Schools Grad School Abroad: US, Canada, or Europe?

AI Thread Summary
Choosing the right location for graduate school is crucial, with the US, Canada, and Europe being popular options. The US is highlighted as a strong choice due to its numerous prestigious universities, particularly in mathematics, which attract a significant number of international applicants. However, the competitiveness of admissions and the vast number of institutions can make the decision complex. Cambridge in the UK is also recommended for its academic reputation. Ultimately, the choice should align with individual academic qualifications and career goals, considering the diverse opportunities available in each region.

If you have chance, go to Cambridge.
 
The UK.

Thread 'Applied Math PhD candidate but I hate group theory'

TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science.
