  1. Was your interview request personal? im thinking my duke hopes are gone now
  2. I see that some schools have sent out interview requests for programs i applied to. If i didnt get a request yet, does that mean out?
  3. When do statistics phd decisions usually come out? The application dates seem earlier for statistics then other science and math graduate programs, so Im wondering if that means the decisions come out sooner.
  4. What are my chances would be of getting into a statistics phd program? Undergrad Institution: top 50 private Major(s): Physics, Math Minor(s): GPA: 3.88 Type of Student: male, White, Domestic GRE General Test: Not taken yet, took a practice and got 86 and 91st percentiles for reading/math respectively, not planning on taking subject test Programs Applying: PhD in Statistics Research Experience: 2 summers of research at home university in physics, one paper in review, maybe another one or two to follow (not first author) Awards/Honors/Recognitions: Deans List, Pi Mu Epsilon Honors Society,Honors College Pertinent Activities,Jobs: TA, Tutoring Letters of Recommendation: I'm assuming they will be pretty good Computing Skills: R,Python, Latex, SQL, limited linnux, Applying to Where: NC State University of Connecticut Columbia Northwestern Boston University UNC UCLA Duke Is this a good list? Any advice would be really helpful. Thank you
  5. Hey all, I am planning on applying to graduate school in statistics. Would you recommend taking the math subject test? Thank you
  6. I'm new to this site so please forgive any breach in protocol. I am currently a math and physics double major at my undergrad institution, which has a small grad program, but I am not particularly interested in attending there. I plan on applying to phd programs in statistics, despite no research in mathematics, although I do have research experience in physics. I also was not able to take any graduate courses because of the double major. I have yet to take my GRE's, though I expect decent scores on general, and I am not sure whether I will take the subject. My gpa is a 3.88, a little higher for math, a little lower for physics. My letters should be really good, although none will come from statistics professors. My question is, is this an issue? Also, what schools would be attainable given the information provided, how many schools to apply to (ie; safety, target, reach). Thank you.
