MSc Statistics

Hi everyone, I'm currently in my penultimate year at university and looking at a postgrad course in statistics at a top 10 uni. I'm just unsure as to whether I would be able to cope with the workload at a high ranked institution and the course itself?
Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

Only you can really answer that question. Do you like working hard? Do you enjoy maths?

I did a few masters-level module in my degree and they were very challenging. As long as your maths is tight and you have a good work ethic you'll do alright. You'll probably also be expected to do a dissertation, which involves a lot of self-study and initiative, although you'll sometimes be given a list to pick from that the lecturers have drawn up.

Yes, I am doing a maths degree so I do enjoy my maths and I'd say I have a good work ethic too, may I ask which course you studied ? And which masters level modules did you choose ?
