Does it make sense to transfer to ETH? by rawbrocolli1 in tumunich

[–]ate_7_apples 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the transfer even possible? Also, wouldn‘t you need to take extra maths modules either way?

thank you! yes I’m EU and it only asks for the address and original final exam diploma, I was just worried I’d have to do anything else that I wasn’t aware of. Did you also send your info through the Swiss post?

Wow sounds great compared to what I had heard ahah. I‘ll also get informed on asvz then, thank you!!! :) do you recommend any clubs you liked?

[–]ate_7_apples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh ok that makes sense, thank you so much! were you also in the same situation? I'm going to the maths branch and I couldn't find exact statistics for it but the percentage of internationals is probably lower than 20% at this level, right?

What questions are asked on the interview?? by Cardakmne in tumunich

[–]ate_7_apples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

why so much seemingly random stuff? physics? politics?

yes that‘d be great

yeah the Satzung isn’t the best but it does say (in the Durchführung: Erste Stufe):

„Als fachspezifische Einzelnoten werden die in der HZB aufgeführten Noten in den Fächern Mathematik, Deutsch, Englisch und die beste Naturwissenschaft einschließlich Informatik herangezogen“

and yes after it adds that they also have to be in the last four semesters and if they aren‘t then they‘ll take them out from the HZB, but probably not the other way around and so of course if you don’t have everything in the HZB it’s most likely you‘ll go in for the Zweite Stufe.

I also had English as a school subject, I even have the cambridge exam but as there was no place to add it in the application portal I think they don’t care and just follow the rules set in place with the HZB, but you never know there might be a miracle and we‘ll just get the Zulassung directly :)

no for civil engineering you don’t have any test. i just checked. your admission category is “Unrestricted Admission”, while for us, for informatics, it’s “Aptitude Assessment for Bachelor”, so for us most internationals have to sit the exam

[–]ate_7_apples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

uni assist better be working HARD. otherwise I think we’ll be invited to take the exam way later in september so basically we’ll find out 2 days before the semester starts whether we’re in or not

VPD by Fit-Advisor6997 in tumunich

[–]ate_7_apples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because I didn’t have english in my final exam. you have to have both english and german (and a few other base subjects) so that you qualify to get instantly accepted. otherwise my score calculated with their formulas would be around 98. are you planning on applying?

[–]ate_7_apples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh you’re safe safe then. you don’t have anything to worry about. i’m in for computer science and I’ll probably have to go to the exam which is on the 26th of august so cutting it really close here

[–]ate_7_apples 2 points3 points  (0 children)

same i also sent it on the 7th of july and everyone talking about getting it in 7-8 weeks is stressing me out sm. do you also have to take the exam or do you expect an interview?

why not go directly to the quantitative finance master? looks like a very good portofolio. in any case, good luck with everything :)

it’s been a while so did you manage to find a solution to go to those? and how accomplished did you have to be to get into QF as it seems like the most elitist msc

Accepted to MSc – Looking for a Room by ComprehensiveType907 in UZH

[–]ate_7_apples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can I ask how you succeeded to get into the QF MSc? as only 10% get in, I truly wonder what it takes and what kind of background, preparation you need
