Although I would greatly prefer some sort of funding. I would definitely consider without funding. I am not really concerned nor do I think I am competitive for top programs. I would be happy with a good school that has a good job placement record. Maybe eventually I would consider going on.

Thanks Nandelle! At this point, I would be interested in an MS in statistics. I would consider continuing on if I felt that I could handle the Ph.D. Eventually I would like to teach in Academia, but it might be in another topic. Ultimately though, I would want the training in statistics. In terms of the Probability Theory course, one must have calcIII and linear to take it and therefore I believe it is a calc based course. I greatly appreciate your reply.

do After earning my BA (Summa Cum Laude) and MA in social sciences (with distinction) from a T4 university in Ohio, I left for law school in Pennsylvania on a full ride T3 and decided that it was not for me. I cam back to T4 to work as a research assistant and complete course work for the Ph.D. as though I never left the MA program. In the process, I have been taking a series of quantitative methods class and this has become my biggest interest. I have taken: Three non-calc based statistics courses in the social sciences. (Many extensions of multiple regression and very application oriented) Earned an A in all but one (A-) An Intro to Econometrics course (with Calculus) (A-) A Structural Equations Class (Psychology) ( During this time, I was taking two classes a semester and working in a full time research capacity. The other courses I took were: Calc I (C-) Calc II (C+) Linear (Summer) Before I apply, I would also have finished Calc III, Math for Graduate Econ Students and by the time I enrolled, I would have had Econometrics I and Prob Theory. Based on this and the fact that I expect to get a Quant (80-85th percentile) and Verbal (70th percentile), do I have any hopes of studying statistics. I am really interested in application based programs. Do I have any chance of getting in? Are there any schools for which I seem like a good fit? Thanks!
