How many Chinese students does the business school have?

JayZhang

I submitted all my materials before the deadline. Not sure if it's still ok to submit it after. I suggest that you get in touch with the admin to discuss the issue if you can't submit everything before deadline.

Not many. The program is already small. We only took up 6% of the cohort for the 2010 intake. So, There're 7 of us from mainland. 4 from Tai Wan.

I've got an interview invitation letter from Smith School. But the tricky thing is I haven't submitted my application materials yet. So, what's going on? And I'd appreciate if you could tell me how to get well-prepared for this interview.

JayZhang

I will start with the interview process. Admission interview takes on three forms-face-to-face interview, Skype interview and phone interview. Regardless of the format, The interviews are always very structured and behavioral in nature. You shouldn't worry about it to much. It's similar to job interviews. You can prepare for the commonly asked questions. During the actual interview, there might be some slight variations. There's nothing too difficult.

Best of luck with your interviews


With regard to early interview invitation, I recommend that you write or call the admin office. It seems odd to me too.

what do you think of the program of MS in Finance?
 How is the placement ?  and Are ms student close with your MBA student?

JayZhang

MS program is relatively new, but it's a very good program. All the courses are taught by very experienced professors. Smith is known for its strong research. So, most of the benefits are materialized in post graduate programs.

In terms of interaction between the two programs (MS and MBA). It depends on the courses individuals choose. We normally don't have that many classes together. However, sometimes we do sit in the same class. Still, it all depends on the individuals. I have quite a few good friends from MS program.

There are terrific professors in Smith. Don't doubt about the quality of the courses, just worry about how many courses you can take and how to manage your time to deal with those resources. If you take dual degree, you need at least 2.5 years to get MBA and MS degree. And the application only be accepted in the first year.  

class 2012 seems did pretty good job.
