You can consider your chance this way. There are so many chinese students studying biology in the states. Most of them know that they have to work as endless postdoc after their PhD study and are not satisfied with their pay. As a result, lots of them want to transfer to other major. Do you see any accounting phd student with pure biology background? Actually, there are lots of them working on master in statistics or accounting, which is much much easier to get in. Do you think you have any advantage over them?
