眾所皆知,大衛在版上的熱心是有目共睹,我也在GMAT中的RC版獲益良多, 在面臨出國申請學校的繁雜手續及忙不完的ESSAY中,我厚著臉皮向大衛請益,雖然他的課業繁忙,但還是願意跟我分享他的申請經驗.
我自認我自己的學經歷不差,分數也還可以,但在寫ESSAY時總是覺得缺了什麼,在跟大衛聊過之後,我必須說他的觀察力幫助我找到自己所忽略的事項,雖然這些事項對我們來說沒什麼,可是對老外來說可是一個重點,這時才真的了解文化的差異對申請者來說有很大的影響力.

我相信有很多很優秀的申請者也面臨跟我一樣的問題,在沒有找代辦的情況下,一個人申請真的很像瞎子摸象般無助,雖然我很enjoy申請的過程,因為就像站上很多大牛說的,申請的過程是對自己人生到目前為止的檢視,但我也擔心若因此沒上該怎麼辦?因此我建議要自己辦的申請者在申請過程中,一定要找有國外mba經驗的人幫你審視文章,我相信這個過程更可以補足你所缺乏的文化劣勢.
最後趁這機會跟大衛道聲謝,希望我有機會可以請你喝個酒,還你這個人情

[Sharing]After talking to David
MIT applicant
Everybody knows, David is enthusiastic on the website and well-recognized, I also gained a lot from his reading technique for GMAT exam. Facing the miscellaneous application process and ever-lasting essay writing, I asked for David’s help as a stranger. Even though he was busying on his MBA academy, he was still willing to share his application experience.

I was confident of my experience and academy power, and my scores were pretty competitive, but I always felt something missing in my essay package. After talking to David, I have to strongly recognize him that his delicate sense about details helped me figure out the missing part, although it was not a big deal to us, those elements may mean significantly to Westerners. At the mean time, I figured out the cultural intelligence can make great difference on applications.

I believe lots of competitive applicants are facing the same obstacles as I did, without application agencies, it was really helpless in the dark. Although I enjoyed the application process, but just like lots of “celebrity applicants” on the website, the application process is an examination of your life to date. While I was also worried about what if I fail? I suggest self-applicants seeking help from experts who studied MBA themselves to revise your application package, and I believe it’ll greatly help on your cultural intelligence.

Finally, I have to thank David for your great help, and treat you a beer party, I owe you one.
