Hi Yang_Pop, how do you know that it is 1 week? Did you call them to ask? I have not heard anything from them, quite worry :(
I email them, since I have another interview to arrange.
They replied with this info:)

Wow congratz yang_pop for your interview! So they ask you to choose the interview day or they will give you some choices?
Thanks;)
They just told me the assessment will reach us shortly without any other more specific info

May I ask about your location? So you had the onsite interview? It seems that it would be a sort of online math test the same as the one offfered by Waterloo? :)

No, I am in China now, and I received the assessment invitation via email, not the onsite one.
So, what is the inline test of Waterloo like?

But you have interviewed? through the skype or phone? I still have no knowledge about when the interview will be( before or after the assessment) I haven't applied for waterloo. But I heard that some multiple choices. :)

I'd say the Waterloo entrance test is much harder, with many financial and statistic questions, also some real analysis questions as well. It's also longer, you have 2 hours to do about 26-27 questions. The UT one (the one for onsite interviews), on the other hand, is much shorter and more like a basic math test. I'm not sure about the online assessment though.

No, just as you, I haven't took the assessment or interview, and not sure if there would be one indeed;)

Thank you very much;)~~
if as tech as that, I guess my life would be in a mass to prepare for that.
But I have questions that if the assessment is only about the basic math, and we are provided 2 hours to complete, how could they judge our work, since most of which should be well done?

For the onsite test, it's only 45 mins. If UT gives you 2 hours for an online test, chances are it would be harder than the onsite one. Otherwise there's no point in doing this at all.

Here is the point, they give us one week to complete the online assessment

I do not think any test can measure the whole process of study of an applicant, it is just to remove those completely not adept with maths such as those who in econ or biz with no exposure to rigourous training in maths. I believe they will base on the entire academic record instead of this test, like any other programs

This is only to wedge out those who are really not suitable, such as those with very week maths background, i think they evaluate based on the whole portfolio

Jondan, from my offer letter, it says that the tuition is 40k+$1200 incidental fees+$105 portal access fees. There is an internship session (which I think is 100% placement) in the winter term that pays $17,000 directly to your MMF tuition fees.

Any International applicant from India got online assessment email?

I'm anxious and still waiting for their reply.
