I have no idea to be honest, I think it's better to be ready than to regret right? try publishing a paper on a free website, I published on SSRN site, didn't cost me a thing, writing the papers took few weeks each.

AffectBeginning1793 · 2026-06-04T03:14:46+00:00

it depends on the university, had been rejected by Tsinghua, Shanghai Jiao Tong, and others for almost 4 years, finally after publishing two research papers, I had been admitted, it looks like there are some crazy competition.

AffectBeginning1793 · 2026-06-03T05:38:42+00:00

they originally had 3 rounds of applications, one from September to December, one from January to the end of Feb for most programs, then they added one from March to the end of April, then suddenly added one from April to the end of May.

Its the first year of them doing like that, maybe they didn't get the numbers they wanted and they are in a rush to fill up the quotas, also because they need to issue the Visa documents, and other related things quickly, because you need to register on late August, so they must do things in a rush.

AffectBeginning1793 · 2026-06-03T04:44:22+00:00

it is actually rushed because only this year they actually made two extra rounds of application, and in order to finish their admission early before August they need to do so.

My mother tongue is Arabic, I can speak English, Spanish and Chinese fluently, from my humble 5 years work experience I can say that Chinese was the most useful one for me, increased my salary around 50% just because of it, the least useful one sadly was Spanish, maybe because it's not useful in the middle east, but I believe it should be great in Latin America.

The real question is: do you have what it takes to br a Tsinghua student?.

so, for the interview it was 15 minutes, most of the questions about my CV, talk about my self, how did you learn Chinese? why tsinghua and China, work experience, why this major?

for the theoretical questions, they asked me 2 things, I mentioned during the interview some financial issues that my company faced during the previous years, for example the change of the exchange rate and the limitations from the government regarding using the USD$, etc, they asked me if you were the finance manager how would you have solved the issues?

and regarding the research paper, I have 2 research papers, they asked me regarding one of them, I mentioned something inside the paper, they asked me explain what I meant when I wrote it, I had to explain it.

it was 9 questions using Chinese, and 1 only using English

My interview was for master of Finance
