UCLA MFE UCLA MFE Admission Discussion

[redoctober]

Seniors, could you please guide me on how to tackle the technical part of the interview? It would mean so much. Is it difficult? Any tips? Should I revise a few college math concepts before attending it? I've to take it in the next day or two. Thanks a lot.

If you're rusty on math I would definitely go over basic calc/linear algebra/probability

If you google Chinese forums for them you can find questions from last year which are very accurate to this year (I had a few of the same questions)

Could you please send over the link to the forum with last year's Qs? Also, can I connect with you on Reddit or somewhere else if you're comfortable? Thanks a ton.

Probably revise Basic Linear Algebra, Probability concepts and PDEs. The questions are fundamental and won't need a lot of calculation. All the Best!

Hey, anyone received an update? I gave my interview on 17 feb and got an email on 1st March saying that my application is still under review. I’ve emailed them again last week, but they said the same thing. Just wanted to know if anyone else is in the same situation

I am in the same boat, gave my interview on 26th Feb. Honestly, I don't have much hopes left.

I wouldn’t keep waiting if you haven’t heard anything yet. The admits orientation zoom call is tomorrow and I believe this is the only one (for round 1 at least)

Very long without a response or a single update yet. End of April now - they should confirm either way.

Did you get any update? I think they might have just forgot,

A few days back I received an email that stated that I could still complete my video interview if I wished. The funny thing is that I never received an invite for a video interview. I wrote back asking for clarity, it's been a week but haven't heard back.

They took my Interview in February, no update since. Maybe in your case, the interview invite went into your spam folder. It actually happened to me for another college.
