Can someone specify some certification courses covering the above topics which can compensate for the lacking in maths/econ courses?I do know I like research , but till now most people have suggested me to go for a Masters rather than a Phd. is there any hope for me to get into a PhD econ program with this profile?Kindly suggest some schools I can apply to for both Phd & Masters in econ/ Financial economics where I might have a chance!Thank You!
