Hi, Jon

i have seen a bunch of your posts before and i am sorry to tell you that you 've got another one right here need to be checked out, if you are willing to

Here is my question. i am a little bit dubious when it comes to spot a safety school. Could you please cast some of your opinions with respect to which school below do you think i should pick ,Hofstra,IIT,UTD , from your professional perspective as well as from an American's point of view? i have asked some of my friends ( they are currently in US)regarding this, but ,unfortunately,  there was just no done deal. it shouldn't be that hard i think, but since it is defined as " safety school" , it must be"safe" for its sake in terms of both my application and my career development. it certaintely should not be a causal decision.

Job opportunity and location ( it eventually boils down to the former in fact) should be alloted lots of consideration.

You have been very helpful all long Jon,and i look forward to hearing from you.

Should some of you guys other than Jon have your views , pls do let me know as well , you are all welcome !

Well dude, sorry i may be a little bit blunt, but, when we are talking about safety school, you are already ,if not 100%, know that this is the school that has the most posibility to addmit you, so the question here is just revolving around which is worth applying and whcih is worth going, given that three of them are actually in the same pool, at least for my personal perception.  but, thank you really

哦补充一点，如果时间赶不上，可能就用这个G的成绩去申了。

我倒是建议兄弟再等一年或两年。
现在就算能申个Top50，还不如一两年年申Top10呢。
而且你是supply chain，这么热门的专业，再学精点挺好的。

PS：相信你也知道，Top10的话，location不好也不影响就业。

Hello there! Thanks for the note.   I would need a bit more information to judge your safety schools my friend.  Can you tell me a bit more about your background?  erhaps even send over a resume to my email address at jfrank@mba2005.hbs.edu?  From there, I will judge the three schools that you have mentioned.  But it all depends on your background.  Also, Id love to know your test scores and career goals as well.  We don’t like to make quick judgments without some solid information my friend.  I hope you appreciate our careful nature!
