Thank you guys; these are all helpfull...

I'm an international student from Turkey and got acceptance from both Duke Econ (MA) and Michigan MAE. So far, I've been interested in "international trade" issues and "economic&econometric modelling" related with international trade. I want to enhance my skills in these areas and also get into "financial economics" issues. I also want to earn a PhD. degree in my later career; and now trying to pick the best school for me... Regarding; 1- Reputation in economics, 2- Living expense, 3- Social activity opportunities, which one would you suggest me to choose?? It is hard to get the right information from 14 hour-fly-distance and I really am looking forward to hearing your guidence... Thanks a lot...
