I thought I would add some thoughts now that I have one semester left for my masters degree (hopefully two of them). 1. I am way dumber than I thought I was smart. Previous entries list my undergrad stats if you're interested. I have worked harder in the last sixteen months than I ever have, and have probably just begun to discover what I don'...

Yeah, so listening to the latest TAL podcast isn't a good idea. This week's theme is, "Stories of people betting on things with very bad odds."

Thanks to the developers of this site! It's a great resource for those of us that thrive on feedback, but necessarily don't get much at this time. Here is my general situation for anyone with comments or questions about similar situations. I applied for the Masters program to NYU (math), Columbia (applied math), U of Kentucky (math), and RP...
