O***a 发帖数: 8 | 1 现在有两个选择,一是Wachovia 的Private wealth managment Associate或者四大
Auditor. 都不是很好的offer, 前者是直接给两个director打杂,后者...就是小
Auditor.两者起薪和location都没什么差别, bonus both performance-based。
非常犹豫。以前目标不过是做accountant,去四大。不过现在,糊涂了。
不算牛人,没什么斗志(女的),觉得在Bank和一群野心勃勃的人争表现,好像没什么
意思;但是毕竟是finance industry,以后跳也方便些。
去四大,混日子相对轻松,但是以后的$$$断然不会很肥美,pay bill 的时候估计不好
过。以后跳finance,没MBA大概没多大希望。但那种lifestyle确实比较layback...
不过现在大家似乎都倾向跳finance,甚至看不起accounting, 我真的犹豫了...各位觉
得呢?
是随潮流跳进finance的热汤锅,强迫自己打天下,
还是安安心心做个小accountant and have a peaceful l |

some left since it is still relatively rare for this combination?

have to be argumentive/talktive/agressive. Good lawyers are very careful
about what they said, i supposed? plus oral argument is a very small portion

The two principal reasons are:
1. Assuming you want to do patent law, being a scientist, the fact that you
don't have a PhD degree will instantly put you at a disadvantageous position.
2. Law firms are a swim-or-sink environment. Inevitably, you will be under

t*****n 发帖数: 24 | 22 That's really comforting. I scored a little over 160 on my first try on LSAT
(at home, not under a ideal situation also). I feel I have a legitimate
shot at 170 next June. If I spend about 15-20hrs a week on it till June,
would you think that score will be significantly inflated for the aptitude
test purpose? |

forget about it if I score under 165. Any comments on his theory?

e***a 发帖数: 32 | 32 不知道别人怎麽样啊,就说说我自己的情况吧。三四十名的学校,工科背景,英语跟广
大留学生比呢比上不足,比下有余(可能还偏下多一些),性格绝对算内向的,我不觉
得法学院非常难念,一周60小时绝对能很好成绩的读下来(如果你不是像我一样经常一
边看书一边上网的话)。这一两年市场非常好,我们学校的成绩中等偏上的一般都能找
到大所的工作。但是的确bio领域的IP如果没有PHD的话会比较难因为所有的candidates
都是PHD,你说employer会怎麽选。当然你打算做litigation的话学位就不是问题了,
但是litigation对于你的个人情况来说更不太现实。我建议呢就是找IP boutique一般
会让你什莫都做,你进去以后只要能证明你能写专利,学位就不再是什莫大问题了。
我非常同情你太太,希望她早日康复。我觉得你英语不是太差的活(如果第一次LSAT就
能上160,那简直是很好了),法学院一定是能读得下来的,工作也是一定能找到的(
如果市场不再crash一次的话),但是最大的问题时以后的工作。你得问问你太太以后 |

紧张,没想到整个过程非常的layback.我第一个月作elective时,有个attending反映
我的英语有时难懂,没想到我们program马上开会决定帮我出钱找人纠正口音。今天PD
跟我谈话时还特意说,你不要太担心,语言是要慢慢的提高的,你做的很出色了。几个
ward 轮转attending对我的评价也都很好。特别是第一个CCU attending他对我非常地
严厉,但他的评语确实最好的,正因为他的严厉,让我学会很多东西.还有就是我的
senior resident对我的评价近乎满分,PD 说看来大家都很愿意和你合作。学生对我的
评价也都不错。我觉得自己的努力工作还是得到回报了。我们每次on-call的时候,我
都会从家里大些snack过去。来新病人都是主动说让我来接,而不是在那里死等着。过
年的时候还给他们发短信表示祝贺,如果赶上谁的生日,我还会买个蛋糕给他们。总之

此外,对MM下面的观点有点不同意见。我同意MM“spoken english and communication
skill 之类都是平时的积累”之观点,但是对很多人来讲准备答案还是有必要的。我
觉得MM觉得没用到可能有几种情况:1、Spoken English is very good and can think
in English. 2、Know what you want and speak honestly for all questions.3、
Interviewers喜欢你,很layback,主要是聊天,没问到你准备的常见或tough
questions.
否则还是有必要对常见问题准备和练习答案的。反正我residency和fellowship申请都
准备了。对于tough的问题,母语回答都难,不要说英文了。当然你没准备的问题就是
谁来土囤了。另外,你准备的问题大多不会被问到,即使问到了,也不是让大家照着背

写到这里,可能有人觉得我是一个对孩子非常负责有耐心的家长,不是的!在教孩子学
琴时我走入了很多误区,我尽量诚实的写下我的感受,希望能对大家有帮助。
首先我必须承认,我就是一个推妈,而且是非常典型的那种。我自己从小就非常非常想
学钢琴而不能,就对学钢琴有一种难以表达的情节,所以当我儿子表现出不喜欢练琴时
,我就不由自主的觉得特别伤心难过,我情不自禁地就会想起小时候我是多么渴望学琴
却没有条件,现在他条件这么好还不珍惜,我就会特别生气,进而表现为对儿子的呵斥
和责骂。还有就是我自己是个典型的完美主义者,对各种事情要求都比较高,... 阅读全帖 |

E*********e 发帖数: 10297 | 44 受打击了
起因是他们年级新来了一个中国同学,是完全从中国刚过来的那种。作为屈一个手值头
就可以数到的中国学生,闺女就被派了要积极帮助新同学(翻译)的任务。
起初她很开心。我也告诉过她,她自己有过转学经验,新同学这时后要尽量帮助一下。
据说recess time都是跟这个小男孩在一起。
昨晚突然跟我说,我不高兴再跟他在一起了。
我说为什么呢。
她说,新同学说他自己很厉害,都跳级到他姐姐的年级(grade 5)了。他才不跟我一样
,学这么简单的中文!
碰巧我还说过,中国来的孩子很厉害。
小小自尊心被伤害了。
我先小心问了一下,他说的是他现在去上他姐姐的年级么?数学?
然后又问,不是吹牛?(我还问,你知道吹牛什么意思么?)
最后安慰她说,你学中文还好了,不玩就不玩吧。
我没想到这么layback,sloppy的闺女还有自尊心。 |
