First of all, thanks all cders for sharing information.

They admit 2% out of 500+ applicants and ask me to respond before Mar 5 because of a long waiting list.

Let me introduce my background:

95~01: shishi middle school in Chengdu

01~04: peking university with math major overall gpa 3.5, major gpa 3.83

         Rejected by all schools in my first around application in us (apply for stat)

04~05: unemployment ( This tells "gang tie shi zen yang lian cheng de", hehe)

        Get only 1 offer from IUB only otherwise I cannot come to usa (apply for math)

05~07: IUB math, expected to get a m.a. on this may

Two working papers about market microstructure

That is it. Also, it can be used for reference how one switchs his major to finance phd.

I would like to answer any questions, my email would be liheng.xu(在) gmail.com

interview contents on saturday

1. why do you like Market Microstructure?

2. How do you feel when you work with prof.A(we coauthered a working paper)

3. Why do you choose Kyle(1985) model rather than Glosten and Milgrom(1985) model in your paper?

4. Why do you choose to work with Prof.A?

5.Have you gotten some other offers or news so far?

6. We are really excited about what you did (2 working papers) in the Market Microstructure and will recommend you to the committee. The result will follow in the next week and there would be another interview.

这句话啥意思啊？人家做出决定通知要不要你之后，还要面试啊？？？

lz给解释解释被？？

谢谢啦

To #13,

    This is what it means "My colleagues and I hope to speak to you by phone soon, and we will be sending a formal letter in the mail in the next week or two" . I don't know whether it is an interview. They sent me the long offer letter and I guess they just wanna to have some casual talk with me.

Have you met her before? when and where? Are you a current student in cornell? Thanks.

I watched her 2003 presidential address at afa, again and again.

If i accept this offer, definitely follow her.
