  1. Hi, Please, please take two minutes two respond to this post. My due date is today and I am a little trapped here. I'm interested in a Phd in Education, with a focus on measurement, research methodology, impact analysis, economics of education, development and / or quant. policy analysis. Yet, I'm sure I do not want to study in an Econ. Department. I have taken the GRE two times, reaching the same maths score on both tests. However, my language and my AW scores differ: 1) L 157 (73%); AW 5.5 (96%) 2) L 163 (91%); AW 4.0 (49%) For some of the schools I am applying to I can only report one GRE score, from one test date. I have no clue as to which score to choose. Could you provide your thoughts as to which score would be considered better? Thank you very much!!
  2. Hi everyone, First of all - thanks so much for this great forum. I have read a lot of great posts and I'd be super happy if you could help me as well. I'm interested in a PhD in Education, with a focus on measurement, research methodology, impact analysis, economics of education, development and / or quant. policy analysis. Yet, I'm sure I do not want to study in an Econ. department. I have a question concerning the quantitative GRE score - I have asked in the education sub-section but decided I should rather ask here again. I know it's a "am I competitive"-bleg but please, please do comment - I've tried to find out more online but couldn't find any information. What is a minimum quant. GRE score for these programs / concentrations? I know the scores for education programs and don't find them too crazy. However, how does this change for these more econ-y / maths-oriented programs / concentrations? Most econ departments from these schools ask for some ~166, and more on the ibt. What would be a min. quant. score for the programs below? SHIPS - Economics Harvard - Quant. Policy Analysis in Education NYU Steinhardt - Int. Education, Int. Development Education TC - Economics and Education UC Berkeley - Quant. methods and evaluation Penn - Policy Research Evaluation and Measurement MIT Urban Studies and Planning - Int.Development Group Thanks a lot!!
  3. Thanks to everyone - this is very helpful. The programs look good and by looking at Lawrence Picus' CV, I furthermore came across RAND's PhD program. As to the GRE, I'm thinking about posting the question in the GRE forum, but I'll probably retake it. Thanks again!

I'm interested in a Phd in Education, with a focus on measurement, research methodology, impact analysis, economics of education, development and / or quant. policy analysis. Yet, I'm sure I do not want to study in an Econ. Department. I have two questions: 1) What would be great programs on either the East Coast or the West Coast that may fall in this category? Here is my homework; I've come across SHIPS - Economics Harvard - Quant. Policy Analysis in Education NYU Steinhardt - Int. Education, Int. Development Education TC - Economics and Education UC Berkeley - Quant. methods and evaluation Penn - Policy Research Evaluation and Measurement MIT Urban Studies and Planning - Int.Development Group What programs would you add? How do these programs compare? Is there anyone with experience out there? 2) My "am I competitive"-bleg. Please, please do comment. What is a minimum quant. GRE score for these programs?
