My GRE quant score is 800 and TOEFL score is 280. My CGPA is 3.71 and I took mathematical analysis, multivariable calculus,linear algebra,mathematics for economists, game theory,graph theory, advanced economic theory, econometrics I and II. My chosen schools are the following:
Stanford University
Duke University

UCLA
UCSC

Univ of Wisconsin Madison
Georgetown University
What is your suggestion for the 11th university and what is your opinion for the rest? Thank you..

i think UCSC will be a safety for you, unless they recieve a tons of applications this year.. regarding another school, maybe Austin, UCSD,

i think where will you end up will depend on the quality of your letter of recommendations..all schools you are applying, except UCSC, are top programs.

Best of luck for your applications.
