Hi, the test was pretty basic. It was mostly some prob, stats, differential and algebra question and then 1 coding question. But the level of the test was very basic.

Interviews happened in mid Jan to Feb in last admission cycle. If it follows the same schedule this year, people would have received invitations by now.

You need to put your application timeline on the Tracker to get an update when people update their MIT Tracker.

Someone has updated "waitlisted" on the tracker but the date is 25th March 2025. What does that even mean? I don't think its legit. Also I believe it was mentioned on the application portal that interview invites will be sent from mid-Jan onwards.

Have you applied? Looks like you don't have any applications on the Tracker.

im honestly devastated as well. i thought i had the right background for the program - top undergrad, math, coding, asset management internships, attending loads of events. maybe my video recording was poor. or maybe im just not good enough because of how competitive the program is.
im starting to think a 2025-26 masters is not on the cards for me.

This year selection criteria is definetely different I have seen both indian and foregin applicants even after having a spectacular profile getting rejected without an interview, when checked the previous 5 years profile even somewhat lesser than those this year had been admitted before but not this time, dont know what exactly are they looking for
Same on my side. Similar profile (same program/uni, similar professional background) to an alumni that got in a few years ago but I was rejected without an interview. It is fine I guess, this process rests on some luck, and I guess we were unlucky this year!

The admission process is not exact science so some people with identical background may get different results.
Thanks @Econogeek for sharing your timeline on the Tracker. Appreciate your contribution to Quantnet.
There are other programs that may lead you to the ultimate goal. MIT is not the only path there. Best of luck.

IDK man. 1 is too less a data point to make any assertion. But the weakest part of my profile is my CGPA. Let's hope MIT was just an aberration.
