For the alternate career, I said public school principal. I'm currently teaching in the inner city and if I didn't go to bschool, I would probably want to remain in education and run a charter school as a principal, so that made sense as the answer for that question.
I thought I had this one done...but i am having 2nd thoughts. A teacher will be a mentor etc...so the skills will be soft skills..interpersonal, communication, leadership etc. Ross q is how will it help solve multi-disciplinary problems which I think are problems in fin+sales+mktg+ops+IT - ie a combination of a multiple of these. So what do soft skills have anything to do with these.
What I mean is you can become a principal and expand the school and say mktg+fin skills were reqd to handle this but how to relate soft skills to multi-disciplinary pbs?
thanks!
I think the "multi-disciplinary" angle they're looking for is "How would being a rock climber (or whatever) ADD to your study of business?" Don't focus on exact translation of skills, think more about how this other possible career would make you MORE well-rounded as a business person... not why you're business skills would be better.

Hey all,
Wanted to seek your opinion on this one....
1) What and/or who influenced your decision to apply to Ross?
Compare it to
2) How will XYZ school help you achieve these goals?
What is the difference in scope, if any between the two questions?
Thanks.

they mean slightly different things to me. for #1 i talked about specific people i met at ross events and what i learned from them. that response wouldn't be covered in #2, though i did have reasons that answered #2 as well.
