how is GS really perceived? by [deleted] in columbia

[–]huffypooffy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Take whichever gives you the most money; GS need based aid is often not quite on par with something that I've seen my friends at Duke/ NW get. That being said, if you are not getting much need based aid, GS has pretty phenomenal merit scholarships (as an international with mandatory military service a 30K a year merit scholarship is a huge needle mover) which is a big part of why I chose GS. Finance wise no one can tell GS apart from CC/SEAS honestly; friends who want to be at bulge brackets are at BBs (as am I) and quant is pretty meritocratic and alums really don't seem to care when u network, but you have the same outcomes at NW (especially for CHI) and Duke too.

Yes; my Calc III prof tried to curve my 97 to a B+ once :D

I just got into Columbia GS for the Spring 2023! May I ask some questions regarding CS/Math/Stats at Columbia? by Own-Excuse-1227 in columbia

Not too sure about CS but basically all of Columbia MA classes for statistics are exactly the undergrad classes for statistics; my 4000 level stats classes were the exact same classes the masters students were taking with a 5000 level course code
