biostat_prof. W.r.t analysis and math I took the following courses (all were A's except an A- in scientific computing) : Real Analysis I & II, Grad Complex Analysis, Grad Analysis I & II (Measure Theory and Functional Analysis respectively), Grad Applied Math I & II, Graduate Topology I & II, Grad Differential Geometry, Abstract Algebra I & II, Scientific Computing.

I'd GENERALLY agree with the tendency toward high GPAs for math majors. In my MS class we had about 10. Only 2 of use graduated. We had one Phd who graduated with just an MS (he went to a different PhD program). Of the initial 10, eight failed out. The other two of us had 3.8 and 3.97 respectively. The PhD who just took the MS also had a 3.97.

Anyone have any input? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

I think nchen5 from the Mathematicsgre.com board does.

Hi All, I got shut out over a year ago from PhD programs during my application season.Having now done time with a prestigious consulting group I'm pretty sure i do want to go for the PhD in stats. I'm bored to tears and I need a job where I can be consistently intellectually challenged. A school (ranked in the 40's according to US News) near me offers the doctoral level mathematical stats sequence at night (i.e. they use "Theory of Point Estimation" for the first semester and "Testing Statistical Hypotheses" for the second). I'm considering taking it. When I applied in 2012, one very highly ranked stats program indicated that while I had an outstanding grad GPA and very strong math background my lack of a formal statistics background was a big blight on my application. What I'm wondering is this: will it significantly improve my application in a year if I take this sequence? My stats are as follows: Undergrad Institution: Top 20 Private University(US News) Major(s): Finance & Accounting Minor(s): Mathematics GPA: 3.51 (3.87 Last 2 Years) Type of Student: DWM Grad Institution: Top 70 Math (US News) Concentration: MS in Pure Math GPA: 3.97 GRE General Test (Retake): Q: 167 (95%) V: 162 (90%) W: 4.0 (48%) GRE Subject Test in Mathematics (Retake): M: 840 (89%) Research Experience: 2 Summers With Office of Naval Research, probably doesn't count but I also work in mathematical and statistical modeling for a Big Data consulting firm Awards/Honors/Recognitions: N/A Pertinent Activities or Jobs: TA for management accounting sophomore year (prolly not applicable, but it is teaching exp) Any Miscellaneous Points that Might Help: 7 grad classes with all A's (Measure Theory, Functional Analysis, Topology, Algebraic Topology, Differential Geometry, Applied Math I&II, Research Course in Minimal Surfaces) Any Other Info That Shows Up On Your App and Might Matter: -GPA over the last two years of undergrad and all of grad school= 3.92 -Professors indicated my score on the PhD analysis qual (taken to receive my MS) was the highest my year and for a few years

This ended my grad school season. I've been soundly rejected everywhere but Yale where I've been waitlisted.

Did the ppl who said they saw the award page earlier actually see a letter or were they just able to log in?

When I was last logged on there was no award letter. Doubt I'm getting one. I can't even log on right now.

Now I can't log on to https://ndseg.asee.o...d/7240/overview

At least last time I checked it hadn't it may have now changed per the above message.

What? What does it say?

They told me that awards will be out by April 15th. My friend also called and they said that the awards are going out by the 15th even if the list comes over the wknd.

HA. I figured if my up-to-the-minute updates on the site got y'alls riled up, at the very least I owed making a call to ASEE to see what was really up.

Just called them. No awards have been issued. NO ONE can log-in. Everyone's safe for now

Are you logging into ndseg.asee.org/award? I can still log-in to the app site, but not the award site.

Ha ha. You were about to be tried for murder for giving me a heart attack!

You can actually log-in? Does the page say anything?

The log-in screen is now available, but info won't let me in.

Argh. Just FUCKING TELL US ALREADY! At least no awards have been posted on the results section of the cafe.

Can't log in either. Fail.

Log in is now open.

Screen changed now. It's now: The 2012 season awards system is not yet open.

So the award site won't even let me access the log-in for the award site. Anyone think this is about to go down?

I still can and chances are I'm getting rejected.

NSWC Dahlgren twice. What kinda disciplines did they mainly recruit from at Indian Head?
