I have an interview tomorrow. Does anyone know what are the intentions of these selective interviews?

Can you share your score background please?

 

[Changyu]

Hey I just got an interview this morning and the interviewer is Mr. Becker. I am wondering if anyone share the same interviewer with me.

Can you share your score background please?

 

[Changyu]

I thought it went well, questions were very straightforward with probability (combinatorics mostly) some programming and some calculus. No need to really review extensively although you may want to brush up if you've haven't used these concepts recently. Good luck to everyone!

Can you share your score background please?

 

[Changyu]

How was your interview? I just got an invite for tomorrow.

Can you share your score background please?

 

[Changyu]

They set a time for me, so I could not be able to see how many slots are left.

Can you share your score background please?

Hi guys, I have a silly query regarding application. Upon submitting my application, it says that my essays are missing but that is obviously not the case. What could be the reason for this? I remember having copy-pasted my essays on the portal from a separate word file. Is that the reason? Did any of you also get a similar error?

 

[TheSquashGuy]

Wrote the entire essays again on the portal without copy-pasting from a doc and ensuring I wasn't timed out of the portal. STILL getting that error. Attaching screenshot of the error: Please help guys!

Okay so apparently quantnet is not allowing me to upload the screenshot. The error says:
Section: Essays
Required field/Error: Required Essays are missing

I didn’t have any problems completing the essay part. I think you should write an email to admission team and describe this issue in details with screenshots attached. They will definitely help you resolve this technical issue.

You should contact them directly ... Hardly anyone here is going to be able to help you.

Just email them or call them. I went into similar issues in application for another program and the committee fixed it for me immediately after the phone call.

Hi all,

I'm an applicant considering to apply for the second round. For those of you who get admitted in the first round, do you mind to share what kind of pre-request courses have you finished? I will really appreciate your feedback about your background!

 

[Zeroxieeee]

Anyone knows what that means?

 

[Changyu]

I guess that means waitlist. You can call them to ask for detail. If you don't mind, can you share your background? Thanks a lot!

You have a really great background. I guess you are likely to be admitted. Good luck!

Hey I am in a similar position, application status is held pending interview.

I will be contacting the uni directly, but any idea what this means?

Thanks for your help
