>>don't have to work with your brainlet peers
Wrong. They're starting to require presentations and group work in even low-level math classes now.
It's all to help women and chads.
Jose Jones
yes, doing the same in a few years desu
Xavier White
PhD is quite different brainlet. Yes, math is a comfy grad school experience. I love it.
Logan Collins
>tfw sick RenTech job right after graduation
Daniel Brooks
unless you have 20+years of experience 100k at best
Tyler Hall
Heh heh. I'm finishing my MS Math and would be willing to pay good money NOT to do a PhD in this field.
You don't have any clue how shitty it is to work in pure abstraction for years until you do it. Just learn statistics or programming and you'll make better money.
Adrian Nguyen
I think PhD in statistics is much more god-tier than PhD in math. Just look at placements for statistics
Robert Diaz
Math has always been like that, get a brain. For some of my highest-level grad classes we actually have to teach all the material to each other in class and the professor oversees us, correcting us or telling us to clarify/elaborate. That's because lectures aren't a good idea for really advanced math.
Ian Barnes
It's because basically the only job you can get with a Math degree is teaching and they want to train you for that and weed out any shy people (who of course would not be good as teachers).
Oliver Gray
Surprisingly PhD in biostat makes even more than normal stats. But tbph if you want to be worth your salt as a PhD statistician (in 2017) you probably need an MS Math or equivalent. You aren't really gonna understand measure theory and advanced probability without the fundamentals of topology and analysis.
Gavin Diaz
The most common degree hired by Goldman Sachs is a math PhD. It sounds like you have that impression because you don't know what a math PhD involves, the academic job market, or the forefront of private-sector quantitative jobs.
Leo Thomas
I agree. I think most students go in having taken grad-level analysis, but I might be wrong. I know ugrad analysis is a prerequisite, not sure about topology
Sebastian Moore
you're retarded and don't know shit about the math phd life t. phd mathfag student
Asher Smith
>basically the only job you can get with a Math degree is teaching lmao i love that people unironically believe this
Juan Barnes
>t. undergrad
Levi Richardson
>t. tradesman
Christian Gutierrez
>t. Brainlet
Samuel Davis
uh i'm a phd student in math but thanks for the projection
Leo Robinson
Art major 200k starting any job I want
Jose Clark
I just started my graduation at biophysics.
Aaron Walker
comfy is just a code word for boring desu
Jaxon Nguyen
Incorrect.
Mason Cruz
I'm finishing a PhD in a mix of applied and theoretical comp sci in 6 weeks and wished I had done purely theoretical stuff with a better supervisor, or just entered the job market.
