We are a group of 4 students from the University of Edinburgh, UK, who are interested in commodity future trading. We are currently doing MSc in Operational Research and taking financial risk management course.
The reason why we contact you is that we just post an article on Quant Interview and Andy Nguyen recommend us to contact you. Regarding the course assignment, we need to find a risk manager for interview.
Hello Andy, I have a question as to whether A Paul Wilmott’s Certificate in Quantitative Finance will be of any help to me to get selected in a good college fr an Msc in Fin Engg ?? Is it worth it or should I just go directly for an Msc ??
Hi Andy, I am from VN, know about you and the quantnet forum from vietphd, Would you please take some times answer the question I asked in the "conversation" ?

Thank you very much.
Hi Andy. I have a question about the C++ course. Im a junior student in US and taking a C++ class right now, and I know how important a great grade in c++ is especially for application of MFE. But my professor is strict and based on his history, he only offer B level. So need I drop his class and take the C++ online certification in Baruch?

Our course is even stricter. We do not provide grade, just a certificate if you complete it with 70% average or more.

Thank you Andy! From your perspective, which one is better? Taking the c++ class at shcool and get a fair grade or spending summer on the online class?

LSE asks for GMAT..Your shot @ Warwick depends upon Grades and essays.

I think something like this has happened before to someone from NY area. Their ISP has some problem with certain websites (IP). This most likely is the case since it seems you have problem connecting via your wifi/modem at home.

Hi Andy. Thought I should just update you. I wasnt able to connect to the website from my home comp again so I simply switched off and turned the modem back on. And now its working :)
Hi Andy,

I was wondering whether you knew if Baruch would consider offering more rounds of the pre-MFE courses, perhaps in the latter half of 2012? Due to time constraints I wouldn't be able to make it at those times, and I'm sure many more people would be interested in taking the courses than the ppl who managed to register by Jan 15.
Thanks Andy for the tracker.
If you have time, you could put one's programs on his or her profile, so others could see his status (Admit, Reject,etc) and his preferences (the program he chose) when view his profile.
That would be another big help.
Thanks again.

hi! Thanks again. Pls share if you get any information. I am confused whether to apply or not
I believe that it will give a broader view and will better help future candidates to choose their appropriate programs based on their qualifications. You know, some more SQL fields and queries in the database.
Thanks.
Hi Andy,
Is it possible to modify the Tracker so that it shows who applied which programs and get admission from which + some specific fields for one's credentials (GRE,GPA,WORK,TOEFL,GRANTS,etc). Also, the possibility to select or sort results base on the date of submission (an advanced query).

That's something I would like to provide in the future. Right now, majority of people do not provide enough key stats to make it useful. I'll think of how best to implement this.
