Clark | @Gerald: I am not at Harvard or Princeton (anymore!), but in our program along with GRE scores, we look just as carefully at the student's undergraduate coursework. We want to see both that they are well-prepared in things like algebra, topology and analysis and also that they have done well in at least one graduate level course (or the closest possible equivalent their program offers). | |
