congratulations... see you guys in June.

 

[Joy Pathak]

Feel free to ask any questions you have about the program. I am sure myself or the current students/alumni would love to answer any queries.

 

[dstefan]

Maybe those questions could be asked on a different thread?

I missed the application deadline of April 1. Work is killing me, now can only wait for December 2011 for it to open.

hey guys. I learned I got accepted this morning ](around 8ish in Baruch MFE program by the program Director). gosh, the entire interview was really stressful. At least for me. I am so excited to be part of the Baruch MFE program. I tried to nap (after studying all night thinking the interview was going to be very technical). Now, i cant even sleep. I feel like i am in cloud 9. I can't feel my feet anymore. 1 year of hard studying paid off. The journey begins...

Hi,

I just received an phone interview invitation from Baruch. The interview will be on Feb. 3, given by Professor Rados Radoicic. (already updated on tracker.)

Any one here have any tip? Prof Radoicic is said as "a freaking math genius" on ratemyprofessors.com, so I probably should expect most questions to be mathematical? and difficult?

I bought two quant interview books two weeks ago, "heard on the wall street" and "frequently asked question in quant finance", not sure if they would help.. I haven't had time to read it though..

thanks!

 

[Andy Nguyen]

radosr posted a lot of interesting questions under the Quant Interview section. May check those out to see the kind of stuff he is into. Good luck.

 

[JIKUN]

That's great! Thanks Andy!
