Comment on Do It Yourself Masters in Financial Engineeringparent

Comments

Thanks for the relevant comments.

I addressed #1 in the article. Suffice to say I disagree.

#2 Who says you interact deeply with material in school?

#3 comes from Emanuel Derman's interviews of fresh grads.

#4 I do understand the difference but I would rather prop trade than make markets.

#5 There are so many sub-areas. Should you study wavelets? Finite element method? Differential geometry? EDA? Bayes? ML?

#6 Perhaps I am more risk-averse than you. Or less trusting.

#2, #7 - I said that's the irreproducible part of an MFE.

Would you mind adding your comments to the Disqus on the site? They're very thorough and as you're an MFE grad they counterbalance what I said. I think your viewpoint is quite valuable.
