cowmafia Posted March 14 Posted March 14 Hi all. I have been truly fortunate enough to have A) gained admission to the above schools, and b) gained an external scholarship that will cover all my funding from which I choose. My end goal is to be in either Multilateral organizations (UN, World Bank, IMF, etc.), and/or Political Risk in the private sector (Eurasia Group, Albright Stonebridge, etc.) I already have a college degree in economics from UCLA, and have written a thesis, and worked for two years as a data analyst in California. some questions: 1) Does my undergrad degree and work mean that I should/could care less about the "Quant" metrics of SAIS/SIPA? Or does it mean I should explicitly pursue them because they'd be easier for me? 2) I know that MSFS has a much smaller class size, but am unsure how much this is a loss/gain compared to SAIS or SIPA. I believe it would be a benefit if they fought harder at Career services, but I've yet to see that online really... 3) I have always wanted to pursue some personal research, and Georgetown's lack of research options make me a little apprehensive in addition to it's lack of quant. 4) SIPA seems to get its grads in the private sector more $$$ than SAIS, but MSFS supposedly doesn't send almost anyone to the private sector? But all the information seems several years out of date? Does anyone have any leads or suggestions as to where to go for them?
