mathgirl28 Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Does anyone know which programs interview. I see that Yale and Duke does. Do any others?
dasgut Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 mathgirl28, Do you know if Yale has already started doing interviews?
mathgirl28 Posted January 10, 2012 Author Posted January 10, 2012 I saw someone post a yale interview for statistics on the results page (but after browsing i no longer see it). It might have been fake. I actually wanted to know about interviews for general preparation purposes. I had guessed that the stats programs i applied to didn't interview at all. I didn't apply to Yale or Duke, but other top 10 schools and i was wondering which of those interviews. Does anyone know?
dasgut Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 I personally kinda find it hard to believe. Only ONE b-school stats program I applied to is doing interviews and if anyone's gonna do interviews, it's gonna be a b-school.
mathgirl28 Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 No i found it: http://thegradcafe.com/survey/index.php?t=w&o=&p=7 Someone posted a Yale interview. Like i said, don't know if its fake or not...
wine in coffee cups Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I was curious about this too and pulled up the historical thegradcafe data. Some evidence of PhD statistics interviews (email, phone, or on campus): Yale Florida State UMD UIUC Rochester Duke UCSB Oxford University of South Carolina Michigan Rutgers Case Western
dasgut Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I actually looked at the historical data just now and all I saw was the 2012 interview. What were your search terms?
wine in coffee cups Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I ran this search: http://thegradcafe.com/survey/index.php?q=statistic*&t=a&pp=250 and within each of the 9 pages I looked for the word "interview" or "visit" and used my judgment.
dasgut Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Now, I definitely find it hard to believe Yale has offered interviews. I submitted my app pretty early and I just today got an email saying it's been forwarded to the adcom. R Deckard 1
supremum Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 (edited) Just got a Yale Statistics PHD Interview Request. Anyone have any clue what they're going to ask?? I'm guessing it's going to be something like, "so, tell us about your honors thesis...so, what research are you interested in...so, why do you like yale" ?? Edited January 23, 2012 by supremum
dasgut Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 I just got one too! I have no idea what to do or how to prepare for it. I'm just going to read their website religiously. supremum and R Deckard 1 1
ANDS! Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I just got one too! I have no idea what to do or how to prepare for it. I'm just going to read their website religiously. You could just email and ask them.
ANDS! Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Well, if they aren't responding fast enough - simply call them.
