Hi everyone,
I have recently been thinking about pursuing a mathematics degree at the Postgraduate level but unfortunately I feel I lack both the credentials and proper training/background and I was seeking some advice on how I might acquire it.
My undergraduate degree is in Computer Science (from a not so good institution where I feel the 3.7+ GPA is meaningless) and recently I have been pursuing a part time MSc. degree in bioinformatics which is nearing completion however it really is not to my liking.
Is it possible to transition out of this area into mathematics in some manner? I have considered taking perhaps a year to prepare the GRE subject test in mathematics but it does not seem representative of problem solving that is done as an undergraduate in preparation (or not) for graduate education.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
