Awards/Honors/Recognitions: Handful of honor societies and scholarships. Pertinent Activities or Jobs: N/A
Letters of Recommendation:
(1) Research professor who more than likely praised the research; decent name in physics
(2) Statistics professor and adviser, spoke more to aspirations and character I assume
(3) Biostatistics professor who probably wrote a basic letter, but is a pretty big name Any Miscellaneous Points that Might Help:
Biggest thing that helps my application are my publications, plus I was able to finish my undergrad in 2 years. Applying to Where: I think its clear I wanted to be back in the South :-) Vanderbilt University -- Biostatistics, PhD -- Accepted [Will Attend]
