OK great! thanks

Anyone have information on Upenn?

I went thought the application process two cycles ago, and decided to go for a terminal masters (mainly due to funding). Will my previous rejection from a school be counted against me as it comes to applying to the same school this upcoming application cycle?

I was talking about south carolina.

I was looking at USC, from what I can see they seem to be mostly focused on American. Is this what others have found also?

Can i ask what classes you took? Im looking at a calc course now.

Thanks, I will see if there are any summer classes I could take

How much quantitative work would you suggest? I have pretty good Quant GRE scores. In my MA I haven’t taken math courses but I have taken PE and I tend to gear individual work (I.e. research papers/projects) in other courses towards Econ. However, I will only have maybe 1 or 2 courses on my transcript that are easily classified as quant courses. Any suggestions for my remaining two semesters of my MA? Or anything else I could do to show that I can in fact do quantitative work? I also use to tutor econ in undergrad. Not sure how much that would count.

Any advice on other schools with strong political economy and comparative programs. Im looking anywhere in the top 25 range.

Thanks! I will look though the older threads

Does anyone have any advice for good programs in political economy, specifically comparative? I have a list of a few schools, but I am trying to expand it a bit. UC Berkeley, Yale, Duke, and University of Michigan. These are all top ten schools, maybe someone can recommend a few others that I should take a closer look at (they do not have to be top 10!)

umich would be my first choice actually, however, it is a very competitive prgram to get into.

Does anyone have any advice on up and coming schools geared towards Political Economy and Comparative?

This is only good for 3 months I noticed, may still be worth it I guess

Thats great, I will probably do the online Kaplan service! Thanks for the advice
