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

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

Can you share your score background please?
 
Just got the interview invitation email. My interview is scheduled tomorrow and I'm pretty nervous lol
 
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?
 
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.

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!
