What does the admissions committee pay more attention to: graduate versus undergraduate, written versus published papers, research or teaching experience?
The admissions committee pays attention to your entire package. We generally give more weight to more recent coursework than coursework taken long ago. In terms of subjects, we give more weight to mathematics courses than to other courses, but we also pay attention to computer science, physics, courses from mathematical sciences, biochemistry, econometrics and other science courses. We also look at your overall GPA. We pay attention to your speaking and writing abilities, to your self-statement, and to your GRE and TOEFL test scores. Research experience of some sort is strongly encouraged but not required. We do not expect our incoming students to have published previously.
