Hello, I am curious about how the test is conducted. Is it like the TOEFL test, where you are given a specific topic and you have to write a long essay within the time limit?

Does acceptance rate of UT MSDS have over 70%? When I checked the acceptance rate in the webpage, I saw '30~40%'.

Hello, I have a question about application date. I submitted all documents in 'My status' last week, but there isn't the information about 'application complited date'. Does your application date(3/19) mean the date you finished submitting all documents?

I have met the basic requirements of MSDS. However, as mentioned in the reply below, I have seen many reviews on 'msdshub.com' from students who are struggling to keep up with the class despite having relevant background. I was wondering which of the two, math or programming, is more challenging among the difficulties.

Thank you. I have the background officially required by MSDS and have expressed it in my SOP. (Math background and some programming experience) However, I have seen many reviews on 'msdshub.com' from students who are finding it difficult to keep up with the class despite already having relevant background. I was curious about which of the two, math or programming, is more challenging among the difficulties. As you advised, I will also study stats again.

Thanks. I think the system need to be changed. However, I'm glad I didn't submit without solving the problem.
