Something else I've been curious about for a while- What is this math diagnostic all about?

Math Skills Workshop

Course Objective
We offer a Math Skills Workshop (MSW) as a review course of the quantitative skills that will facilitate your transition into the MBA program.

Please check your admission letter to determine if your successful completion of the MSW core is a condition of your admission. You are also welcome to register and complete the course if you would like to take it as a refresher.

Course Format
To accommodate the wide spectrum of backgrounds in our incoming class, the course will be organized in five modules. The five modules are algebra, mathematical finance (exp/log), differentiation, multivariable calculus, and probability. There will be diagnostic tests available to help you determine what modules you should attend. The course will focus on the main concepts and skills that you will need in your MBA program.

Diagnostic Tests
Diagnostic tests will help you determine the level of preparation you will need for live instruction during BaseCamp. You will be able to attend the entire Math Skills Workshop or just those sessions where you need to brush up on the details.

International Student Orientation starts August 7, 2015.
BaseCamp will start August 10, 2015.
First day of mini 1 will be August 31, 2015.

Anyone going to Welcome Weekend? It would be nice to meet people from the internet in the real world (in a non creepy way lol). My wife and I will be in Pittsburgh 4/23 - 4/26.

I will be at Welcome Weekend. I'll PM you about it.

In the same admission letter, I got the amount. Pretty excited to get in after hosts of rejects.

Unfortunately, the scholarship information would in the admission letter.

Congratulations to those who got admitted. Hopefully you guys have some tough decisions...but decide to come to Tepper!

Congratukations guys!

Really curious about how folks are going to manage the fees.

Fellow Indians, how much loan are you guys taking up? The amount is so flabbergasting!

Guys, anyone has made up their mind on the housing? I saw the on-Campus Shirley and Neville apartment for grad student, and I don't think I would stay there considering many of the rooms are shared with other occupants. I don't mind sharing apartment with a shared bathroom...any info for good apartment/ house in Shadyside? budget under $1,000/mo including utilities
