Tips for applying to graduate programs in mathematics

[@IamJacksColon4]

thank god the selection process in europe is different. writing an essay on why you want to do a masters is ridiculous. people wanting to improve themselves is obvious no explanation needed.

[@nakedshadows]

But most of the top programs are in the US

@@nakedshadows That doesn't take away from the valid point he made. It really is a good point.

[@LuizSMatos-dr9tz]

supply and demand plays a role here.

[@lolliz100]

That's actually a very good point and I agree. Unfortunately ,.. when the amounts of applications surpasses the availability of spaces...additional barriers to entry gets added,...hence "just wanting to improve yourself" usually isn't enough.

[@rajatsharma6137]

very nicely explained. I wish I had a teacher like her with such deep and meaningful insight.

''I would love to find a better proof for the four colour theorem'' LOL nice

[@pookz3067]

Lova and kronheiner and mrowka have a program working toward just that haha

[@garyzhang4306]

It needs a better proof. I don't trust our future machine overlords.

She is a humorous people with sharp mind. Love this speech

This is incredibly helpful even 10years later. Thank you so much for uploading this.

Looking back at this. She gave the best advice when she said "talk to second year grad students". Qualifying exams hunts second year phD students.

[@ninosawbrzostowiecki1892]

Wow, she looks so young and has so much behind her.

One senior Math lecturer I knew was working on a better proof of the 4 Colour Theorem after he retired only a few years ago. 😅

If the grad program does not give you money, they’re not serious about you.

[@farruhhabibullaev5316]

GRE is not accepted anymore by so many grad schools.

How can doing a senior thesis help an application that is due in the autumn of the senior year?

[@2-InfinityNBYND]

Is subject GRE still accepted? I think even General GRE is almost dead

[@ankurc]

GPA?

[@yikeslikes4457]

I thought I was the only one confused about gpa missing in her talk

[@bobirnasimov9421]

I wonder why she said GRE and not the GMAT

[@Nelson_504]

From what I've learned, the GMAT is requested for MBA (Master's in Business Administration) programs, whereas the GRE is basically for all the other Master's degree programs.

"..we just don't look at applic'ns below there unless there's some compelling reason.." i.e. check the right boxes. but you'll still get to complain that you're being discriminated against :)

and btw, i got a 68% on gre. [real analysis and abstract algebra questions pummeled me.] was told (on message boards) that unless you're in 90s, you have no chance of top-tier grad school. and if you don't get top-tier grad school, you have no chance of becoming faculty.

[@voroldrwarfff8858]

@@gregy1570 The problem is that lesbian women of color just don't apply to maths programs in the first place, and that's why affirmative action exists. It's a statistical question initially, so you should understand that, but since you're too dumb to hit more that 68% in your maths exams, I don't expect you to get it. Get lost justifying your individual mediocrity with politics.
