13fall msf申请， 背景typical，求选校指导

听枫

任选课我肯定不写的，尼玛全给的是60完全没法写啊。。。而且我选的极其非主流，什么宗教文化之类的。。。。
PS:为啥你回复我在网页上接不到通知啊？

-- by 会员 不学博弈论 (2012/8/6 15:58:36)

这种不算作假么？？不算就好啊担心啊，我是看到学校的教务处上说是必须和限选不能删没说任选估计是可以删，教务处还说任选不能按百分制写啊，就是写p或者f吧至于回复通知么……我这里也是时有时无的……

Hello my friend.  While your GPA is a bit low, your TOEFL and GMAT make up for it.  Is there any chance your GPA will be higher at the time when you graduate?  If yes, that would be ideal.  Great that you will have a paper as well.  But yes, you are in range for a top 50 school.  Most likely you will find yourself in schools ranked 25-50.  If you have any idea where youd like to be in the US, that could be a powerful way to start to narrow down some schools.  I would also consider extra-curricular activities.   Remember, schools accept PEOPLE and not just PROFILES, especially when it comes to Chinese candidates.

Hope this is helpful for you, and do let us know what more we can do to help you my friend!

Thx soooooooo much~~~
BTW, actually I realized that my GPA is 87/100, but i'm afraid i can do nothing more about it.
Also, I've decided to take GMAT test again and try my best to get 750+.
As for locations, my first choice is definitely Boston, also I think Chicago or Baltimore is good, too. Well, I admit that's because I basically  have no idea about other places.


Since my GPA is a bit higher, do you think I'm a bit more competitive?
Furthermore, how much does paper count in this process? Esp. my paper is not that quantitive.

Hey there!  Thanks so much--happy to answer all your questions of course!  Once you get a 750 on your GMAT, your GPA wont matter much anymore.  : )   Your GMAT will be so high, there could be NO further questions about your academic credentials.  And as you know, there are plenty of great programs in Boston, Chicago--only one or two in Baltimore, but you should be just fine in the top 50 for sure.  Would you consider California?  UC Berkeley, UCLA--these are GREAT programs, and once you have your new GMAT you will have a shot at all of em.
Papers DO count, but they are not critical. For the sciences they are more critical--we have worked with folks with NO academic credentials in finance, but they still get in.  Why?  Because they have great financial skills--and schools are confident that they can get JOBS upon graduation.  That is the name of the game.

Hope this helps--good luck my friend!

Wow~That sounds really great~
Well, UCLA was once my dream school but I really thought I don't have much a shot of it, not to mention Berkeley.  Well, in this case I suppose I'd better focus on GMAT test now~Your kind recommendation is definitely a great comfort to me~Thx again my friend~

BTW, what about UK? Do I have any shot in applying LSE or ox? I know these are really top universities, but I really like Britain and I'm afraid other schools have really not much reputation in China.

学校的政策应该真的是可以的说，教务处的网站上有的，就是我听说即使学校允许的改成绩单被发现了也算作假？所以我比较忐忑准备到时候问问学校到底是神马意思
看这个

这个是法学院的但是和教务处上的一样，教务处的网站我这会打不开了……嗯说是任选不许百分制显示所以应该都是p或者f吧，不过说必修和限选不能删除，应该就是任选可以了这个我倒是觉得比较确定的

嗯，任选可以删掉的，你现在家里复习还是实习呢？加个qq多多联系呗~653761959

只能说Jon Frank一直是MBA思路，完全不了解MSF，UC系统里只有Santa Cruz有一个应用经济和金融，剩下的没有一个学校有MSF，伯克利和UCLA都是MFE，LZ基本是申不了的；

LSE和牛津都是有机会的，LSE从录取的角度讲可以申A&F/MRR/管理学这种不是最火的专业

嗯哼，我也发现回去一看UBC和UCLA有MSF的说，我本人是很诚恳的觉得MFE是不可能的……我觉得我也学不了所以完全木有这么想过……


嗯看来LSE可以申的专业也应该好好了解一下的说~

P.S.: A&F是accounting and finance？

是的，英国很多学校都是Acct和Fin不分家，LSE的Fin/FEcon/Fin&E都是大热专业，录取率很低，其他几个会容易一些，管理学我觉得基本能中（只不过是两年的）

加州倒是有一个CMC有MSF，很牛的文理学院，中国人超少，不过不妨一试
