  1. can someone tell me how many students are admitted into the MPA/ID program on average? thanks
  2. congratulations! would you mind sharing your background? thanks
  3. Hi Can any of the current applicants explain the difference between the two programs? From their website, it appears to me that very much is overlapping...however according to the employment statistics, more MIA graduates than MPA grads tend to get the careers I would be interested in.... please shed some light on this...thanks
  4. I have been looking for calculus classes here in UK..there's just one college in my city which offers evening classes and the course is Quantitative Economics Methods (maths and stats)- the course is similar to the one that I did in the first year of my econ degree...paying that extra £600 would teach me nothing new hence I'm reluctant to enrol.. I'm sure such classes may be popular in the States, but they dont seem to be available in the UK... something on my background --- graduated with a first class honours in economics, been abroad for last 13 years out of which 1 year working in South Asia with NGOs, and half a year in China for a language program. Worked in the UK during my econ degree for 3 years, including an economic consultancy for a few months; will also have 2 years of full time (banking) before starting my master's degree..speak 4 european languages fluently and Hindi at a basic level. Will take GMAT (saw on unis' websites that they accept GMAT too and i feel this is more convenient for international students) in the summer and hope for great Quant scores... in the event i cant find further classes, i'll probably apply without...any thoughts of how to make up for the gap? thanks
  5. Yes, I had a semester of differentiation and integration during my first year, but afterwards my course leaned towards econometrics, so i did not have the chance to take any further maths courses. If i get a high score on GRE/GMAT QUANT - can I then forgo taking additional math courses?...problem is, i've got a full -time banking job and huge time constraints so it would be difficult to take any classes whatsoever...
  6. hey, i've got a Bsc Econ degree with one course in Quantitative Methods for Economists (Maths & Stats); introductory econometrics and applied econometric techniques.... 3 courses - 2 semesters each...Is that enough or do I need to enrol in a local college to get more of this?
  7. I will, thanks a lot. Good luck with the rest of your applications..
  8. I'm looking to apply for fall 2012 and though HKS is on my list, I am not sure how to deal with the issue of leadership. I hear quite often that HKS is looking to recruit future leaders... I'm having problems here, so I am wondering how did you guys manage to convey leadership in your applications? some tips would be great thank you
