UCLA MFE UCLA MFE Admission Discussion

[troybarnes]

I haven't received any information about any interview yet, you?

 

[RahulRaj]

I have heard ppl getting interview invites in early June for R3. But haven't received any communication after that. It must be tedious to decide given the huge volume of applications. Let us wait as the decision would be posted latest by end of this month. Good luck to us all

wait, you know people that have already received interviews? or are you talking about previous semesters?

 

[RahulRaj]

I am talking of this term applications. It may be that the adcom is busy taking decisions on the huge applications given this was the third round. Is it possible that they might be deciding without interviews? Any idea on the offers' count as of now ?

 

[troybarnes]

If current term interviews have gone out, then RIP me. I didn't have great GRE scores which means I'm out probably

 

[RahulRaj]

I don't think GRE is the only criteria, overall application should be a holistic one and one that demonstrates ability to learn

 

[RahulRaj]

Any update any one, on the number of offers made till date for UCLA entry 2018? Any ball park figure on the number of seats available in the round 3? Any update on the results for round 3 folks

 

[RahulRaj]

Is there a different thread for this ?

 

[troybarnes]

No idea, and no updates on my end.

 

[RahulRaj]

Yeah even the tracker is not fully updated, I think !!

 

[RahulRaj]

@All who have offers, please update the tracker. I know its easy to forget in the moment of joy after securing an offer but for other who are trying to gauge their chances, your tiny effort may mean a lot to them

Cheers
Rahul

I am done with it. The interview is not just behavioral. There will be questions on probability, linear algebra and differential equations, stats.

Congrats, I hope you did well. Can you give more specifications about the process was it online or in person ? how much time for the interview and for the quant assessment ?
