what kind of masters in math can i get in
i have a 3.13 gpa from my undergrad. My transcript is a bit of a thriller since i have really good grades in some courses and really bad grades in others. My research interest lies in a subfield of dynamical systems that is not pde/ode heavy. I am good with a 1-2 year masters without fundings since i have some savings myself. My concerns are regarding the fact that i don’t have an upward trajectory in math, but rather an on and off trajectory with noticeably bad grades in computation heavy courses. im unsure what does this mean to the grad admission committees. Upper year math Courses: got 80+ in differential geometry, differential topology, number theory, topology and logic. 90+ in functional analysis, complex analysis. Got 60 in PDE and 60 in ODE, and a 60 from second year analysis. 70s in abstract algebra. Research: I have a summer research project in my field of interest that does not have any outcome yet. Rec letters: Very famous prof in dynamics - neutral to okay letter, i update them on everything throughout the past year and they always reply. Great young researcher in my field of interest - presumably strong letter since i have been working with them throughout the summer.…
