I am planning on applying to MS (maybe possibly PhD if there is a chance) programs in biostats and PhD programs in survey methodology.
 
	1. Do I have a chance at any PhD programs in biostats, if I can get my GRE score up?
 
	2. How badly is the C- in Mathematical Statistics going to hurt? My school won't let me retake it for a grade.
 
	Also I was accepted into on accelerated MS track at UMass Amherst last year
 
	Undergrad Institution: USNWR 30-35 LAC
 
	Major: Statistics and Psychology

	GRE: 156Q, 163 V, 4.0 Writing, taking again (164 Q on last practice test)
 
	Research/Work Experience: Summer research internship in biostats department at UMass Amherst, JPSM Junior Fellow at National Center for Education Statistics, research assistant in psychology lab, TA and grader in stats department
