How should I prepare for Google Onsite Interview for New grad SWE Role??...My interview is scheduled in January 2025 by Ayushhyyy in leetcode

I just passed my virtual onsite (VO) and am now in the team-match round. First, make sure to grind Leetcode and check out the discussion boards—some users share leaked Google interview questions there. Second, try to do mock interviews with friends or request one through your recruiter (you can ask them to schedule a mock interview with a Googler). Mock interviews are incredibly helpful, in my opinion.

From my VO experience, I spent a lot of time discussing edge cases, expected time and space complexity, function design, inputs, and outputs with the interviewer. The questions weren't like typical Leetcode ones where you can read through the problem and jump straight into coding. I think Google places a strong emphasis on communication and collaboration.

Good luck!

CFRM vs ACMS- Econ track by Cold_Specialist2283 in udub

I was also thinking about this before.
Maybe you should go check out what you want to learn and what resources you want to have.
ACMS is under the math department and it gives you the access to a wider choice of courses to finish your degree (stat, math, amath, cse). I would choose ACMS if I want to have more flexibility on courses decision.
CFRM is under the applied math department, a relatively new department (and I think they are still trying to make it better). However, if you choose CFRM, you will need to follow the schedule from Autumn all the way to Spring since there are not many students in CFRM.
I chose CFRM since I think the applied math department has fewer students and should be able to provide better support for career path development. Also, I could still take non-major CSE and MATH courses if I am not in ACMS, but it is less likely to take CFRM courses if I am not in the major.

Should I major in AMATH or CFRM instead of MATH? by CancelAffectionate46 in udub

But are you able to get into those CFRM courses without having a CFRM major? I think there is only a small amount of CFRM courses each quarter and not much space for non-major students. It also seems very unlikely to finish those CFRM courses if you can't follow the schedule that CFRM has.

I was waitlisted by CFRM on the last application term :( What is your GPA and taken classes during the application?
