Hey all,
I'm curious about how y'all are deciding between different schools. What's your process? What factors do you consider, and why? (Yes, I probably should've considered this more before applying).
In my case, I'm having trouble deciding between the University of Maryland and the University of Utah. Hoping to do number theory (either algebraic or analytic), though I am okay with doing more algebra-related topics like algebraic geometry (which Utah is strong at). To my knowledge, neither school is particularly strong in number theory.
Any advice?
