2. TOEFL:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
建议大家有时间考个TOEFL吧。
一是练习一下听力,对面试有好处;
二是在录取评估时应该会被考虑;
三是录取后,开学前不会被要求参加 Pre-course,省下的钱和时间可以游览一下祖国大好河山。

3. Essay:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
重要性:
怎么强调都不为过。个人觉得应该有1~2个月的时间思考,写作,修改,提炼…
MBA招生官员据此评估申请人的目标、能力、经验,可信度,还有英文写作技能…
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
注意事项:
1. Uniqueness:
要突出自己的独特背景,经验,知识…
有申请人定位自己的Uniqueness于:“在***行业从事***专业的极少数女性之一”。个人认为“极少数女性之一”对招生官员make little sense。重要的是在MBA学习中能和同学们分享的Uniqueness才有价值。
2. Behavior:
在写leadership, teamwork等essay 时,只泛泛而谈自己的观点和理解是没有什么意义的。应该给出一个例子,简要叙述一下背景,遇到什么挑战,重点描述自己采取了哪些行动,分为几个步骤,得到什么结果(achievements) 。最后在summary 中总结自己学到了哪些skills时,是可以结合一下概念理解的。
3. Optional Essay:
2006年中欧的essay有三篇必写,一篇Optional。申请要点和专业素质应在前三篇中充分展现。
Optional Essay可写可不写,如果想写的话,应该写一些和专业技能无关的有趣经验和个人品质。
例如:
a. 家庭背景,父母的言传身教培养了自己的高贵品质;
b. 爱好旅行,暴走天下竖立了自己坚韧不拔的意志;
c. … …
