  1. I graduated a few years ago with a Statistics/Finance major. Here are my math-related issues: (1) I never took multi-variable calculus (I had a working understanding from high school, so just decided to skip it) (2) I took Linear Algebra, but got a B (it was senior year second semester and my priorities changed a little... regretting it now) However, here are some redeeming factors: (1) I took courses in Probability, Stochastic Processes, Intermediate Statistics (all of which had multi-variable and/or lin alg as a pre-req), and got an A in all. (2) Summer internship at a top quant hedge fund as a research analyst, job after graduating at a top prop shop as an assistant trader, and a current role as a trader in a smaller prop shop - did projects in all of them that require a working understanding of multi-variable and linear algebra. (3) TA'd an intro proof-based discrete math course in the comp sci department, in which I got an A (professor has committed to writing a strong letter). I am concerned that I might be dismissed, especially by top programs, simply because multi-variable calculus doesn't appear on my transcript, and I got a B in linear algebra. Do you think the redeeming factors are redeeming at all? I am also considering taking the Math Subject Test GRE if it helps make my case - I know what the topics/questions are like and am pretty sure I can do pretty well given some studying. Any honest feedback is appreciated!
