GRE: 1270 (770, 500), TOEFL: 108, GPA: 6.52/10 (3.3/4), Work Exp: 2 years by this June with a Financial Services Company in India. Math grades aren't so great but work exp is relevant. Could you kindly let me know my chances of being accepted at MS OR Columbia?

Andy, could you kindly give a pre-eval?

Andy, I have a quick question
I was hoping to enhance my c++ abilities prior to enrollment at Uchicago this fall. I plan to start the C++ course that Baruch offers after I take the CFA Lv1 test in June. Will I be able to start the course right away maybe on the 10th of June. Will it be just like I pay tuition on maybe June 5th and then boom I get to start on the 10th? Hope to hear from you soon

Andy,
I got accepted into Columbia's MFE but I am still waiting on MIT to release decisions. I gotta secure my place by March 5 and MIT is going to release decisions by March 14th and refused to give me an early decision. Should I ask Columbia for an extension?

Regards,

Juan Pablo

1.) How much time do you think is needed each week to finish the program on time.

2.) Do you see many main investment firms recognizing this program as a top contender in the future amongst others in C++ certifications?

Andy, I am extremely sorry....... My full time job takes too much time:( .I thought I could make some time but it turned out I can't handle it. Could I apply for refund. So sorry.
Andy Nguyen
Andy Nguyen
Sure. I can refund for you. Would you like to keep it and schedule a couple months later when you have some more time from the job? You can always request full refund then.

Is the 16 weeks starting right now? Should I finished the level 1 and level 2 first and then buy myself a 16 week? I am worried I waste the first two levels time...
Andy Nguyen
Andy Nguyen
Yes, the 16-week start right when you make payment. It should show you a counter of how many days you have left, confirm?
If you don't want to enroll right now but a bit later (maybe in a week), just let me know and I will help.
You should have access to level 1, 2 now and start working on it now.

Hello, Andy. I want to purchase the c++ course. And I think I’ve complete the payment and the bank's system showed the money has been paid. But the website went wrong. Now I am not sure whether I purchase the course successfully. Could you check that for me ? And how can I start the course? Thanks a lot.

Do you think with similar courses will place me in a good position to apply for jobs in financial industry as well?
Or Do you think I should take couple of courses like Quantitative Risk Management , Implied Volitility SMile ? instead of Analysis of Algorithms and Intro to Databases.

Thanks
