Hi Dan thanks for replying! I am working through them now in Mathematical Techniques, and will then move onto pdes. I just finished the chapters on matrices (Gaussian elimination and eigenvalues). After odes and pdes I think I'll be out of time. Any tips? Thanks!

Hi,

Has anyone applied for the November deadline? Do you know when we can expect to hear about interviews and are they likely to be before Christmas?

I have submitted my application to this program but one referee was not able to submit the letter in time. But my application says that it is ready for assessment. Do you think I could make it to the interviews and if the one less letter would make a difference?

how was your interview? did you answer to everything correctly? I answered everything except for a question that kind of shocked me... I don't know if I should consider myself more out or in

I answered both the questions I was asked but the first one I kind of flunked wasn't really expecting it. I wasn't too confident either but you never know how it actually went. Good luck :smile:

what is your background if you don't mind me asking?

You have the offer then?
I have studied Aeronautics in Spain, top 5% and with experience in math modelling of an internship of one year. But I made a mistake in the interview and I hope that they don't consider it unforgivable hahaha.
By the way, do you remember exactly how many days later you heard of them?

Any one holding an offer on this course can tell me if you were asked to pay deposit??? I accept mine ages ago, no such thing mentioned within the letter.
Neither have I heard from any college for a position.
Frighten to death that they invalidates my offer because deposit is missing =(

Does this course need deposit ??????

Hi everyone, congratulations to everyone has got an offer for the course! I have an interview this Friday and I was wondering if someone could clear something up about the interview? Like how impossible the technical questions are and whether they are geared more towards your personal background or are quite general?

Thank you in advance!

hey, everyone! I'm a Civil engineeirng undergraduate student and was just wondering if anyone has applied with a Beng degree and if it is possible to do that. if so, being one of the less mathematical subjects (compared to physics and pure mathematics), what typical skills would I need to focus on before applying? like I meet the prerequisites but most of the maths we do at uni is by using Math CAD.

Thank you
