I got into a math PhD program! Since my experience with my math grad application process wasn't as cut and dry as having something lined up after undergrad, I thought it would be a good time to share my math grad school application process overview.
Even though I was accepted to my top school, things didn't workout the first time I applied to mathematics PhD programs and I had to figure out what I could do with my math major in the interim. I definitely struggled with my confidence in my mathematical ability and questioned whether or not I should get a PhD in math. That internal uncertainty pushed me to get a full time job and after a little over a year and a half of working that job, I am now here. On the path to begin pursuing a math PhD this coming fall.
I wanted to make this video both to let you know the good news, and to also go through and show that things don't always work out the way you want. Also, sometimes taking a break is worthwhile. I don't talk about this too much in the video, but in my case taking a break meant focusing on math less, and working like a mad man at my job to figure out my finances and get me into a position mentally and financially where I could apply for grad school again with the certainty that, yes, a math PhD was the right route for me. Hopefully this video communicates that, even though it can be hard to apply after being out of undergrad for a while, it is possible, and being rejected the first time around doesn't mean that you can't try again and get in to a program you're excited about.
