  1. Am I stupid to think about career as a Quant?

    dude, currently 160k doing verification and going for mfe is 95% in the wrong direction.
  2. NYU MSMF 2012 Employment for NYU Math Finance program

    As with all programs, that's the published employment stats, but the real employment stats is another thing. It's complicated. Then need to look at quality of the placements, etc. make it even more complicated. Anyway, it's all marketing craps ..
  3. Seeking Business Partner

    Dude, seriously, your idea is one of the worst. Please don't bring it up to any angel investor. They will be laughing out loud. The best part of the site is the girl. Anything other than that, forget about it.
  4. Tuition

    Did it affect mba tuition too? For mba, in-state residents are less than 50k per year, so the cost of 2 years mba are not much higher than 1 year mfe. Plus if get some scholarship for the mba, the tuition cost would be the same.
  5. Tuition

    Just observed the berkeley tuition for next year class is about 60k, 5k increase from incoming class this year, and I believe current graduating class was 50k. So 5k increase each year for the last two years. Also saw similar increase from ucla this year. Not sure other schools are doing the...
  6. Berkeley Reveals Plan for Academic Center in China

    Hahahaha ... You should keep up to date what's going on in the world .. >>>>> I think Education is the major force behind the innovation, which had kept US ahead of the world. But now with the finest educational institutions going to countries like China we might see a major change where the...
  7. 2011-2012 Quantnet Ranking of Financial Engineering (MFE) Programs

    alex krause is the only sensible baruch person so far. If I am the hiring manager, and I read this thread, I would have a negative impression about baruch and its graduate. Nothing personal, it doesn't mean the students or the program are bad, or the students won't get hired. It just means it's...
  8. 2011-2012 Quantnet Ranking of Financial Engineering (MFE) Programs

    This thread is hilarious. Couldn't stop laughing. People are so green or just naive. I wish there are more people decline MIT/Princeton/Standford to go to a community college. Unfortunately, it's not true in the real world. EMalu is just being a bad ass even though he got valid points. Just...
  9. Some Recruiting Agents Exploit Chinese Students

    >>Some Recruiting Agents Exploit Chinese Students I don't think this is one way. It's rather both ways. It's all about competitive advantage. It's a complicated matter, rather than pure black and white. It does put a lot of people, including myself who don't have fake essay, recommendation...
  10. COMPARE UCLA MFE vs UChicago MSFM

    Good for you finding it out. Surprised that Chicago told you most people are from China.
  11. COMPARE UCLA MFE vs UChicago MSFM

    I'm not going to disclose the details, I don't feel it's my responsibility to disclose that either. hey, my source told me the information can be lying to me too, who knows for sure. But I will say I have 90% confidence. If the candidate is very interested in a program, he/she should find out...
  12. COMPARE UCLA MFE vs UChicago MSFM

    Remember while you can look at the placement reports, you can't trust everything you see there. The UCLA 2010 class was better in terms of placement (more students found job at graduation) than 2009 class, due to the economy/job market. >> better quality of education I think that depends on you...
  13. CMU MSCF New CMU MSCF student profiles page

    Indeed cool, better marketing, better brand.
  14. COMPARE UCLA MFE vs UChicago MSFM

    Tough choice, two very different programs, difficult for comparison, much easier to compare UCLA and berkeley. Also, depends on if you want to stay in CA and Chicago, both should do well in their respected area.
  15. COMPARE UCLA MFE vs. USC MFE vs. CGU MFE

    Are you talking about the regular deposit for commitment to the program or tuition for the semester? I know people who paid deposit but couldn't attend due to personal or family issues. I'm just curious if they had two different standards. > abcdefh - from what I understand they normally don't...
