Im applying for statistics PhD programs next year and I have a lot of undergrad research experiences but in different fields (biology, statistics, and computational social science) due to different summer research programs and transferring from a junior college. I have been responsible for statistical analysis and computational modeling in all experiences, and can demonstrate skills relevant to statistical research in my SOP, but I’m curious to know if I might be at a disadvantage compared to other applicants with more focused research experience?
