I'm finishing my third year in the math program and the University of Toronto. After my fourth year, I'd like to do a PhD in mathematics. This is a rather open-ended question, but what are the best grad schools for this?

Many of the answers you're looking for can be found by fishing around on their home pageGreenApple said:Hi,people.
I am a student in China.I am a freshman.
I find algebra and foundations of math (mainly set theory and logic for the moment) so fantastic to me.And I learn fast and have a strong willing to do math research after undergraduate study.
I wish I could go to Berkeley for graduate study and I wish you Berkeley guys could help me.
What textbooks are being used for the undergraduate students?What quality do I have to have to be admitted to the graduate school at Berkeley?Is it harder for a non-US student to be admitted?
Any guidance will be appreciated.
Oops didn't notice this. Send me a message next year and we can kick it.BryanP said:Yeah (next year I will be a junior)
Well I do not want to derail this thread, so to the original threadmaker, I would like to wish good luck in whichever place you decide to go to.
When searching for the best grad schools for a Math PhD, it is important to consider factors such as the school's reputation in the field of mathematics, the strength of their graduate program, the research opportunities available, the faculty expertise and research interests, and the location and cost of attending the school.
The strength of a graduate program in mathematics can be determined by factors such as the number and quality of faculty members, the success of their graduates in obtaining jobs or furthering their education, the availability of research opportunities, and the resources and support provided to graduate students.
While attending a top-ranked school can certainly be beneficial, it is not the only factor to consider when choosing a grad school for a Math PhD. Other factors, such as the faculty expertise and research opportunities, may be more important in your overall success as a graduate student.
There are several resources available for researching grad schools for a Math PhD, including online rankings and directories, university websites, and advice from current or former graduate students in the field. It can also be beneficial to attend graduate school fairs or conferences to gather information and speak with representatives from different programs.
To determine if a graduate program in mathematics is a good fit for you, it is important to research the program thoroughly and consider factors such as the curriculum, faculty expertise and research interests, and the overall culture and environment of the program. It may also be helpful to reach out to current graduate students or alumni to gain insight into their experiences at the program.
