Schools Master's Programs in the US: Requirements and Funding

AI Thread Summary
Final year bachelor's students in mathematics seeking master's programs in the U.S. or Europe should research schools that offer strong applied and pure mathematics courses. Admission procedures vary by institution, so it's essential to check specific program requirements, including whether a subject GRE is necessary, as this can differ among schools. Additionally, prospective students should investigate funding opportunities, as many departments do not provide financial support for master's candidates. Preparing for the general GRE is important, and understanding each program's criteria will aid in the application process.

Hi!

I am a final year bachelor's student majoring in Math. I live in India, but I would like to go the the States or Europe for master's degree. I'd eventually like to do applied mathematics (I'm open to doing pure math at this stage). Can someone tell me which schools offer decent math master's courses and maybe brief me on what whole admission procedure will be like. I'm giving my general GRE test next week. Will I have to give my subject GRE even if I'm not applying for a Phd? Any advice is welcome.

Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
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. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
