[What are my chances for getting into a Economics PhD program]

I am trying to be very realistic. I have a terrible UG GPA, an ok Grad GPA, and a pretty good GRE score. I know a top 50 isn’t for me. But, do you think between 50-85 is doable? I am thinking UCONN, Kansas, Utah, etc. 

Undergrad: Economics

Undergrad GPA: 2.9

Masters: Economics

Graduate GPA: 3.52

GRE:

V: 160

Q: 164

LOR: Masters Thesis Advisor and a Masters Committee member

Years out of Masters program: 1

Work Experience: Entrepreneur (owned business in college), Development Loan Officer, Treasury Risk Associate at a Multinational bank

Thanks for any replies. I appreciate your time. 

 

[Economics MS to Sociology PhD]

After browsing, I was hoping I could get some help. 

I received my BS in economics. I then enrolled into an MS in economics. I will graduate next semester and have realized how much more interested I am in the qualitative side of economic research and am interested in pursuing a PhD in sociology.  So the question is, will my economics background be a positive for admission, or will it be something I need to explain why I am switching course. 

I would appreciate any advise. Also, for more context I will be applying to a variety of PhD programs throughout the top 50. My BS and MS are from the same state school with a heterodox economics program.
