I know this question has been asked many times before- could you please point me to recommended books for the statistics pre-req?


If you prefer to take the pre-req exam that's OK. But i dont knw if you recieved this email from the office
I quote the email -
"We will be offering two Data & Decision Workshops for admitted students to satisfy the EWMBA statistics requirement:

1) Saturday option – classes will be held 6 consecutive Saturdays from April 7th to May 12th
2) Online option – 6 week online course beginning mid-June
Please note: Due to space limitations, you may only enroll in these classes if you have been admitted to the program. If you submitted your application in Round 2, detailed schedule and registration information for the Saturday option class will be provided shortly after you receive your admissions decision on March 29. The first class will meet on Saturday, April 7th. We are in the process of finalizing the Online Option and will send out information as soon as it becomes available.

Thanks Abhi.
Anonymba, The stats exam is not that difficult and I also heard that the admissions office is lenient in terms of your stats score. I have heard of countless students getting through with less than optimal scores. Also, the Berkeley course is $1000 +, if you go to some community college and do the same course you may be done under $200. In the end, YMMV.

Btw- I was trying to find courses from Stanford and MIT on itunes and I came across this course and it seems to cover about 80% of topics mentioned.

Hi, I've been lurking for a while.

My profile:
29 year old male of south asian descent
GMAT: 720 (47Q 42V) / AWA 6.0, only taken once in 1/2012
GPA <<3.0 , BS in computer engineering from U of Illinois. (I partied too much)
7+ years WE as systems manager for a small marketing company, some good projects under my belt.
Not much for ECs.
Decent Recs (i hope) from longtime clients
I currently work in Chicago but could possibly relocate to bay area and telecommute rather than fly in every weekend.

App submitted 3/13
Contacted for interview 3/26, gonna schedule for mid-april

I'm probably a longshot for admission, but if the adcom has me as part of the 2/3s that gets an interview I hope it means they're at least willing to look past my very crappy gpa.

I received my invitation to interview via email. Did some people receive phone calls? Does it mean anything if they email but don't call?

Good luck everyone. 8-)

Congrats on the interview invite. As far as I know all interview invites are via email. Only if you are accepted will you get the "510---" phonecall. As many of us Rd 1/2 applicants (including me) are hoping for a call sometime today.....Good luck with your interview.

Who knows? The buildup and anticipation has just about gotten me sick. Just want to know already! One way or the other...
