  1. Had an interview with CMU today for joint Stats Public Policy. Interviewer said they have four spots in the program. It seems like the only chance of getting off the waitlist is if someone turns their spot down.  I see two acceptances and one other waitlist on the results page (guessing there are more). Anyone thinking of turning their offer down?

  2. I’ve been accepted to a number of masters programs, of which I’m seriously considering the following:

     

    - LSE's Msc. in Economics (2 year programme)

    - Duke's MS in Economics and Computation (40% tuition waiver)

    - Columbia's MA in Economics

    - NYU's MA in Economics

    - Tufts' MS in Economics (80% tuition waiver plus TAship)

     

    I currently work as an analyst for a government agency with a pretty heavy research component. My goal is to eventually pursue a PhD, though I’m not as competitive a candidate as I’d like to be quite yet (missing certain courses, eg real analysis, and less than stellar grades during first half of college). The plan is to use this degree as a sort of Econ post-bacc, and maybe a launching point for a better RA position (I’ve applied to a ton, but never made it past the final round). Any thoughts on where I should go? Leaning towards Duke currently.
