Hi everyone! I've been lurking, figured I should post. I'm not applying till 2010, so any tips on improving my application are welcome...
I'm going to a H/Y/P, applying for poli. sci. with methods. My departmental GPA is around a 3.7, actual one is a bit lower. I don't have any published work yet, but I'm working on an honors thesis that focuses on repeated bayesian games, and I'm hoping to research more with another professor next semester (they've all been incredibly helpful). Have taken math-based econometrics, microeconomic theory, macroeconomic theory, stats, and a few finance courses. My major is government/polisci, so I've taken IR/Politheory courses as well. Any idea on what I can do to improve over the next year aside from studying for the GRE? I hope to apply to Princeton, Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Rochester, U. Mich, NYU, Columbia, UCSD, U Chic.
Thanks and good luck to everyone!
