Education is an efficient tool that exists not only in educational sector but also in corporate sectors as well. Universities, Schools & corporations hire teacher to educate their students or employees. High authorities or management work with teachers and his/her proficiency to decide the compensations. The prompt states that a teacher's salary should be solely contingent upon their students academic performance. In my opinion, I disagree with the statement because there is a little relationship between the students performance with teacher's calibre, though, there are many other factors(discussed in below paragraphs) which can help in deciding the teacher's calibre and compensation. To begin, the relationship between a teacher and a student is like 2 tyres of a cycle. It should not only be the teacher's responsibility to involve best practices for imparting maximum knowledge to students, but students should also be willing to travel along the ride and should have the ardency to gain as much knowledge as possible. If either of these tyres rupture, the cycle can't move. To illustrate, consider a "Data structures & Algorithms" professor in a university, who works assiduously, conducting the timely classes, providing notes, assignments, arranging practicals, taking tutorials and doubt sessions for the students through the semester, but if the students of his class are apathetic to teachers effort and take little to no use of the provisions, they will end up scoring bad in semester exams. Even if the teacher has been up to the mark, It is the students unattentiveness and laxity in academics responsible for the bad academic performance. In such a case, the student's academic performance doesn't qualify as the accurate metrics for the teacher's calibre and salary at all. The view that students academic performance shouldn't decide the teacher's calibre doesn't mean that students don't play any role in judging the teacher's calibre or compensation, rather students can play a major role here. For a teacher to successful at his/her role, the teacher should be affable and approachable. Students shouldn't feel formidable about their lack of knowledge or silly doubts, while approaching the teacher. Rather, teacher should maintain a healthy environment by encouraging students to ask even the most frivolous doubts. Universities or schools can make use of efficient contemporary tool i.e Feedback System. Students should be presented with a feedback forms quarterly(or at any other intervals) to rate the teacher based on different parameters like affability, knowledge of the topic, expressability, punctuality etc. Universities can make maximum use of such metrics while judging the teacher's performance and deciding compensation. Such a system would not only help authorities to judge the teachers but it would also provide an opportunity for the teacher to improve at their weaker aspects. There are numerous other metrics that can be utilized while deciding the teacher's compensation. At the time of hiring, university/school authorities or higher management conduct the interviews to judge the applicants knowledge and decide their compensation accordingly. As knowledge isn't static, it might be the case that a teacher had less knowledge at the time of hiring but with time the teacher had worked and improved which deserves a better compensation. In such cases, universities or schools can conduct the timely tests to judge their performance and base the compensation of teacher on that. High authorities and management can also make use of evidences like citation, publications, books written by a teacher while deciding upon the teacher's salary. Evidently, a teacher with more renowned publication or citation deserves better acknowledgement and compensation than rest. In essence, from the above mentioned views, it seems correct to say that student's academic performance shouldn't be the metrics to judge the teacher's calibre and decide the compensations. Instead, there are many other tools like citation, publications, feedback systems which ease out the job in deciding the compensation for the teachers.

Test Scores (GMAT/GRE): 168Q 168V 5.5 AWA Undergrad GPA: 2.11 - Bachelor of Science (Applied Math) from #1 ranked university in Australia My undergraduate degree was marked by significant personal and mental health challenges (which are now behind me). I intend to detail this in a separate Statement of Impact, potentially including a letter from my treating clinical psychologist if this will help. I am hoping that clemency will be afforded to my undergrad performance based on these facts. Graduate GPA: 4.0 - Master of Business Administration from #1 ranked business school in Australia 4.0 - Master of Marketing from #1 ranked business school in Australia Awards: Dean's List (top 10% of class) for MBA/Master of Marketing Received Dean's Commendation Awards for the subjects 'Business Strategy', 'Consumer Behavior', 'Managerial Judgement', and 'Marketing Research' for all-round excellence, both in terms of academic achievement and classroom participation. Research Experience: Currently writing a business case study on a medical device start-up, under the supervision of a tenured Professor who holds a PhD from MIT. Hoping to publish this with Ivey Case Publishing. On completion of the case, this Professor & I intend to complete a research piece and publish a paper on qualitative predictors of medical device start-up success. Teaching Experience: TA for 'Data Analysis' for 4 terms (and ongoing), maintaining an average student satisfaction rating of 9.47/10. Additionally, I will be taking on a TA position for 'Managerial Economics' in 2021. Work Experience: 'Head of Marketing Research' at a relatively small coworking space start up (~30 employees, but raised over $20m in funding). Additionally, have my own marketing research consulting business. Other comments: Not sure if it's worth noting, but I am a dual US-Australian citizen. So whilst I have completed my studies in Australia, I am unclear on whether I apply as a domestic or International student. Concentration Applying to: Strategic Management Number of programs planned to apply to: 20 Dream Schools: Top 20 US + INSEAD, Oxford, Cambridge. Other Questions: Questions or concerns you have about your profile? Obviously my undergraduate performance is quite abysmal - I had several failing grades, as low as 5 and 17 (although, these were because I disengaged from the class and did not even sit the final exam). I am hoping my subsequent performance and Statement of Impact will clearly demonstrate that this is not an accurate reflection of my abilities, and was instead due to significant mental health challenges at the time. However, the question remains: how much clemency might I expect from Top 20 schools with regards to my undergraduate performance? Do I have a reasonable shot at some of my target schools (top 20 US + INSEAD, Oxford, Cambridge) or will my application likely be summarily dismissed? Is there anything else I can do between now and end of next year to strengthen my application? Assume I have a strong Statement of Purpose and Letters of Recommendation.
