I like the research at a couple of them, just didn't want to be overly specific. I feel the same way about R1 professors even if theyre not at the top four, particularly from experience with them as mentors/professors. I do have a couple more questions: 1. What required areas should I focus on? 2. What did you mean by "better prepared to start"? Would applied statistics research not be within the scope of an applied mathematics PhD program? | |
