<p>I’m looking to do a PHD in mathematics at Princeton, MIT, Havard or Stanford but I’m not sure of my chances.</p>
<p>I completed my undergrad in pure maths at Oxford university (BA and masters) 5 years ago and since then have been working in Investment banking, but my main passion has always been maths.</p>
<p>I’m not sure of UK university’s and oxford in particular’s reputation in the US, and also since I have taken such a long break in studying, will I still be likely to be accepted?</p>
