2、assandra! I've gone and written you a long, long email. It has helped me to clarify some of my ideas about business school, and I thought it might be interesting to send to some of my friends in the future if they ever consider business school. I haven't discussed EMT at Stern specifically,

3、because although that is my planned major, I won't start until September so I can't tell you much yet. I did, however, just finish the whole application process, so I am very familiar with that and have described my experience in detail below. So apologies about the length and lack of specif

I know you probably hear this all the time, but the most important thing for your application is that you follow your int

6、 as a person.文檔來(lái)自于網(wǎng)絡(luò)搜索 One of the big differences between Business School and other graduate schools is that they aren't necessarily looking only at academic achievement. B-Schools want to pick a class of well-rounded, experienced people from diverse and interesting backgrounds. This makes for a

7、 much more equitable (or sometimes much more "random") selection process. Unlike Law School, where a certain GPA and LSAT score can almost guarantee admittance, with B-School, you often find people with lower grades or lower scores but really strong experience are admitted to top programs.

8、 It can be very difficult to predict or control where you stand in the admissions process.文檔收集自網(wǎng)絡(luò)，僅用于個(gè)人學(xué)習(xí) With that general material out of the way: Business School applications are all about "telling your story." The schools want to see that you have a clear, organized plan for your life,

9、 and that you have a very specific idea about how business school fits into this plan and why. Of course, very very few people are lucky enough in their early or mid-twenties to have anything remotely resembling an organized life plan. Therefore, business schools become all about the "story:&qu

If you are interested in Media and Entertainment, sit down and try to work out how going to business school would help you advance in that field. It's important to remember that B-Schools see themselves as a means to an end, not an end in th

14、emselves. They want students who are ambitious and plan to use business school to get them ahead in their chosen fields. They DO NOT want students who are applying to business school because they want the credential on their record, or because they don't know what they want to do and need more t

21、. I would also strongly strongly advise trying to find a job in your field for at least 2 years after college before considering school. For many people, Business School IS NOT an intelligent choice. If you already have a great job at a company you like, with opportunity for upward mobility, why spe

I think business school is best for those who are interested in changing careers, or who have reached a ceiling in their upward momentum and need business school to help them take that next step.

27、usiness schools considers the following: your transcript, your GMATs or GREs, your essays and your recommendations. Transcript: pretty simple here, get good grades! But also remember that grades aren't quite as important to B-School as other grad schools. The average GPA is usually somewhere aro

28、und 3.5. GMATs/GREs: Personally, I took the GMATs, but GREs are an option too. My understanding is that the GMATs' math section is a little harder, while the GREs' verbal section is a little harder. Take whichever you feel most comfortable with but make sure you study hard and do well, as th

29、is is by far the easiest part of the application. Essays: And this is the hardest part of the application. I applied to five schools and had to write somewhere around 40 essays by the end of the process. These will take endless drafts and revisions. Since you are thinking so many years ahead, my adv

30、ice would be to start practicing now. Not seriously, yet, but take a moment every once in a while to jot down essay ideas. Try to remember the important moments in your life, what you felt and how they changed you. What is especially meaningful to you and why? The more you practice, the better a wri

The more people who read your work, the better it will be.資料個(gè)人收集整理，勿做商業(yè)用途 Recommendations: B-schools discourage applicants from using academic references, although this must not apply for undergrads. Nevertheless,

33、 consider looking for a mentor at a summer job or internship who might help advise your career and eventually write you a recommendation. The schools want to see who you are as a person, as a worker and as a colleague, not just as a student. About applying and the process: Start early, in January or

34、 February before the year you want to apply. Take the GMATs and get them out of the way, giving yourself time to retake them if necessary. If you are really well prepared, you could take both the GMAT and the GRE, and send only your best score, that way avoiding having to send two scores if you mess

35、 up the first time. Start researching schools and get an idea about what makes them different. Although B-schools all claim to be unique, I found them to be quite similar in terms of on campus offerings. One big difference, however, can be what sort of access they give you off campus. Make sure each

You sit and wait for interview invitations. An invitation to interview is a very good sign, it means the school likes yo

To prepare for these, keep working on your story. Why Business School? Why Now? Why at School X? Call on your research into the subtle differences b

41、etween each program, and your experiences with students from those schools and during visits. You usually have the opportunity to attend a class or two on the day of your interview, so if you schedule your interview for the late afternoon, it will give you a chance to look around campus and have a v

The waiting process can be long, and you may be rejected from schools you were confident about or accepted to schools you never dreamed would take you. Try not to think about it too much and try

43、 not to compare yourself to others. In the end, it is your unique strengths that will get you into school, not your similarities to the rest of the class. Just because someone has a low GMAT score doesn't mean they don't have a high GPA, amazing extracurriculars, or are just a fantastic and

44、charismatic storyteller. It's impossible to know the details of everyone's application, so don't try.

45、ng said, it's impossible not to be curious and I did find a few useful websites where applicants posted their experiences in interviews, including the questions they were asked, which can help you prepare. In conclusion: 1) Be true to yourself, figure out what you're interested in, good at,

46、and passionate about and pursue those things aggressively. This more than anything will make you a strong candidate. 2) Begin trying to explain how B-School fits into your career plan. Do you need B-School to succeed? Why? Why would School X help you more than School Y? Play the Devil's advocate

47、, force yourself to come up with strong answers to these questions. 3) Prepare and apply early. The more time you give yourself, the better your application will be. 4) Don't let worrying about Business School make you forget to enjoy college. Enjoy your undergraduate experience and try to focus

48、 on getting the most out of that for now. Happy people with fun stories make good classmates. Hope these thoughts help. Best of luck with the next two years and good luck if you decide to apply to school. I'll just be graduating then, but if you have further questions, you know where to find me.

49、 Yours, Andrew 我已經(jīng)過(guò)去了紐約大學(xué)，給你寫(xiě)了這封很長(zhǎng)很長(zhǎng)的電子郵件。它幫助我澄清我對(duì)商學(xué)院的一些想法，我想這有可能幫助到我的那些未來(lái)考慮申請(qǐng)商學(xué)院的朋友。 我現(xiàn)在無(wú)法具體的討論EMT專業(yè)，因?yàn)橹钡骄旁挛也砰_(kāi)始正式上課。但是，我剛剛完成了整個(gè)申請(qǐng)過(guò)程，我對(duì)此非常熟悉，下面詳細(xì)地描述了我的經(jīng)驗(yàn)。 序言： 你有一個(gè)很長(zhǎng)很長(zhǎng)的準(zhǔn)備時(shí)間，所以我的第一條建議是不要想太多太遙遠(yuǎn)的事情。我知道你也許經(jīng)常聽(tīng)到這句話 ，你的申請(qǐng)首先應(yīng)該基于你的興趣 ，學(xué)習(xí)你感興趣的專業(yè)，做你擅長(zhǎng)的事情 ，才能做得很好。這也意味著要確保你是完善充實(shí)的，你需要時(shí)間來(lái)追求的愛(ài)好和課外活動(dòng)，并且你需要記得你要不斷地向外探

50、索，冒險(xiǎn)。這將讓你成長(zhǎng)為一個(gè)人。 商學(xué)院和其他研究生院的最大區(qū)別之一是，他們不一定看學(xué)術(shù)成果。商學(xué)院要挑選一些完善充實(shí)的，來(lái)自不同背景的、擁有有趣的經(jīng)驗(yàn)的人。這使得整個(gè)申請(qǐng)更為公平或者有時(shí)更“隨機(jī)。 不像法學(xué)院，在那里一份漂亮的成績(jī)單，一個(gè)高的Lsat成績(jī)一定能保證你的錄取，在商學(xué)院， 你常常會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)分?jǐn)?shù)較低 ，但是有豐富經(jīng)驗(yàn)的學(xué)生，他們也能被頂尖商學(xué)院的錄取。所以，在申請(qǐng)過(guò)程中，預(yù)測(cè)你的處境是非常困難的。 根本材料： 商學(xué)院的申請(qǐng)，重點(diǎn)在于 “講述你的故事。學(xué)校希望看到你是一個(gè)對(duì)未來(lái)事業(yè)有明確方案的人，他們渴望了解你為什么要申請(qǐng)商學(xué)院，商學(xué)院如何成就你的未來(lái)事業(yè)。 當(dāng)然，極少數(shù)人，能夠很幸運(yùn)的

51、20歲出頭，就能將自己的人生事業(yè)規(guī)劃完整。 因此，商學(xué)院是一個(gè)你能夠重塑自我的地方。 請(qǐng)確保你有數(shù)學(xué)，經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)或統(tǒng)計(jì)學(xué)課程背景，你的成績(jī)單應(yīng)該足以證明你有良好的數(shù)學(xué)運(yùn)用能力，不會(huì)讓數(shù)學(xué)成為你今后在商學(xué)院的絆腳石。 商學(xué)院對(duì)數(shù)學(xué)的要求很根本，所以，如果你是經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)專業(yè)，相信數(shù)學(xué)對(duì)你來(lái)講不是問(wèn)題。在此之后，你應(yīng)該嘗試證明，你對(duì)經(jīng)濟(jì)或者商業(yè)的興趣。 重要的是要記住，商學(xué)院將自身定位成達(dá)成目的的手段，而不是目的本身。他們希望錄取那些雄心勃勃、方案利用商學(xué)院為自己的事業(yè)推波助瀾的學(xué)生。 他們不希望學(xué)生申請(qǐng)商學(xué)院，只是因?yàn)樗麄兛粗忻５囊患埼膽{，他們也不會(huì)錄取那些對(duì)自己的人生毫無(wú)規(guī)劃，希望通過(guò)商學(xué)院的這兩年來(lái)

53、每一個(gè)申請(qǐng)的作文題目，根本都是關(guān)于領(lǐng)導(dǎo)力和個(gè)人經(jīng)驗(yàn)的。你的答案越不普通，越具有多元性，就越好。作為一個(gè)本科生， 由于大局部本科課程都是相似的，因此答復(fù)這樣的問(wèn)題會(huì)讓你很頭疼，比起那些有成堆經(jīng)驗(yàn)的已經(jīng)工作的人，你的答案更加不容易出彩。你的答案也很可能是令人難以信服的，因?yàn)樯踔猎谀汩_(kāi)始你的職業(yè)生涯之前，你就要大談特談職業(yè)開(kāi)展。 我強(qiáng)烈建議你在一家你感興趣的公司或者非政府組織實(shí)習(xí)， 我也強(qiáng)烈強(qiáng)烈建議你在你感興趣的領(lǐng)域工作至少兩年再考慮申請(qǐng)商學(xué)院。 對(duì)于很多人來(lái)說(shuō)，商學(xué)院是不是一個(gè)明智的選擇。如果你已經(jīng)有一個(gè)公司，你還想往上級(jí)流動(dòng)，為什么你要選擇花費(fèi)20萬(wàn)美元，而商學(xué)院畢業(yè)以后，你很可能在你原有的行業(yè)

54、內(nèi)僅僅只有小步提升。 我認(rèn)為商學(xué)院尤其適合那些有興趣轉(zhuǎn)行，或者已經(jīng)到達(dá)了事業(yè)的瓶頸，需要重回課堂來(lái)為他們充電的人。 我覺(jué)得美國(guó)的情況略有中國(guó)，在中國(guó)研究生教育越來(lái)越普及，成了就業(yè)的根本門(mén)檻，但在美國(guó)，在花費(fèi)一大筆學(xué)費(fèi)進(jìn)入商學(xué)院之前，先拼搏一番看你有沒(méi)有可能成功是很值得并且很必要的。 大學(xué)畢業(yè)后的數(shù)年也將讓你有時(shí)機(jī)成為一個(gè)更完善的人，去你一直想去的地方旅游， 看你一直渴望看的東西，冒險(xiǎn)一下也無(wú)妨，盡管失敗會(huì)把你的生活推向一個(gè)較為艱難的境地，但是你還年輕，你的年齡給了你選擇激情的權(quán)利。你可以啟動(dòng)一個(gè)公司，寫(xiě)了一本書(shū)，搬到秘魯，俄羅斯，南非 - 即使你失敗了，你將展示各學(xué)校，你有一種激情，一種對(duì)獨(dú)立的追求，你雄心勃勃。如果你成功了，你好到了你真正能投入進(jìn)去的事業(yè)，也許你已經(jīng)不再需要商學(xué)院為你推波
