Mine still says "In Review". My application did not go complete until late January 2013. I assume most of those people invited to the orientation week had their applications completed by Nov or early Dec.

What's up guys. I applied to OSU's masters program in statistics late January. Did anyone else? If so, share stats. 3.2ish gpa in BA (Mathematics) 730 Quant/530 Verbal/3.5 Iraq veteran; former highschool math teacher, mailman, data analyst for state government. Did anyone else not include the official reference letter form with their application? I had it for 1 letter and it was missing for the other two. The lady I spoke with in the stat office said they can accept them at their discretion. At the online application site it says "No reference form" next to my recommenders' name. I d

How about I replace the second paragraph with this. My engineering background plays a big part in why I want to study statistics.

Don't mention.

If you are looking for a date--Yes. If you are trying to get into graduate school--No.

Some of your sentences are not. 1) While many of these were short term projects, geared towards solving a hot-button issue quickly. (3rd paragraph) 2)Radiation detection is a probabilistic process, and I relied on the Poisson distribution to help quantify low level radiation measurements. (2nd paragraph) ****That comma is not needed****** The content of your essay is really good. You need to improve the flow and grammar. I am applying to Ohio's MS Statistics program; hope to see you there.

I agree with the above. -Stay positive -Research Computer Science via google, find a field you love, discuss areas of field you would like to study and your unique applications. This will require some creativity. -Ensure each paragraph has atleast 4 sentences. Your intro is short and elementary.

Hello. I will be submitting this tomorrow. This is the 3rd draft so I hope it meets with everyone's approval. I am going for MS Statistics. MBS 7107 I am pursuing graduate studies in applied statistics because the ability to analyze data and forecast associated trends has wide application. With a MS in applied statistics, I will be well prepared to extract meaningful descriptive data, analyze that data backwards and forwards for trends, and provide stakeholders with the necessary information to complete their task. As a result of the University of Iowa having a solid statist

Thanks for all of the feedback guys. The apostrophe abuse was very helpful. I cannot believe I made so many mistakes. I am applying to a MS Statistics: Actuarial Sciences concentration program. The SOP prompt follows:

Does the lack of posts mean my SOP is good as is? Please review. I need to submit my applications by Friday (1/4/13)

Enjoy. I am pursuing graduate studies in applied statistics’ because the ability to analyze data and forecast associated trends has wide application. With a MS in applied statistics, I will be well prepared to extract meaningful descriptive data, analyze that data backwards and forwards for trends, and provide stakeholders with the necessary information to complete their task. As a result of the University of Iowa having a solid statistics program to complement their actuarial science program, I will be able to obtain a thorough understanding of the statistics behind the tools of a

Can a couple of people please read my SOP and provide feedback so I can apply to U of I. The link goes to another thread within GradCafe.Thank You.

I really need 2 people--atleast--to review my revised SOP above.

Merry Christmas. Go here and read my SOP please. You want to concentrate on the revision which is the last post within the topic. Thank You. MBS_7107 <-------------GO HERE

Here is the REVISION. I am applying to a MS Statistics program with an actuarial sciences concentration. Although it is geared towards aspiring actuaries, I hope to take many stat classes to make it more of an applied stat degree--more regression, modeling, inference, uncertainty,...classes. ********************************Beginning******************************************************** I am pursuing graduate studies in applied statistics’ because the ability to analyze data and forecast data trends has wide application.
