Hello, I am new to this website but hope someone will be able to help out. I'm looking to apply to masters programs in statistics in a couple years after some work experience and will be graduating next year. Undergrad institution: Mid tier, large public state school (top 75 in US News) Majors: Business Analytics, Mathematics Year: Senior, graduating in May 2019 GPA: 4.0/4.0 Programs Interested In: MS in Statistics Type of Student: Asian American Male Relevant Courses: Math - Multivariable Calculus, Introductory Linear Algebra, Theory of Probability, Linear Optimization, Differential Equations, Fourier Series + Boundary Value Problems (with some PDEs), Math Reasoning (proof writing). I placed out of Calc I and II by taking AP Calculus BC. Business Analytics - Risk Modeling, Statistical Methods (second semester statistics course), Data Management, Decision Analytics under Uncertainty, Operations Management Taking this year: Math - Linear Algebra, Real Analysis I, Theory of Statistics; Business Analytics - Time Series Modeling, Investment Modeling (both classes use R) GRE: Will take next year Recommendation Letters: Aiming for 3 letters from professors who I have taken several classes with and/or been a TA/grader for. Two are math professors and one is a business analytics professor. Academic Experience: TA for Operations Management (an optimization methods course for business students), Grader for Intro Linear Algebra Professional Experience: Data analysis intern at small tech company, data science intern at Fortune 100 company Coding Experience: R, SQL, Python Schools interested in: UCLA Texas A&M UNC NC State CMU Concerns: -Few proof intensive courses (will change next year with Linear Algebra and Real Analysis, but still might not be enough) -Math is not my first major. I added it recently after liking the other classes I've taken. -Business Analytics major might be hard to explain. I have taken various classes (listed above) heavily using probability, statistics, and optimization within the business school, though. I would really appreciate any comments/advice on my profile and how competitive I would be for the schools I listed. Thank you in advance.
