[Profile Evaluation For Fall 2021 (Stats PhD)]

Thank you guys for the advise. Yea, I think I will try taking the real analysis course too. 

[Profile Evaluation For Fall 2021 (Stats PhD)]

Hi all,  I look for the advices about my profile for applying Ph.D. in Statistics in Fall 2021. I am so nervous about the incoming application season since my GRE score in Verbal part is pretty low. I took it many times but my score didn't go up. Currently, I am master student majoring in Statistics in the US University.

Type of Student: International Asian Male
Applying to: Statistics PhD

Undergrad Institution: Top 5 public university in my country
Undergraduate Major: Mathematical Statistics
Undergraduate GPA: 3.8

Graduate Institution: University in the US (Ranked between 11 - 20, according to the USNew)
Graduate GPA: Currently 4.00
Graduate Major: Statistics

Work Experience: I worked as a Data Scientist for 1 year

GRE General Test: Q167 V147 W3.0
I also have a question here that should I retake it?
GRE Mathematics: Not taken

Undergraduate Relevant courses:
Math: Calc I (A), Calc II (A), Calc III (A), Calc IV (A), Fundamental Concepts of Mathematics (Learning about how the proof) (A), Linear Algebra (A), Differential Equation (A), Introduction to Numerical Analysis (Pass; I audited this course)
Stats: Intro to Regression (A), Design of Experiment (A), Categorical Data Analysis (A), Introduction to Multivariate Analysis (A), Probability Theory (B+), Statistical Inference (A), Introduction to Stochastic Process (A), Time Series Analysis (A), Statistical Quality Control (B+), Statistical Simulation (A)
Others: Data Mining (A), Data Science Practicum (A), Operation Research (A), Research Methodology (B+)

** Calc IV at my university is studying about the Sequence and Sequences and series of functions, uniform convergence,  tests for convergence of improper integrals, vector-valued functions of several variables and surface integrals.

Graduate Relevant courses:
Stats: So far, I have taken Regression, Multivariate Analysis, Probability Theory, Statistical Inference, Design of Experiment and Bayesian Modelling (All of them are Master's level)
I think that I will take the Regression, Statistics Inference (Ph.D levels) and some Computational Statistics course.

Research Experience: I have done a research with the Statistics Professor for 8 months about the EM-Algorithm.
Recommendation Letters: 1 of them will be from my professor who I work with and the other 2 will be from the professors who I took his course at get A/A+.  

Planning on Applying to:
Actually, I wish for Standford, UCBerkely, UMich, North Carolina State, Colorado State. However, I'm open to all. I just wonder that what should be some good safety university for me?

Thank you in advance for your suggestions
