Recommendation Letters: From capstone project supervisor (professor) From my direct manager (Biostatistician) From my manager's head (Big name in healthcare) Programs interested: Harvard University Johns Hopkins University Michigan - Ann Arbor Columbia University University of Minnesota Duke University MD Anderson University of Pittsburgh UT Health USC I will also select some school with lower ranking + interested professors My concerns is: 1. Compared to other applicants, I can see that I am lack of research experience. In my SoP, I'm wondering that if I should focus on describing the capstone project and research-similar experience in my work, or focus on describing clinical trial related experience 2. How are the programs listed above? Am I reaching too high? 3. Is there any other programs you would recommend based on my background and interest? Thank you very much!
