I am currently a 4th year undergraduate at a big ten school in the United States. I have just applied to PhD programs in Statistics. These programs are in the T-30 or so, and I would like to get honest feedback on my chances of getting into these programs. Furthermore, I would like advice on how I should proceed if I don't get in this cycle (I graduate in Spring 2023).
