Princeton MFin Princeton MFin Admission Discussion

[Hongchi Zhang]

I applied to Princeton but didn't get in. However, a girl with a very similar profile was admitted. Economics major from a Russian university, straight from the undergrad program, no FT WE, solid technical skills.

Are you applying again this year? Do you mind sharing your profile?

Hey Ivan, I just checked out the HSE's Econ curriculum. I just wonder, what did you mean by solid technicals? Because all I can see there is couple of Math for Econ, Stochastics, and VBA/SPSS/STATA. Could you elaborate, please?

FT WE - full time work experience

Hi @zeez ,

I have put some details in the attached file. Also, we had more advanced courses in Econometrics, Time Series Analysis and Quantitative Finance during our last year in college. We did not have much exposure to programming though.

@Hongchi Zhang ,

No, I am not applying again. I am about to graduate from CMU MSCF=)

I guess there is still some chance that we will hear from them next week. But I am not holding my breath. Will post a update if I hear anything.
