Hi Karl, I am wondering why you didn't get admision?! You have a outstanding background!

some courses from Stanford/Princeton in Model thinking, statistics, probability, etc. to remind myself about it. But the problem is-nobody wants the worker without an experience in finance environment! That does not matter where to apply the math rules – in basic research or financial industry. Math is Math :) What do you think about my chances to become a quant? Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you! Lana

Hi Andy, thanks a lot for updating the programs reviews. However I found that some programs have extremely contradictory comments. I guess experience differ between domestic and international students. So could you please include the status of the reviewer so that we can have an expectation of the possible bias?

Depends on what you are looking for. I personally think Houston is growing more than Chicago. Honestly, sounds like you prefer Chicago and if so, should go to ITT.

its not about me liking Chicago Anthony. I just want to be sure of my decision. Coming to think of it, i think i'll be joining UoH itself. And as far as IB jobs are concerned, I'll just have to work hard and get into a good financial services firm. Currently I'm working for Thomson Reuters but working as a systems engg.

The point is there is no sure decision. If you like and want to work in Chicago, ITT is the choice. If you have zero preference, I think UoH is the better choice. With that said, not everyone wants to work in Houston or likes Texas. If you are miserable and hate where you are you will not network or interview well.

Hi rawger, I noticed that you've completed ur MSF from IIT - Stuart. I was wondering if you could tell me more abt the program and the university. How's the placements there(I heard its really bad and they dont have any career service). At any point did u regret joining IIT? It'll be great if you could help me with this. really need some senior/alumnus to help me out with it. Thanks

Hi,

I,Shubhankit Mohan,has recently admitted into the MQF program at Rutgers and was hoping to get some information from a current student/alumna about the program. I was hoping you could tell me what you liked and disliked about the program, life outside of school in Newark, and the career placement services offered by the program.

I would be greatly appreciate your advice.
