I have been accepted to the master's program in biostatistics at University of Texas Health Science Center. If anybody can share their insights about the program, and also about the job scenario in Houston then it would be really helpful. I urge all the experienced members to kindly share their thoughts. Thanks in advance.

I am an international student and have been admitted to the master's program at University of Texas, UIC, and Boston university( applied biostatistics). I want to work in the industry after my graduation, and since I am from engineering background, I am still exploring the field. So, if anybody can provide their insights about these schools then it would be a great help.

My TOEFL score is 99, and unfortunately, I have sent the score.If I retake the test again, will the university accept my new score?

Hi everyone, I am from engineering background (Civil), and I am planning to apply for the master’s program in biostatistics. I was working in a consultancy firm for the past 2 years. I had studied math in my first three semesters as Engineering math-I, II and III. I am also waiting for the evaluation of my grades from WES. Considering the nature of my application, do I have any chance of getting in or am I wasting my time trying? If anybody could suggest me some colleges then it would be a great help. Thank you so much for your help in advance. Type of Student: International Asian Male Courses/Background Engineering math I Differential calculus-I, Differential calculus-II, Matrix algebra, Multiple integrals, Vector calculus. Engineering math II Ordinary differential equations, series solution and special functions, laplace transform, Fouries series and partial differential equation, application of partial differential equations. Engineering math III Functions of complex variable-I , Numerical Techniques – I &II Statistical Techniques I -Moments, Moment generating functions, Skewness, Kurtosis, Curve fitting, Method of least squares, Fitting of straight lines, Polynomials, Exponential curves etc., Correlation, Linear, non –linear and multiple regression analysis, Probability theory Statistical Techniques II- Binomial, Poisson and Normal distributions, Sampling theory (small and large), Tests of significations: Chi-square test, t-test, Analysis of variance (one way) , Application to engineering, medicine.Time series and forecasting (moving and semi-averages), Statistical quality control methods, Control charts. Language I had also done a lab in statistical and numerical techniques in C language in my second year. I have taken online classes in R and Python(Coursera,edX), but I don’t know whether they hold some value or not. GRE scores: 164Q; 155 V; 4.5 W
