Hi all,

 

Keen to get opinions on my chances at admission to a master of economics program at top UK schools (Oxbridge / LSE) and the EU (Toulouse, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Bocconi etc.)

 

Undergrad and Honours:

  • Studied at the University of New South Wales in Australia (ranked in top 3)
  • Distinction average in economics courses (GPA around 5.5-6 out of 7), major in econometrics
  • 2:1 overall (82%, cut off 85% for 1st class) in Honours year (5 advanced coursework subjects (postgrad/phd level) + 1 thesis), 1st class thesis, ranking was probably around 7/16.

Work experience:

  • 2 years at a top economic consulting firm
  • 2 years in group strategy team for a $10b market cap+ company

GRE score: 90th percentile

There's this website called Nomad Credit and it has a forum where someone from the Executive Team will answer personally any questions you have about studying abroad, education loans, and U.S. universities. And you can also get insights from other students doing the same. Nomad Credit
