Can you add his timelines for programs he applied to on our Tracker?

Does anybody know the interview to admit conversion rate for the program?

Or any estimate of the admit rate? Maybe @Andy Nguyen may have some idea?

 

[Melanieyx]

I heard it's 3:1 ratio.

Thank you so much @Andy Nguyen !

MIT seems to have an acceptance rate far worse than Berkeley and CMU - didn't expect that

Has anyone received a call?

Has anyone received a call?

By call, do you mean a literal phone call ? And should we be expecting a phone call? Won't they send a email to notify the decision.

 

[Quantgrad]

As far as I know, they should start making calls on Friday. By the way, last year people got admitted even without receiving it.

So, in your opinion, they won't call earlier than the offical date of friday 8th?

Never say never, but last year they waited for the official date based on the discussions.

 

[WSBquant]

Will all results be out by 8th?

 

[mmm]

I saw the updated. How do you know the results has the portal changed?

 

[pijeniwaiting]

I think they received a call

 

[Quantgrad]

I think they received a call

Yes, I received a call from my interviewer (Urmi).

 

[pijeniwaiting]

Hey, I received a call from my interviewer (Urmi).

Congratulations ! When did you receive the call ?

 

[Quantgrad]

Congratulations ! When did you receive the call ?

Yesterday, around 4:00 PM EST.

Congratulations to those admitted! Would the quant assessment be particularly hard for someone without an engineering background? My major is humanities + econ (hoping to apply for a 2025 start). Thanks!
