(I enroll in the courses credits celling every semester!) I have been trying the econometrics of the Honor version and web courses consecutively, so I did LD twice and only got B in the end. Therefore, I have also taken many statistics courses to prove my abilities. I got C+ in Intro Mathematical Analysis 1. But during my class, there were some changes in the content and name of the class, which were even more difficult than now. I'm not sure if I need to explain it in SOP. I don't have much research experience, many people are 5+ full-time research assistants. I have never worked as a teaching assistant. International students face fierce competition. UG core courses: Introductory Microeconomic Analysis, A Introductory Macroeconomic Analysis, A Statistical Foundations for Econometrics, A- Intermediate Microeconomic Analysis (Honors), A Intermediate Macroeconomic Analysis (Honors), A Introduction to Econometrics, B Environmental Economics, A Multinationals and the Globalization of Production, A- Special Topics: Computational and research Econ with R, A Growth and Development, A Advanced Microeconomics, master-level, A Microeconomics theory, PhD level, A- Calculus and Multivariable calculus 1, 2, 3 A, B+,B Matrix, A- ODE, A Elementary Combinatorics, A Concepts of Discrete Mathematics, A- Real Analysis, A Introduction to Analysis I, C+ Probability Theory, A Mathematical Statistics, A Numerical Computations, B+ Mathematics of Finance, B Linear Programs, A Linear Regression, A Master courses: Analysis of Variance and Design of Experiments, A Statistical Consulting, A SAS, A Design of Experiments, A Sampling Theory and Methods, B+ Applied Data Mining and Statistical Learning, A Design and Analysis of Clinical Trials, A- going on...... Please give me some suggestions. I appreciate any comments and thank you for your time and effort!!!
