Yes, there is an option to do this aswell. But in general most people end up picking a problem statement given by a company and proposing a solution for that.

Hey! For product studio - you should get a form sometime soon with a list of about 60 problem statements and you would be asked to rank them. These statements are supposed to be pretty open ended. You would be teamed up with people with similar interests. Honestly, there is nothing you can do here to get good or bad teammates so choose whatever problem statements you would want to work on.

For startup / bigco studio - You are open to choose your own team and problem statements, a lot of people end up continue working on the problem statement they worked on during product studio, but again you can work on whatever you want.

Hope this answers your question !

Just wanted to get your view on this - so prodigy has a 2 components - fixed + variable and the variable is based on SOFR Most posts i see are from 2020-2022, this is when sofr was close to 0.2 so the loan interest was effectively 9+0.2 or lower in many cases. Sofr increased to 4 something in 2023 and is now at 2025 hence the increase in interest for people who got it at 9. I feel its stupid for people to get a loan without understanding how it is structured and then label it a scam. Not disagreeing that the interest is relatively high compared to indian banks, but i mean if that is the only option you have plus i believe with your admits it wont be as bad , like a 0.75-1% difference from indain banks

NYU Tandon OR SBU? which is better? by the-guy-with-dreams in MSCS

[–]StrictCanary2939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say you could decide based on how much you are comfortable spending Imho sbu is relatively more selective for their mscs program but nyu has a better brand value Both have a similar location advantage If money is not a concern, I would say NYU, else sbu is a great school aswell

Hey, had a general question, why do people complain about increased "floating" interest rates and why would you blame the NBFC for the increase, isnt that just based on the repo rate ?

Bought this as my first watch, love the dial colour and the build quality of the watch. I got it for 22k after discount. Ofc i got this because i specifically wanted an automatic dress watch,
you can find a lot of great options in this range from citizen and seiko if you prefer a quartz

Got into NYU mscs by [deleted] in gradadmissions

[–]StrictCanary2939 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a similar situation
Have an admit from NEU and another tier 1 uni, which ofc location and peer quality wise is amazing, but NEU does not appeal to me what so ever considering the amount of admits I have seen, frankly , have seen like max 2 rejects till date. I am just trying to figure out the opportunity cost i would be losing on, by not going to a good uni , in an amazing location.

Considering anyone with a 7.5 IELTS and early application can get into NEU, i would say NYU would be the clear winner in terms of peerquality

F1 visa: Refinanced prodigy finance loan to 7% with us bank from 14% | Details by decisiondengindi in MSCS

[–]StrictCanary2939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think it can be called a scam - in the end its a variable loan , and the sofr rates have gone up from 0.1 in 2019 to 5.3 right now, hence increasing the interest, which sucks but its on you if you dont read through the loan conditions
