Currently there are lots of uncertainties about the future of China-U.S relationship, which impacts young student’s choice after graduating from the college.

In this episode, we interviewed Yue Ao, who is currently working in Singapore. She earned her undergraduate from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and graduate from finance engineer in Carnegie Mellon University

Here are some summaries:

1.Analyze your own passion, prepare early and focus. For example, if you decide to go to graduate school you should try your best to do research, ideally with a professor who does leading edge work

2.Having a back-up plan is as important as preparing the ideal path. You never know what works out at the end

3.Communication and articulation are the trainings that most Chinese students lack of

4.Moving around gives you excitement and opportunity, but also is sad to leave old friends

5.Working hard and treating yourself nicely are very important to deal with this crazy world
