( Is research experience important? © Can letters of recommendation be from economists as well as non-economists (but justified why him/her)? (d) How hard is it to get to a competitive MA program like LSE, UoT, BGSE, UCL? Are minimun requirements a good guide, or are they are looking for something additional too (as with PhD's)?
