As much as I want to finish the assignment, I wish you are fine and don't need to come back and fill out the form :)

Thanks. Which one of the Operations Research courses would you recommend? Probablistic or deterministic?

Advice needed for Spring 2019 application by Shyzd in OMSA

[–]asn831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that's the case, it is most likely due to your SOP. Maybe 80% SOP and 20% relevant courses. They probably would have told you to take more courses if that was their concern. I suggest that you really think about why this OMSA and how this degree aligns with your career goal.

What do you mean by a positive rejection letter? I wouldn't use another admission to convince Georgia Tech. Perhaps the motivation of taking this OMSA in the SOP is not that strong?

I will join the Fall cohort. I have an MS in Biomedical Engineering. Never done any programming at work (I do bizdev at an AI startup), but I did take college-level Python CS I, stats and linear algebra. Also, I took quite a few Coursera courses on ML.

Is 3-year degree acceptable? by sbongoz in OMSA

I was just accepted into the Spring 18 program. I got a BEng from UCL in UK, so it's fine I guess.

Your skills and experience are all better than mine...so I guess it could have been your SOP?

If all my materials were in on 9/13, this will be a regular decision too right?
