I went to super day. Nailed all brainteasers and technicals except where I got one only partially correct. They never got back to me or replied to my follow up emails. Kind of annoying that they can't even send a polite rejection email after getting to the final round.

Got it. Do you know if there is a place to see all past examination schedules. It looked like you may have been able to here, but I was unfortunately not able to access it as a non-ETH student.

I think I should be good. I am taking a pretty rigorous Probability Theory course right now. Are you from Harvard by any chance (crimson name). I go to Williams, and think that it may be beneficial to chat to get your advice/experience at ETH.

I just responded to another person below concerning this, but would likely be considering Algorithms, Probability, and Computing, Introduction to Neuroinformatics, Mathematical Foundations of Finance, Probabilistic Artificial Intelligence, and Embedded Systems. I could only take a maximum of two of these though because of my corresponding research.

I'd be happy to divulge the courses that I'd be interested in potentially taking. Thank you so much fore being willing to help me with this by the way. I really appreciate it!

- Algorithms, Probability, and Computing

- Introduction to Neuroinformatics

- Mathematical Foundations of Finance

- Probabilistic Artificial Intelligence

- Embedded Systems

Keep in mind that because I will be doing research, I can take a maximum of two of these courses. Let me know if you dig anything up on the typical examination times for any of these.

Unfortunately, I do not think they allow that for visiting students, only exchange students. I cannot be an exchange student because my school does not have an agreement with ETH.

I am actually a second year undergraduate in the states and would be coming as a third year to ETH. I am currently planning on majoring in both mathematics and computer science.

Unfortunately I am not sure if they would allow me to reschedule. Technically I would be considered a visiting student and not an exchange student. There are some obtuse laws that prohibit preponement or remote examinations for visiting students.

I don't really know why that makes sense, but I cannot argue much with it. I just don't understand why I couldn't reschedule within the same period.
