<p>I'm currently a junior in HS, and I'm very interested in studying mathematics/statistics in college. I'm leaning towards applied math rather than pure/theoretical.</p>
<p>Does anyone know anything about the differences between majoring in math in arts & sciences and statistics which i believe is only limited to stern? exactly how oriented is the statistics major towards business applications?</p>
<p>the reason i ask is i'm still not sure if i'd like to go into the business applications of math, and obviously a math major in arts & sciences would give me a wider range of options...but how practical/theoretical is the math major?</p>
<p>Thanks for the help in advance!</p>

<p>seriously, look at the majors, the requirements, etc.</p>
<p>I have…</p>
<p>i was just hoping that somebody at CC who has real-life experience might be able to offer their advice/opinion, which can be just as (if not more) valuable as reading about something on a website.</p>
<p>edit: plus, it’s not like I have any idea what a lot of those courses are actually about lol</p>
<p>That’s what course descriptions are for.</p>
<p>ok…</p>
<p>but course descriptions cant really help with finding out about people’s opinions and experiences?</p>
<p>sorry that i’m not being too helpful to your standards =(</p>
<p>but, for the most part we are all high schoolers here with hopes of going to NYU. </p>
<p>there are very few kids on this forum that actually go to NYU.</p>
<p>sorry</p>
