA)！

ziye码了这么多字啊！

很肺腑，很实在的评论！

建议楼主现在能在国内上班就赶快上班吧，看你的英文，以及求学的态度，应该会发展的不错。心里保留申top15的希望，等有一些工作经历了再出国也不迟！

To thecow10000:
Thank you!
As you mentioned, "Your chance of getting into top 15 MBA is slim without working experience." Other
schools are not worth applying? For example, UIUC, USC and UW-Madison,
I feel like the MBA is much better than MAcc of those schools, I want
to give it a shot anyway.

Here is the reason why I prefer to
study rather than work at this point. I'm quite reluctant to work in
the downturn. I don't think two years working experience will make
great difference. Two years later, the economy may pick up, and I will
become a more competitive candidate in the job market and have a higher
starting point. I really really want to go abroad right now. And my
family want it badly too!  I may disappoint them if I give up.

I guess MSF is more suitable for me. I'd like to focus on MSF application this month. However, if it is true that "Your chance of getting into top consulting is close to 0 with an education from 16+ ranked, MSF, or Master of Accounting."
I need to rethink about it, because firstly, only a few top 50 schools
have MSF, I cant guarantee that I will get ad from the best ones. What
can I do? There's no way out?

Those are my thoughts, admittedly,
sound kind of stupid to you guys. Please point it out if there is anything
wrong.  I post my problem here to communicate with experienced elites, and to seek for solution. I have gotten better perspective into MBA through this discussion. I appreciate your time and all the suggestions

先不去说动机的问题，U-wis和UIUC都会招至少1，2年工作经验的人，除非是成绩+background+career goal的大牛，你看下他们的网站发个信问下就知道了，态度明显比hbs啥的硬。UCLA，我不敢说有工作经验的牛人都能保证录取吧。Umich，曾经是很喜欢中国人的，而且这些人也比较年轻，但是GMAT,GPA还是比较看重的哦，Umich的评均GMAT就700多了。

那个中介有点大放厥词了，说实话，申请这事情找中介可以，但你一定要很明白其中的黑与白。

另外由于现在好学校的deadline都快到了，而且你对于申请不是了解得很透彻，建议MM先工作。这个是最客观的了。

我也对那个中介很疑惑:还说申不到这几个学校的MBA全额退费....anyway,如果我申MSF的话会不会好一点?工作我也在找,最近天天都是宣讲会,我会申几家喜欢的公司,但总的来说还是想出国... 工作了再出蛮麻烦的,对女孩子而言;以后年纪大了,要有家庭,考虑的就多了.现在我才20,有时间有动力和资金去读书深造,尽量现在出去看看吧...

一个很简单的问题:

商学院：How can you contribute to the MBA class?

企业：  Why should we hire you?

估计我对以上两个问题的答案不会令人信服。。。
所以我转而考虑不需要工作经验的master of finance了。。。。

We have different perspectives and I don't know if it's fair to tell you don't even consider 30+ MBA schools.  You will have a tough time finding a good job (or just a job) in the US without a top 15 MBA today or 2 years later.  I don't know how prestigious non top-30 MBAs are in China.

MSFE is easier to get in as long as you get 800 on GMAT math and have some quantitative and programmming course work.  But what do you want to do with it?  Most people come out of the program wanting to do trading in IB or Hedge Fund.  In today's market, you will be lucky to get a quant or programming job at a rating agency or accounting company.  Very very few people graduating with MFE will end up in a good hedge fund or top IB. No more than 50% of people at top programs like Cornell and CMU's MFE programs have offers (and mainland Chinese is not going to beat that average).  I don't think any of ones that have offers have consulting offers.

I can't say anything for master of accounting.  During the good times it was relatively easy for people to find jobs.
