Didn't ask this time. What I got from the "formal interview" is Marhc 1st.

I'm hoping we start to hear on Monday... my interview was over a week ago.

You think they will still send out any interviews tomorrow, or they made their final decisions? And did they send any transfer to MSOR already?

It is very unlikely that they will send out more invitations. Let's just cross our fingers.....

I looked through previous years information on tracker. It seems that most FE interviews were sent out in two weeks and it was unlikely to be admitted without interviews. However, most of rejections were redirected to MSOR. MSOR is still a good choice for quants ,isn't it?

glad to see that, but don't think they can admit that many students in MSOR

I just counted that about 70 students are enrolling in MSFE, while near 210 students are enrolling in MSOR. So it's not surprising that they admit lots of students in MSOR.
