Thomas,
I just graduated from a biostatistics department. My advice to you is to
apply to the schools you want and take the Biology/Chemistry/Genetics
courses once you are enrolled into the biostatistics department. Most 1-st
year biostat courses will not require advance science knowledge. Once i

Thanks for the replies. It was the difference between the adjusted R2
calculations that I was concerened about. I have also tried the
calculations in SAS JMP and that does not output R2 or adj R2 for
regressions without a constant term. Maybe this is a more appropriate

I hope that was said in jest. Salaries for beginning MS in applied statistics have
been making
large gains in the past few years, and there is a huge number of job openings for
