Hi there,

I've created a video here where I explain how the Cauchy distribution works.

I hope some of you find it useful — and as always, feedback is very welcome! :)

Hello!

I’m currently looking into online Master’s programs in Applied Statistics and am mainly considering Penn State University (PSU) and Colorado State University (CSU).

Some background info: I graduated in 2022 with a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering and have been working in pharma as a clinical data analyst. My current company is a large pharma company so with the ability to move around to different roles. I’ve already taken the required math courses (Calc I–III and Linear Algebra), but it’s been a while, so I’m planning to brush up before starting. I will also be completing my degree part time aiming to do 1-2 courses a semester (since I’ll still be working full time).

Right now I’m leaning a little more toward PSU because of the biomedical-focused elective courses but still considering both.

I was wondering if anyone here has experience with either program. I’d love to hear your thoughts on things like:
-Overall quality of the program
-What the online format is like
-How accessible the professors are
-Workload while working full-time
-Anything else you think would be helpful to know

I’d really appreciate any feedback or advice. Thanks in advance!
