Chicago MSFM Chicago MSFM has interview this year?

[Yolo Zhang]

Just find that some people received interview invitation from Chicago MSFM. It seems that they did not use interviews in the previous years. Anyone received interview from Chicago?

Yeah. My friend from THU got an skype interview invitation.

Yeah. My friend from THU got an skype interview invitation.

So they only interview ppl from China or ppl on margin? Any indication they will interview everyone this year?

I don't think they are ppl on margin. My friend is outstanding. And it's a skype interview, not video one.

Thanks for your reply. Might be they are interviewing outstanding ones to offer them stipends.

BTW, you mean 'Skype audio chat' one but not 'Skype video chat' one? Will the video interview be conducted in other ways like FaceTime or sth else...? Just curious..

no i think he means it is skype video, not those video recording and uploading interview.
I have never heard interviews are doen in facetime. all of them are in skype.

 

[Yolo Zhang]

Actually, I know a guy interviewed on the phone and he got the ad.

 

[Yolo Zhang]

But that was half month ago.

Yeah. By video interview I mean they have to record and send them back. like 5 questions with 1min each. Cornell's interview is in this way. Skype is "live" interview.

So, the ad has been out already? It seems that they sent out results starting from mid-March last year.

 

[Lena Lee]

I heard two ppl having got interview invitation yesterday. And I don't think their backgrounds are equally outstanding, one pretty good, the other just above ordinary.

I do not think so, he got ad half month ago and I did not hear anyone else got ad so early.

I've got the interview too on Feb. 25.
I think I might have seen someone posting about his or her early AD decision by Chicago with an interview on some sort of forums half month ago, but I cannot find it right now. Maybe that's exactly the guy you're talking about??

Yes, I am talking about this guy.

Yes, I am talking about this guy.

So.. There might be a fast track for early decision, though we haven't asked for it. Maybe that will work??

Not sure. But it seems that you do not need early decision. Admission would be released in Mar.
