what is the answer for the inequality question? i did not work out any solution among the given choices
 
anyone knows the answer to the inequality question? i work out a solution that is not among the choices...

I did (with a questionable assumption or bad math) and, apparently, none of the answers were correct 😅. There goes one I felt good about.

So from the email we all received today/yesterday. What do you think are the two questions with the typos
 
Series question yes, the matrix one matched one of the options. I am not sure which is the second one, all others seemed to have a matching answer.
which one was the series question ?

And you’re saying the typos were neither the stochastic question nor the matrix ? (That’s the two I found hard)..

for stochastic dont think there was any typo i solved it but i was also confused after seeing the options but they just inverted the integral from +ve to - ve
 
Btw will there be equal weightage for each question or it will be based on difficulty of the question? i think after they removed 3 questions probably makes sense to have a weightage based on difficulty to assess the candidate correctly.

Actually, I think the other typo was in the stochastic problem. I remember they put sigma * sqrt(t) in the bracket of ln, but I think it should be out of the bracket of ln? ... although I'm not very sure.

I also dont remeber the options exactly now but when i was solving i found the exact mathing answer.
 
The stochastic is incorrect, yup
The other one is the typo in derivation
 
Has anyone received a decision from Princeton? I had my second round interview almost a month ago and it's driving me crazy
 
Idem, nothing yet. Although the official deadline is March 15th, I think last year decisions came out around the 3rd - so hopefully the suspense is coming to an end sooner than later!
