[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does universities distinguish between a "Pure Math" applicant vs a "Applied Math" applicant? Are they both hard majors to apply for?[/quote] Yes. At some colleges Applied Math is housed in the College of Engineering/Applied Sciences and Pure Math is housed in the College of Arts and Sciences/Liberal Arts.[/quote] Is one more competitive than the other? If so, which one?[/quote] It probably varies. E School admissions are tough most places right now, so maybe Applied Math is a harder admit than Pure Math. However, there are plenty of top colleges where the Arts & Sciences school or Sciences school also is a hard admit. Either Math is more employable if combined with some relevant minor. That minor might be CS, engineering, physics, or something else -- depending on the student's intended career field. [/quote]
