Thank you for your encouraging reply! I wasn't sure how I would fare coming from a relatively small university. Also, I forgot to mention (and I could not edit my original post) that I have also taken a Numerical Analysis class. Thank you! guthrie

Hello all! I am interested in applying to a statistics PhD program for Fall 2012. I would like to ask for some of you to look over my credentials and give me some feedback on anything that I could do to improve them. Also I would greatly appreciate any school recommendations for which I would qualify. Undergrad School: Murray State University Major: Mathematics Overall GPA: (currently) 3.69 Major GPA: 4.0 Completed Classes: Calculus I, II, and III Linear Algebra Mathematical Reasoning Mathematical Statistics I and II Advanced Calculus I and II Differential Equations I am currently taking Mathematical Modeling I and Intro to Topology. Also I will be taking Applied Statistics and Intro to Time Series Analysis (if this latter class is offered) in the spring. Also of interest, I have taken a course in Visual Basic programming, C++ programming, and will be taking a database class next semester as well. Research: Currently working on an NSF funded project through a program called BioMaPS. We will be finishing this up soon and giving several presentations over it, but will probably not be published be the time I will be applying. I have yet to take the GRE, but will be doing that soon. Also I have no internship or work experience relating to statistics. Once again I welcome any comments and I thank you for any input. -Guthrie
