English-Chinese translation, please help!

One of my friends is applying for a MBA program in US and there is essay requied in the application. The question is:

Please detail the five-year plan for your career including the jobs you would like to have, how you would leverage your education, and how you would otherwise prepare yourself for this path.

Both of us were confused with the sentece"how you would otherwise prepare yourself for this path" and I don't know how to explain to her in Chinese. My understanding is "if you couldn't utilize this opportunity of education (or if your application was declined), what else would you do to prepare for this path?" But I am not quite sure with that.

Anyone has any idea? Thanks in advance.

Please explain any other preparations you are making to advance your career plan in addition to the MBA degree.

除了被本校的MBA Program錄取之外,請說明您如何籌劃未來的職業計劃

I second marcopolo79's interpretation. There are 2 main points to focus on in the essay: education and otherwise.

Cheers,

I agree with Marco and Hashiri. Although the "otherwise" is a little ambiguous, and could mean either "in addition to" of "instead of", the key clue is "how you would leverage your education", which assumes the applicant WILL receive the (MBA) education he or see is seeking.

"Otherwise" should be translated simply as "除此之外" or "除此以外",
