Hi, I see you set your destination to NYU-Poly MFE and guess you are attending the program now. Can you give me any feedback about the program so far?? in terms of curriculum, quality, and job prospect? I have been seeing many posts that say negative things about the program... Thanks so much in advance and wish you the best!

Hi, corbin~
I have noticed that you have got admitted to the MMF program in the university of Toronto after two rounds of interviews.
I applied to this program this year and is still waiting for results. Could you introduce something about this program and the
interviews?

I just completed my undergraduate degree in actuarial science. I love mathematics and I would ultimately want to become a portfolio manager for an investment company but I really love mathematics and I hope to apply mathematics a lot to aid in the fund management. I am going to be studying MFE in september. Do you think that financial engineering is the right programme given my ambitions and love for mathematics.
Hi Andy, but do you know anyone in that program whom I can contact? Appreciate it.

Sorry. I don't know any current or past students of the program. I would love to get them to write a review of the program for us.
Hi Andy, what did you say about Stanford coterminal student? Who are they? I am really interested in that program due to personal reasons, and thinking that there might be less competitiveness for jobs since only less than 20 students are admitted every year and many them are looking for PHDs.

They are Stanford undergrad and PhD students from different department taking the same class as FinMath students. I don't know what the career services there do to help you.
I know about the course but the fees are quite high for me at this moment. But is it possible for you to recommend a text book or some reading material for self learning?

Read through the FAQ. There is a list at the bottom with links to online books you can use.
Hello Andy. I am currently awaiting admission and I am somewhat worried about C++. I studied Java in my first year of University but I really did not undertsand it that well and this experience represents my only experience in computer programming. I would like to teach myself C++ programming in a few months. Can you recommend a text book that could adequately prepare me for a top mfe programme.
