My Dream

1 . These two questions for 300 words (together ) Each one has one paragraph

a . Tell us what you 'd like to major in at Cornell . How has academic or work experience influenced your decision

b . How would transferring to Cornell further your academic interests

Always attracted to the world of business , I have gained experience in the field that led me to the conclusion I need to major in this area . In Korea , I established a private asset management company with seven other colleagues . Managing private assets and keeping
