  1. I guess I'm being a bit paranoid. Thank you! This will save me some money
  2. Be Brutal, Be Honest. More detailed repost. I'm applying to UC Davis M.S. Biostatistics, UC Davis M.S. Statistics--data route, UC Santa Cruz-M.S. Scientific Computing and Applied Mathematics, and UC Santa Barbara M.S. in Statistics--Data Route. Undergrad GPA: 3.62/4 School: UCLA - domestic student, female (in a underrepresented minority group if this detail is relevant) Major: Computational Systems and Biology GRE: Quant: 163, Verbal: 158, AW:4.5 Undergrad GPA: 3.62/4 I have taken upper division statistics classes, computer science classes, and biology classes (including a lot of computational modeling classes). Also took bioinformatics and machine learning in genetics classes which focus on applied theory of statistics. I know python, R, sql, C++ and Bash I have generally good letters of rec: two of the professors know me as their student and on a personal level. They are both distinguished if this detail is relevant. I am working with on research the third. Research/experience: About 1.5 years, I have no publications but have experience writing statistical programs (my specific lab focuses on machine learning techniques to define complex relations etc etc). My personal history statement aligns well with my statement of purpose. My UCLA grades are as follows: INTEGRTN&INF SERIES MATH 31B : A- CALC OF SEVRL VAR MATH 32A: B LINEAR ALGBRA&APPLS MATH 33A: B DIFFERNTL EQUATIONS MATH 33B: B BIOLOGY OF CELLS MCD BIO 165A: A INTRODCTN-PROBABLTY STATS 100A: B+ INTRO-MATH STATS STATS 100B: B+ INTRO TO COM SCI 2 COM SCI 31: C+ INTRO TO COM SCI 2 COM SCI 32: B PRACTICAL COMPUTING EE BIOL C177: A MDLNG&SMLTN-BIO SYS C&S BIO M186: A DISCRETE STRUCTURES MATH 61: B INTR-BIOINFORMATICS COM SCI CM121: A- ML IN GENETICS COM SCI CM124: LINEAR MODELS STATS 100C: MACHINE LEARNING COM SCI: ALGORITHMS AND COMPLEXITY COM SCI: plus some others to be determined
  3. This process is pretty stressful. I'm applying to UC Davis, UC Santa Cruz, and UC Santa Barbra. Undergrad GPA: 3.62/4 School: UCLA (domestic student) Major: Computational Systems and Biology GRE: Quant: 163, Verbal: 158, AW:4.5 I have taken upper division statistics classes, computer science classes, and biology classes (including a lot of computational modeling classes). Also took bioinformatics and machine learning in genetics classes which focus on applied theory of statistics. I know python, R, sql, C++ and Bash I have generally good letters of rec: 2/3 of the professors know me very well and 1 I am working with on research. Research/experience: About 1.5 years, I have no publications but have experience writing statistical programs (my specific lab focuses on machine learning techniques to define complex relations etc etc). Personal statement and personal history statement are overall not bad. In fact my personal history statement aligns well with my statement of purpose and goals. I am mostly concerned that I do not come from a pure math or stats background even if my major incorporates both. I wish to go to grad school to continue what I have learned and expand upon my statistical knowledge and applications. Grad school apps feel like a shot in the dark. Any help is appreciated. I am really hopping I have a shot at one of these. Thank you I appreciate this greatly
