I am curious if WL is a positive or negative sign compared to no feedback.

I am curious if WL is a positive or negative sign compared to no feedback.

I’m assuming slightly positive because it appears that they have also given out direct rejections.

I think it becomes a matter of which candidates are willing to complete the checklist, so conversion is low in the sense that many accept other offers and give up on the checklist.

 

[mr_spectre]

Can you share what you have on the checklist?

Even I have gotten a checklist but I did not get any mail with instructions on how to approach the items in the checklist.

 

[mr_spectre]

I also got a preparation checklist that wasn't there yesterday. But I received no waitlist, and the checklist is completely empty. What does this mean?

I think I am in a similar situation

 

[anonymous_monkey]

Does anyone have a checklist that just says books

3 Pre-program courses
C++
Python
PDEs
Econometrics
Numerical Analysis
Machine Learning
Their required books list

Deadline for all courses to be completed by Oct except the pre-program courses and instructions that they will reach out for updates regularly. Some of these classes I’ve already taken or even have a research paper on so I might ask to take them off the list.

I had a blank prep page in the dropdown without an accompanying email too for about a week, not sure if its correlated with my result though

Even I have some courses that are already there on my transcript or I have already done them. How are you planning to convey this to them? Should an email suffice?

Email was my plan but even if they say no, a quick Coursera certificate on a subject I already know well should be a breeze.

 

[shaooooo]

I have a checklist that says "Books", "Submit Monthly Conditions Updates" and "Take Pre-Programming Course", but still no status update.

 

[bootstrap]

Mine as well

hi maitreya, how was your interview?

 

[WSBquant]

Hi how long from application to interview stage?

Hi how long from application to interview stage?

If you check the tracker, it's different for everybody.

I got waitlisted just now without an interview. My preparation list was updated to include many courses that I have already taken in college. Why would I have to take them again?? Anybody has any idea? I'll probably write them an email.
