Hello i am a student from one of the UCs (Top 20 school in my field)  

My last year (junior) year has been a pretty rough  one, where I have earned 4 Cs and an F (due to academic dishonesty). 

Profile: 

Type: Asian Female 

Major: Applied Math and Economics with minor in business 

Overall GPA: 3.1 

Econ GPA: 3.1 

Applied Math GPA: 2.5 

Research Experience: 1 paper co authored with a professor in the business school. 2- years of lab assistant ship. 2 summers internship with a reputed company. 

GRE: Q 167 V160

 

1. What advice would you give me for wanting to get into a top 30 PhD program in Finance or Economics 

2. with my current grades and scores: what programs would accept me?

I do not know if a top-30 program will accept you, due to your poor grades and the academic dishonesty.

I can't really advise beyond that, as I do not know exactly how your dishonesty will affect you. But maybe you could do a master's degree to compensate for the bad grades?
