对，我写最后那段话，就是这个意思

先cong。
感觉lz就是一步步很努力很仔细走的很standard的牛人道路

lz应该25左右吧。问个问题，有没有觉得还年轻，就跟着设计好的path走一点不出位很可怕？这个问题最近很困扰。。。。

谢谢祝贺。其实也不完全是紧跟设计好的path走，我想去读书的很大一个原因就是想转front office，如果直接转很困难，所以只有通过上学这个跳板，因此才坚定了去读书的决心

Many ppl will worship so called 大牛, actually they are 大牛 only because they made it, butif you try, you work hard, you got confidence and determination... you can also be 大牛.

Good luck to everyone!!!

Contrary to most of the posts here, I find the last sentence reveals the true intention of the OP. Just want to point out to OP that when you use "also", you are automatically assuming that you are one of those “大牛". I concede that your profile is above average on this forum, but it's still far away from being called “大牛" by many standards.

For one thing, your GPA is mediocre, which might signal that either your aptitude or work habit does not stand out among your peers. Second, you write ok English but still make mistakes here and there, which might make your much desired metamorphosis  from back office to front office very painful--I believe you know why IBs in Asia are such a big fan of ABCs.  Remember that many people on this forum have much better academic credentials and professional experiences (just to be clear, I am not talking about myself), and they seldom regard them as "大牛" simply because this word is reserved for the few who really have a god profile.  

I guess the most imperative task for OP is to remember that when you are looking for an entry-level job in the financial industry, being too egocentric or even obnoxiously ignorant is not the right way to go. You can have some personality when you are in a senior position, but acting like you are a star while you are actually not will not help you win an offer.

In any event, I appreciate that OP shares his profile with us. However, I think less bragging and more application tips next time would be much more helpful.

Psychohistory, 既然我英文打的不好，那我就用中文说吧。我很遗憾给你这样的印象，因为这真的不是我的初衷。我并没有认为自己客观上是“大牛”，希望你看到了"so called"两个字。但我知道这个论坛上很多人会这么想，所以我才要刻意澄清一下。我最后一段话是真心想鼓励论坛上的人。

至于你说我的GPA，没错3.4+的确不是个高分，我大言不惭的列出来也正是想打破一种错误信息，非得GPA爆4，GMAT750+才有戏，我们中国学生就是太看重分数了，而忽略了全面发展。除了你说的“either your aptitude or work habit does not stand out among your peers”的原因之外，还有很多让我很骄傲的原因，比如3年完成4年学业，比如成为第一个加入香港学生会的内地学生，比如在美国exchange的时候赢得学院的演讲比赛，比如带领几个业余同学击败田径特长生获得学校4x100米冠军，我如果把这些都写出来，那不更是bragging了吗。

其他方面，我就不想辩驳了，因为我不想挑起战争。我不知道为什么会给你我在bragging的印象，我会审视我的communication skill并做出改进。我看了你发过的帖子，你好像在申请MPhil in Economics吧，祝你成功！

桃子大仙

很感谢LZ分享。
尤其是关于面试那一段，不仅有问题而且有LZ自己的答案，觉得答得很棒，果然是有w/e的人,而且的确知道自己为什么啊要出国继续念一个MASTER.
