He has a phD in applied mathematics and works for a university lab and does research in mathematical economics, he has an on campus office also I believe. Just wondered if it would help me out at all, I think it will.

Thanks for the advice, there is a 4XX Math theory of games course I might take at my school next semester then. I received an e-mail from the department that I got in contact with to do research this summer, and the professor I will do research with is a research assistant at a lab as well as...

That takes some real dedication. I've been planning it out, and here is what I plan to fit in during my last year: Math: Discreet Mathematics, Complex Analysis, Linear Programs and Related Problems, Foundations of Geometry Econ: 6 Credits of Honors Econ (required), 6 Credits of Thesis...

I know a professor in the mathematics department at my school has done research on the spread of cancer cells using game theory. Interesting stuff.

Hey Pyrrhus, I appreciate your insight. I was honestly thinking the same thing. I know the difficulty of getting into a great graduate school for any subject letalone mathematics, and breaking in as an Econ major would be even tougher considering my lack of higher level math so far. I am...

Thank you for your input. I chose to take Analysis for the heck of it this semester, and I never really knew what people exactly meant when they suggested higher-level mathematics is nothing like the quantitative based calculus sequence. I may have found my interests too late but if I take...

Anyone have any advice at all? I'd appreciate anything I could get. I'm sorry my thoughts seem disconnected and jumbled, I guess I just needed to write them down.
