  1. Thank you for the reply. I will definitely take your advice into account!
  2. Type: International Asian female Bachelor&Master Institution: A top 100 university(QS) in East Asia (+studied abroad in a Big 10 school) Major: Statistics GPA: Approximately 3.7/4.0 for undergrad and 3.9/4.0 for master Courses taken: Mathematics : Calculus (A+), Linear Algebra (A-), Analysis (P), Real Analysis (A+) Statistics : Mathematical statistics, etc. I got A’s or almost all statistics courses Research experience: 1. A short research about cancer prediction (only two months, no paper) 2. A project about developing algorithms to predict air pollution (something like that). 3. About to write a master thesis in biostatistics Other experience: 1. One internship about deep learning (start-up) 2. Part-time statistical consultants 3. TA for several courses GRE: 332+3.5 TOEFL: I haven’t took it yet. (Hopefully 100+) LOR: 3 I think my problem is I am not focusing on one thing. I did a mix of everything and none of them was very strong. I am hoping to apply for a phd in biostatistics, and I wonder what level of schools I can get in. I am thinking about UCONN, UGA, UPITTS, OSU, PENN STATE, UColorado, Tulane, UMASS, etc. I am also interested in UWM, BU, UNC-Chapel Hill, but I think they are out of my league. Maybe a statistics program will be better for me because my experiences are not very focused? I appreciate any advice in advance!
  3. I am attending a pretty good university in Asia (top 3 in the country and top100 in QS ranking) and I'm applying for PhD in Biostat in US. However, in my department, except for my advisor, I'm not close with any professors, nor have I done research with them. But I did a research in a hospital from a university that is not famous nor high-ranked. I'm still keeping in touch with the professor (who is a doctor(MD. PhD) without any statistics background). Will it be helpful if I get a rec letter from the doctor instead of a random professor in my department?
  4. Thank you for the response. I very appreciated it. I do have a bachelor and will have a master in Stat in a university in Asia. Verbal is very hard for me tbh and I expected to have a higher score in quant but the exam was pretty tricky. Since I'm in a master program rn school is very busy for me so I don't think I will have time to retake it. I think I will just submit this score then. Thank you.
  5. I need some advice on GRE. I'm applying for PhD in Stat/Biostat 2023 Fall. My GRE score is 322(V 156 Q166) (haven't got the official score since I just took it last week). Should I give it a second try? I don't plan to apply for the top schools like the Ivy League or UW. Will it be a minus if I submit this score?
  6. Hi. I wonder if it's necessary to take Real Analysis before applying for a PhD program in Stat/Biostat. I'm doing a master in Stat(undergrad major is also stat) in a pretty good uni in Asia and planning to apply for a PhD program in US. Besides all the Stat courses required for my major, I took linear algebra, calculus and analysis(undergrad). I wonder if it's necassary to take Real Analysis since I'm not confident in getting an A in that course. What if I get a B or even lower score? Would it better if I don't take it at all that getting a bad score.
