Then, take my friend Xiaozhou as an example. You know Xiaozhou, right? He graduated from a famous school, and his family had high hopes for him. He started out really making a mark when he was working at a bank, handling his job with ease.

复旦也是老牌名校啊，哎，据说复旦很早以前的两位老校长都是耶鲁毕业的。

Fudan is also a renowned school. Hey, they say a long time ago two of Fudan's school presidents were Yale graduates.

是的，国内名校的MBA课程不一定比国外差，拥有机会而不去读实在是很可惜的，所以还是劝劝你表哥再好好考虑一下吧。

It is! Top domestic MBA programs are not necessarily any worse than foreign ones. It'd would be a real pity to have an opportunity to go study there but then not take it. So I still say you should encourage your cousin to think it over.

你知道吗？美国麻省理工大学的斯隆管理学院支持中国开办的国际MBA项目，首批合作的大学就只有清华大学和复旦大学。他们都是以全英文授课，模块式教学，吸取了国外MBA教学的精华，办学质量应该还是信得过的。著名的国际咨询公司麦肯锡的员工也大多是从各所名校毕业的MBA人才，所以说MBA就好像是进入企业管理高层的护照也不为过。

You know what? The Sloan School of Management at MIT in America has given China support in opening International MBA Programs. The first batch of partner universities only includes Qinghua University and Fudan. They are all taught completely in English, with modular teaching methods. They've attracted the cream of overseas MBA education. The quality of education should be pretty good. Most employees of McKinsey, the famous international consulting firm, are MBA graduates from top universities. So it's not far off the mark to say that the MBA is a passport to the high levels of corporate management.

的确是。现在各种MBA远程教育，备考辅导，全脱产班、全业余班、还有什么基本业余班都层出不穷，看得人头昏眼花。“挂羊头卖狗肉”的情况也确实存在。不过一些名校的MBA课程还是有口皆碑的，他们和国际知名学校合作并聘请了很多国际名师前来授课，为国际化企业职业经理人提供了学习和交流的平台。有的学校推出的只是一些相关的培训课程，并不是MBA学位，但是仍有很多人前来报名，也说明了并不是所有人都是为了学历。

That's for sure. All kinds of MBA distance education, test prep coaching, work-study programs, basic part-time classes and such are coming out one after another. You get dizzy looking at them all. Then there's also ``bait and switch." But some top schools' MBA programs really do get wide praise. They cooperate with famous international schools and hire renowned international professors to come teach. They give managers from international companies a platform for study and exchange. What some schools have introduced is just related classes, certainly not an MBA degree. But a lot of people still come to sign up, which just goes to show that not everybody is doing it for the education.
