1. Select GGU
With the high school between applying for undergraduate experience, and surf in the US imperialism the British Empire three years of experience. For graduate students apply for as long as I have always felt that followed the undergraduate experience, it should be just a little bit. However, when junior summer tiptoes, a sense of crisis once and for all in my heart. When I saw the brim summer internship shot, twice already reported good GRE, as well as senior perilous course, the mood is already at rock bottom. I happened to play in Beijing, when my mother suggested that I find an intermediary, so I smoked a day, running in the major intermediary in the northwest of the City of Victoria.
In Beijing's scorching July day a runaway. After searching, still I feel most committed, GGU. Although not some intermediary magnificent facade, the front desk did not blow the hype, only cordial reception gentle big sister, there are countless hard-working brothers and sisters, and it would be such a different atmosphere to attract. Coupled with the famous Mr. Gong and talk after the meeting, they did not hesitate to choose the GGU. (Later proved my choice is right ......)
2, preparation
While talking, junior college graduate ready to apply for a graduate student. But because of his junior year waves, time suddenly tense. So the first thing and teachers to talk about is the time for planning. GGU Mentor teacher soon to help me prioritize, and pointed out my weak point, it should immediately tell me what to do, what you can and then slowly. In his analysis, I first want to clear the GRE test out. And then strive to improve practice thing.
After another thing is the election of school friends. Although they came up with the direction to go both financial engineering and economic applications. But when I try myself to carefully understand each specific project, it became an instant loss. Just Columbia Business School, there is a school of Arts and Sciences, College of Engineering, College of numerous re-education colleges, each college as well as a long list of projects. Of course, when I speak their hobbies, personality, strengths and weaknesses, Mentor teacher quickly gave me a list of lists.
3, GRE preparation
A school is the overwhelming variety of paper, deadline and midterm. Fortunately, Coordinator teacher patiently urging patience, I can stick with it, and finally test to take the shot GRE scores in early November. Have to say, I think the GRE is really no shortcuts nor lazy approach. In addition to the genius, the only way is to keep the word back and do the subject. After 10 months of avalanche exam, I decided to Last Stand, reported 24 days after the exam. A minimum of two hours a day out of the word back, OG true problem and have been back in the bag, will have time out to do a section. Finally, fighting day and night, I said goodbye to the GRE in early November, entered the next stage.
4, a comprehensive application
After a busy school choice and GRE, and finally the main event in November to start the application, writing instruments. I think, more and more high scores on standardized tests today, the GPA "inflation" Now, the application is the only one of the few instruments can distinguish himself and the other applicants for the area materials. In the first, I was very confused, although I have a rich variety of experiences, but what an experience worth highlighting, what an experience most unique, an experience which most admissions officers like, I do not know.
But after Mentor teacher for voice and speech, such doubts would vanish. He passed a few simple little question, put my activities, a clear division into several modules. After again by each activity for simple inquiries few words, once elected has the potential to become instruments of activity. (Although a handful few, but gave me a clear framework and direction, I think this is Mentor teacher powerful place it.) Then, according to my teacher's request, to extend every alternative activities / themes to passage, during the second screening. After the final choice of a theme in each of these areas, I put in each section open to expansion, completed the look the very beginning of the instrument. Next, under the general direction of the right premise, but also to the native speaker GGU touches. In just less than a week, the highlight of the instrument application and you're done. Although time is short, but I think is not rush, but there is a coherent atmosphere. Of course, how kind of concrete results, we have to wait two months after the list of successful candidates speak.
5, after the application
As a country with procrastination and apply a program of 17 people, is really special thanks Coordinator teacher trouble over and over again every day urging. I finally before the Spring Festival to pay off all school>. <
In fact, I submitted all day after school, offer Cornell CFEM's already lying in my mailbox it. Really very excited to be able to offer their own satisfaction they received before the Spring Festival, can feel at ease over a Spring Festival. Now, we come to know all like a dream in general. While it has been busy, but there is always that teachers help us. I have never really been a trace of panic or anxiety, although there is little anxiety, there is a slight confusion, but in GGU care, I'm a little bit of continuous improvement and progress.
