hey bro, may you share that why you choose Uchicago but not NYU Courant?

Primarily, due to UChicago's reputation and the courses MFE students are enabled to pick from departments such as Econ, Stats, CS and B-School. Also, professors are top-notch and it's a better city for a student than NYC. Undoubtedly, Courant offers a great program but I was captivated by taking courses from Nobel laureates
