I did not even get a reject mail.Did everyone from India who were not invited got a reject mail?

It's on Feb 1st. Another friend of mine also received an invitation.

Hi! Could you let us know what the quantitative assessment was like?

 

[finfuo]

It would be a precious help, indeed! I am really anxious because of that assessment.

What does it consist in? Which maths are tested? (linear and euclidean algebra, probability, stochastic models?)

I got a mail on Friday (15th Feb) saying I was 'rejected'.

Any advice for the quantitative assessment?

Now that the interviews are done, maybe we can benefit from some reflection while we wait for the final decision? I know I would. Turns out the QA wasn't really worth getting worked up about - I definitely overprepared (if that's a thing). Made a few unflattering mistakes on the first two questions though. Nerves, I guess. Hopefully it's not material.

Good luck to everyone!

Agreed, it was simpler than I thought - I did make a silly mistake on q3 but hopefully won’t be a huge deal.

 

[blondxd]

I'm sure it'll be fine. Interviewer said the QA is just one part of the whole - hopefully its weight is not that large.

The next ~ 3 weeks are about to last an eternity.

 

[anujok]

they just started to call. gl everyone

 

[blondxd]

Is this a troll? Decisions are supposed to be released on March 12th

 

[finfuo]

Is that a bad joke? They said they would release decisions March 12th

 

[blondxd]

Lmao tbf although it's in bad taste, if this is indeed a troll, it's low-key hilarious.

 

[SwaggyDM]

got the call as well, i think they did start calling (at least some)

 

[blondxd]

Whereabouts are both of you located?

 

[SwaggyDM]

SoCal

 

[anujok]

SoCal

Which track did you applied to

 

[SwaggyDM]

Which track did you applied to

Corporate Finance, but I am not sure if it matters, because I found out that a lot of current students actually chose not to do a concentration

 

[blondxd]

This doesn't make any sense. Why call now? It's almost midnight (on a Friday) in Europe; early Saturday morning in India and China + they've always kept to the deadline.

 

[ricefarmer]

Got a call, admitted to 12-month program, located in US

 

[tcbm]

Got a call too - 18 month. She told me that they enjoy catching people off guard for some early admits. Was told that we won't get a letter until next week, while they keep rolling out calls. Look out for that 617 area code Good luck everyone!

Edit: I'm in the US, got the call around 4:00 pm local time. I have to imagine they knew that it's midnight in Europe/Asia so that's why you haven't gotten anything
