Hey Guys,
I originally posted my profile on the master thread but no one responded. I was hoping I get evaluations for MFE's. I've also heard of MS/PhD in Stats going quant and doing well. I'd kinda like to do the Stats PhD as I'd get to choose between academia and private sector. Nonetheless this evaluation is for an MFE. Any input is appreciated!
