  1. The answer to my question was the chances were slim to none. No one should even bother applying to an Econ PhD without a quantitative at least above 160 but really 163+ would be better. I have been rejected by all schools but FSU who I expect to also get rejected by. I got into a MS in Demography program that I will be attending then I will retake the GRE and try this all over again.
  2. Hello all, I am a soon to be graduate playing the waiting game with my Economics PhD applications. I only applied to 4 programs (Vanderbilt, Florida State, University of Kansas, and University of Houston), and I am starting to worry.

Dean of Arts and Sciences If I do have a chance at getting in, what are my chances of getting funding? Thanks!!!
