Turns out, it isn't one batch. I just received mine. Check your inbox!is it one batch interview? meaning if someone didn't get any till now they're probability rejected?
I have heard from Q&As and previous webinars that it depends on your background. Both the quantitative and the coding assessment are data points relevant to your application if you have experience in those topics. Someone with a coding background is supposed to do well in the coding assessment, otherwise, something might not seem right.I spoke with an admissions officer, and he said that the quantitative assessment doesn't actually interfere with the admission decision. Not sure what to make of that.
Yes, received it on 28th JanAnyone from Europe received an invitation yet?
I personally wouldn't consider the sample test to be "elementary calculus", but maybe my definition of elementary calculus is wrong.over worried (irrationally) about the quant assessment.
Would you think it's comparable to the sample test they have on the program's website?
I agree with you. It's just a little hard to believe an MIT assessment would be pretty basic. But it seems like it -- hopefullyI personally wouldn't consider the sample test to be "elementary calculus", but maybe my definition of elementary calculus is wrong.
Yeah, I hope so too. I will say though it doesn't seem fair that some people are taking the assessment today, while others have 2-3 more weeks to prepare. Therefore, maybe the questions on the later tests will be harder, but that's just a guess.I agree with you. It's just a little hard to believe an MIT assessment would be pretty basic.

I wouldn't think so. Because we all had the choice, but you could argue we didn't receive the emails at the same time. However, still if you think about it, it could be just fair: I have been in industry for a couple of years now. Haven't touched calculus at all during that time. While someone else might be still an undergrad who has all of it fresh on their minds.Yeah, I hope so too.
