MIT MFin MIT MFin Admission Discussion

[indianfinanceguy]

Are interview invites sent out in batches or all at the same time for Mumbai location?

Logistically, since this is an in person interview, I think the interviews in Mumbai will not span more than 2-3 days. In that case, they would have sent out invites more or less at the same time to ensure that candidates get sufficient time to plan their travel etc.

I think so too. But last year some received invites few days later. Hopeful until end of this week

I mailed adcom and they said 'We are still reviewing applications'. Although from threads of previous years ,chance of anymore invites for Mumbai is slim.Overall ,looks like a bloodbath for Indian applicants.

What do you mean by bloodbath? Only IITians with a perfect Quant Score and straight As in Quant Courses along with CFA and GS type internship experience can crack the program?

Of the five criterions you mentioned ,I fit in four of them but could not get an invite.So yes,things seem super competitive this year.

So, it looks like I lost the race at the age of 18 only.

Don't know how much this will help (I would probably be inconsolable right now), but I'm moved to say something because I know how this feels and I don't know if you have people close to you that will tell you this. I am also emboldened by my (assumed) anonymity.

Try to look past this. There's definitely an element of randomness in these decisions. In the sense that if you erased the minds of the adcoms and asked them to select again, the outcome would be different. This decision they've taken says nothing about your quality, as an individual and in relation to others, and it has no bearing on what you can (and will) achieve in the future.

You probably already know this, but sometimes it's nice and reassuring to hear it from someone else.
