Features: This series of self-study teaching materials is meticulously compiled for candidates preparing for the 2005 MBA unified examination. It is a completely revised version based on a comprehensive summary of the previous four editions, tailored to meet the requirements of the new syllabus.
To create more opportunities for experienced professionals or outstanding talents with management potential, the National MBA Advisory Committee decided in 2003 to reform the previous unified examination scheme. Specifically, the comprehensive ability test replaced the individual exams in mathematics, Chinese, and logic, further strengthening the weight of the interview in the admission process. The results of this reform have shown certain effectiveness. However, given that the MBA unified examination remains an selective test, and considering the realities of China, such reforms can only be gradual. While the characteristics of the MBA training model suggest that admission should adopt more subjective and flexible methods, focusing more on candidates' management backgrounds, achievements, and qualifications, the current situation in China requires adherence to the principles of fairness, impartiality, and openness. The Ministry of Education stipulates that the score required to qualify for the (second round of examinations) is determined by the performance in the unified examination and the total number of students planned for enrollment each year. Therefore, the written exam results for the MBA entrance examination will continue to play a significant role in admissions for a considerable period, especially for candidates with extensive work experience. This is the broader context behind Fudan University Press's annual publication of such review materials.
Over the past five years, in its effort to produce high-quality books, Fudan University Press has adhered to the following principles in organizing the compilation of the MBA Unified Examination 3000 Points Miracle series:
1. Collaboration Among Tsinghua, Fudan, and Peking Universities: Optimizing the Combination of Northern and Southern Strengths
Since most MBA candidates have been working for many years and many are studying while employed, it is difficult for them to dedicate sufficient time to specialized preparation. Therefore, Fudan University Press began in 1999 to meticulously organize experienced teachers to compile a series of targeted and self-study-friendly review books. After rigorous market testing, the MBA Unified Examination 3000 Points Miracle series has gained the deep appreciation of candidates and has remained consistently best-selling, now establishing itself as a leading brand in MBA exam preparation materials. The series has become the preferred choice for MBA candidates due to its long-standing commitment to quality and its distinctive feature of combining the strengths of northern and southern top universities. The management schools of Tsinghua, Peking, and Fudan Universities are among the best business schools in China, and their MBA entrance exams rank among the top nationally. Most of the authors of this series have undergone years of training in MBA exam preparation courses at these prestigious institutions. With a candidate-centered and responsible attitude, the experts have meticulously compiled the materials, which were then carefully reviewed and revised by Fudan University Press before publication. Thus, the series truly embodies the full integration of northern and southern strengths.
2. Leading Professors and Renowned Experts: A Golden Combination of Authors
A high-quality exam preparation textbook must meet three criteria: first, it should focus on serving candidates' preparation needs; second, it should be forward-looking, addressing future exams; and third, it should align with the new syllabus, with difficulty comparable to or slightly higher than the actual exam papers. The authors of this series have been compiled according to these standards, with the primary goal of enabling candidates to master all the content through explanations of fundamental knowledge, answer techniques, practice methods, and concentrated exercises. The authors include both academically accomplished experts and experienced teaching masters with rich practical experience. Many of them have continuously participated in pre-examination tutoring at prestigious institutions such as Peking and Tsinghua Universities, possessing a deep understanding and grasp of the exam syllabus, as well as substantial teaching experience. They hope to share their expertise with more candidates through this series, benefiting all who use it.
3. Closely Aligned with the New Syllabus: Offering a Comprehensive Solution for the MBA Unified Examination
The series remains committed to following the new syllabus each year and is promptly revised based on changes in the syllabus. In terms of format design, the authors of each subject have taken bold innovation, dividing each exam subject into three parts: "Strategy," "In-depth Explanation," and "Practice." In the "Strategy" section, practical study and preparation strategies for achieving high scores in the unified examination are introduced, along with predictions for future exams. The "In-depth Explanation" section focuses on fundamental knowledge and skills, interspersed with analyses of past exam questions. The "Practice" section introduces the concept of "focused practice," discouraging unrealistic "sea of questions" tactics. Instead, based on statistical analysis of past questions and future trends, the authors have carefully designed targeted mock questions that align with the direction of future exams, serving as effective tools for candidates to test their preparation and familiarize themselves with the exam process. The design of exercises in this series emphasizes "moderately challenging," not only to ensure candidates are well-prepared but also to address the significant gap in difficulty between current review materials and actual exam questions.
Given that the series is compiled with the guiding principle of "serving candidates, focusing on in-depth study and practice; full-simulation, moderately challenging," and incorporating the authors' unrestrained sharing of their accumulated review experience from nearly seven years of MBA exam trends and teaching, the series is not limited to serving as teaching materials for pre-examination tutoring classes in various institutions. It is equally suitable as a self-study textbook for all candidates. Through the reading and practice of this series, the authors sincerely hope to provide significant assistance to the candidates.
