Could you please tell me what the first interview is all about?
The first interview is techinical. Read heard on the street and the book with green cover. What's your major? The interviewer will ask questions based on your background and pick up the questions from books.

How important are the interviews? Also, how much do they take to communicate the outcomes? Anyone heard from them for 3rd round?

How about a closed Facebook/Quantnet group for all the admitted students? We can introduce ourselves, plan and discuss the admit conditions and preparations needed to make the move to Berkeley. It would also provide a good opportunity to network with fellow students before the program starts.

Hi Everyone!

Does anybody applying to UCB MFE in the 4th round heard something from the admisions team about a final decision? I already had my technical interview 3 weeks ago and my status is still Under Review.

Thanks in advance for your comments!

Hi
Even I applied in the 4 round.. had my first interview 4 weeks back. Still waiting for any response.
I called the admissions committee a while back.. they said the application is still under review and I shd expect the result by Dec 15.

Does any one have any idea how it was in the previous years for round 4 applicants?

I see a few people being rejected, admitted, and waitlisted on tracker.
I contacted admission office last week and this week, but they said they do not have any updates for me yet.
The admission office said they will send out results before 15th, which is by Sunday.
Has anybody else heard back from UCB? Please share your experience. Thanks.

did u get a reject yesterday ? l meant to say that if you havent heard back from them uptill now, you probably are waitlisted.i wouldnt take their rejection too seriously. there are lots of other programs out there. moreover you can ask them to give you suggestions to enhance your candidacy and reapply early in the admission cycle
