I haven’t been given any course requirements yet. Have you? I think my GRE score is still pending to be sent

@travybel,
Are you an applicant as well? If yes, have you been provided some course requirements as well?

Nope, Round 1

Is there someone who reapplied to this program? Do reapplicants have a good second chance?

darthvader · 4/6/22

Has anyone applied in Round 2 heard anything? When do they start with R2 interviews?

I'd really thankful if you can share what was it like as well as your application profile, i.e. background, did you meet all of the pre-requisite courses on their website and etc.

Becoming-Quant · 5/2/22

The interview was purely technical. They ask questions from Linear Algebra, Calculus, Probs & Stats, ML, C++, finance etc. They will also see what you have on your resume and ask questions on that.

Can you give examples of questions plz?

bamf · 5/6/22

No. But I am afraid that it's because my last recommendation was submitted in early April. And I haven't heard anything since then.

PDquant · 6/6/22

Hello,
I had been waitlisted for UCB MFE, but have not had my interview yet. I have been asked to complete few courses first(Coursera coursers etc). What are the chances of converting the waitlist to Acceptance? Anyone who was in a similar position and has received an admit? Thank you.

GoNoles · 6/6/22

UCB asked you to complete coursera courses to become more eligible? Is this to fill gaps from undergrad?

PDquant · 6/6/22

Yes, for some prerequisites.

SD_ · 6/6/22

I'm not sure about this, but I think you will have to wait till at least the end of Round 3. The admitted students also get a pre-requisite checklist so don't worry, it is very much possible that you'll be interviewed soon. Just make sure that you are disciplined, are doing the courses and are sending them regular monthly updates. Good luck!
