Yike Lu Finder of biased coins. Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or to take up arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing end them. Lot of good answers.
But the question is not if you would get in, rather would be able to capitalize on it given an opportunity? MFE is tangential to Finance, a more circuitous way, and you would be surrounded by folks who get more pleasure reading Newton's Principia Mathematica than Shakespearean Sonnets. So ask yourself where you stand in that spectrum? If you don't enjoy programming, solving equations you will even have a hard time graduating let alone a shot at your dream job.
Daniel Duffy said:. Depends on what you want to do Do NOT do an MFE if you are interested in doing all that, you will just end up disappointed and drop out and waste time. Yeah, you rightly pointed out about the study environment I would be in. Material Eng.
I truly sucked at it. I was waiting for the time i'm done with the program. I aced my advanced linear algebra, quantum physics classes but never really enjoyed it. It just didn't make me happy at the end of the day. You rightly pointed out that my decision is clouded by my desired outcome rather than merit. Talking to you guys is has helped me a lot. I thank each n everyone of you to guiding me to the right path. Parallax said:. First of all, achieving all three of those by age 24 means you have been studying and testing like crazy for the last three years achieving all of these by 24 is actually somewhat skeptical IMO.
Do you want to spend almost all of your 20's in one form of school or another? Take a bit of time to explore what options you have right now. I have actually begun to notice some firms buy side looking down upon candidates who have degree after degree and designation after designation.
It was part of my Material Engineering curriculum. I did put a lot of effort to understand it though. Post reply. Similar threads. MFE with a Finance Degree. Replies 4 Views 2K.

In addition, the speed of the course means a superficial treatment, with little comprehension and little sticking to the minds of students after the final. This is exactly what I was hoping for. I'm half way through the second semester of an MFE I was a bit worried about starting MFE without PDE, but at least so far I've gotten through most things fine, and the hardest course for me so far was actually time series, not either of the semesters of stocal Stochastic has been tough, but not because of PDE.
But you are right - a lot of this won't stick in my mind for long after the final, its a lot to absorb, but I'd rather be exposed to it so that I am somewhat familiar with the material. What text are you using? MacCluer Boundary Value Problems and Dover Kreider, Kuller, Ostberg and Perkins.. Consulting other books as well does no harm. I'm currently in my undergrad for mathematics, enrolled in a graduate-level mathematics introductory theory of PDEs course I think you are missing prerequisites, they were merely revisiting those in the first weeks of the course, that's why it seemed to go so fast for you.
ExSan said:. CasanovaJ said:. Schaum "Partial Differential Equations" has lots of worked examples. I'm currently enrolled in a top MFE. Stochastic Calculus is definitely the hardest series in my program.
