I think the competition in MESc is not as strong as it is in MEM. Moreover, MESc is a research oriented program while MEM is more on the professional side. So, given your profile you have a decent chance. Yeah I think its a decent SoP. I am banking on my LORs and SoP. Moreover, I think taking range of courses from social sciences, mathematics and sciences would help my case.

Hi guys. Good to see a 2016 yale fes thread. I'm applying to mem fall 16 and hopefully we can share our thoughts here. Firstly, as far as I know, the sop is the most important part of application. I wrote to danielle, member of adcom, and was told the adcom looks at the sop, lors and professional experience. The gre is not a big factor considering lot of applicants are in industry. Also, the diversity of coursework is advantageous. Ideally successful candidates have a double degree or double major. Coming to the sop, there are three to four topics which one should mention as understood from various blogs and websites. 1) how did you get interested in environment and related discipline? 2) what have you done in that area? 3) what are your future goals and how do you think you'd be able to contribute to the field after yale? 4) how would yale help you achieve your goals? sharing my profile: BA and MA Econ from top 5 indian uni. Undergrad gpa - 3.5/4.0 (by wes standards). Apart from economics, took courses in anthropology, sociology, history, mathematics, statistics, political science, environment studies. Science graduate in high school but don't think that will count. MS quantitative economics from top European university. (Gpa 3.7/4.0) Advanced level (phd) courses in micro and macroecon, topology, probability and econometrics, One course in management and one in law. Lor - one upenn phd, one princeton phd and director of top ten energy research centre (also my thesis supervisor) and the last one from a top Canadian uni phd. Almost no professional experience but have 3 years of research and ta experience, mostly part time. One paper on review at leading energy policy journal and two paper presentation at international climate change conferences. The lack of professional experience is my only concern. Hopefully my research compensates for it. Gre - 154 v 163 q awa 5.0 I dont have lot of hope but my supervisor suggested i go for it. Hopefully i get lucky.
