Can you evaluate my profile for statistics PhD?

[statisticsphd]

Undergrad Institution: Top 10 Liberal Arts College

Major: Mathematics and Statistics
GPA:  3.89/4.00
Type of Student: International Male

Coursework (all A's otherwise noted): multivariable calculus,  proof-based linear algebra 1 (A-) and 2, diff eq,  real analysis, abstract algebra, signal processing, numerical analysis, measure theory (B), statistical modeling, calc-based probability, mathematical statistics, measure-theoretic probability, empirical process theory, nonparametric statistics

Research Experience:

- A 4-month RA at a policy institute, report published at the national policy bulletin.

- A summer RA at a well-known business school in my home country, joint appointment at Wharton, the paper is under review at a top business journal with my name mentioned in the acknowledgements.

- A summer REU at my home institution in signal processing and medical imaging where I developed a new algorithm, proved the convergence, and tested empirically via simulations.

- Ongoing (1.5 years) research in high-dimensional estimation and causal inference. Research project was initially proposed by a faculty mentor, but I have been taking the lead most of the times. Coauthoring a paper.

- Ongoing (4 months) research in permutation tests and nonparametric statistics, coauthoring a paper with a faculty mentor.

LORs:

- A math professor who advised a summer REU, it will be decent.

- A stats professor who is currently advising the permutation/nonparametrics research, he said he will write the best letter for me.

- An econ professor who is currently coauthoring a paper in high-dimensional estimation/causal inference, it will be great.

All the letter writers strongly believe my potential as a researcher.

Pertinent Activities or Jobs: 

- TA for ML class.

- TA for probability class.

- Two years military service.

 

Concerns:

- I'm an international student, so I guess I will be competing against international students coming from international institutions who have stronger math/stats background than me. I don't think my profile is competitive enough considering I will be in the international applicant pool.

- B in measure theory (yikes!), nothing much I can do now.

 

Do you think I have a shot at top 10 statistics and top 3 biostatistics PhD programs in the US given this profile? Thanks for your time!
