lol is that the movie about the guy who didn't want to graduate?
by the way what do you guise think about this though, sorry if i'm hijacking the thread but it's still on topic I guess:
do a Msc in math (as a pathway to PhD) -> Somehow land a job in industry for a year or two (hopefully, this is still doable) -> then apply for admission to a top PhD in Finance or Math
I have already started taking grad math courses (I'm a senior ugrad) , and I will have 12 cr of them when I graduate next spring. This, I think, will allow me to complete a Msc in one year instead of two.
not one to worry easily but I wouldn't want to appear "not serious" about doing a PhD.
