Preparation for MWG and Ljungqvist/Sargent
Hello all.. I am about to attend a graduate program where they use Mas-Colell/Whinston/Green for first year micro and Ljungqvist/Sargent for first year macro.. What are the best ways to prepare for these two books (in terms of mathematics especially)?
I have never taken a math course during my entire undergrad education.. I am comfortable with calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, and a tiny little bit of analysis (single-variable, no metric space, no normed space, no lebesgue, no no no), but nothing else..  help! |

Descartes, I don't know how it is possible not to take any math classes and get admitted to a grad school. What is the ranking of the school,what range (top 10, 20 or .....).
However due to the urgency if ur are not busy and not short of money I would suggest a summer math classes at a community college just to save u some money. However if u don see that feasible, you can pick up Schaum's "Outline series on Calculus or mathematical economics Probability and statistics or u can just buy Greene's book I think the first three chapters talk about probability and linear algebra. But I will say picking up the Schaum's series since they are inexpensive. U wight wanna get started on few Linear algebra concepts.
