NYU Langone Spring 2008

What status page are you supposed to check?

Good information to know on the background check. My status page has not changed throughout the process other than to acknowledge the receipt of my initial deposit. I received an email from 'NYU Stern Admissions' about a week after initiating the verification process that said the following:

"Welcome to the NYU Stern Langone Program! We have received your enrollment deposit and your verification process has been satisfactorily completed. We are thrilled that you are part of our community."

I don't think an updated status page is forthcoming so I would consider the verification process complete after you get the email.

Now about that Quantitative Skills assessment....anybody give that a crack yet? It's been about 2 years since my GMAT so I need some prep I think.

Just review the practice CD and you will be fine.

37 questions and no time limit.

It took approx 20 minutes.

what's the latest count?

The current count is 297.

Happy Holidays to everyone.

Thank you, you too.

what is this 'count' you guys speak of?

The "count" is the number of people listed in the "New Students Database", i.e. admits that have paid the initial deposit. During the evaluation period, it was used as a fairly reliable guage to measure the number of remaining seats (when compared vs. the spring 2007 admissions stats for Langone). However, only those on the list could see the list so 'Clubbers relied on those folks admitted early in the process to keep us updated (and worried).

The current (and final?) count is 297. I think last spring's # was ~280. I haven't seen many ding reports here so I'm not sure if AdCom is still evaluating or moved on to full-time apps only.

Have any of the waitlisted candidates heard back? I have not heard anything yet.

Nope. I don't even know what to think at this point.

can I get the updated count please?

Count increased by 1 since my last check...now at 298.

It really sucks that you guys haven't heard anything definitive even now. However, there is reason to keep the faith. I met a girl at a holiday party a few weeks back that got in only one week before pre-term in Fall '07. Hang in there...best of luck!

Thank you, that's reassuring

Hey guys,

any ideas on how long the Quantative Assessment (realistically) takes? I am due to start it sometime tonight :/

Thanks,

If you decide to review the entire Survival Guide CD first, it could take you a couple of hours. The test itself probably only takes about an hour (it's not timed), depending on how much time you take working through the more complex problems.

One nice thing about the exam is that you can start the exam, save your progress, and then return to the exam later to complete it.

Or print it out, complete it on paper, and then come back to the on-line test and fill in your answers. You can print the test without using one of your 3 attempts also.

How many of u guys coming tomorrow(or today) for the HH?
