Excellent Economics Graduate School Application Resource
henrysurfer replied to henrysurfer's topic in PhD in Economics
exactly. and the user generated content sites are as good as the community that surrounds them. so it just depends on how big the community is. The larger the community the smaller the bias. -

huh? you paid 225 a month for 10,000 impressions? You must have gotten ripped off....... generally you get like 1 dollar for 1,000 impressions. it doesn't even pay for the bandwidth. seriously - these sites are basically like volunteer services. there's no way to make money from them. and the facebook analogy is pretty dumb....applicant tools are only useful once or twice in a lifetime..... :hmm: -

You can find profiles for different students on Yuster! - School Admission Results Program Guide For example, if you are interested in Upenn computer science, you can view this page here: Yuster! - Computer Science, Ph.D. at University Of Pennsylvania Admission Results And Statistics You can see the average admitted GRE score was: Q: 786, V: 693, W: 4.3 You can go next to each reported result - next to applicant type to see the applicant's reported profile. You can do this for all the programs you are interested in. Hope that helps...

It's a good resource for when you are waiting to hear back from schools, and to find out when other folks are hearing back. It also has a lot of historical information on when schools reported in previous years. -
My pleasure!

Hi everyone. I don't know if there are any re-applicants out there like me, but I thought I'd share an interesting website for tracking admissions results from last year. It's at Yuster! School Application Notification and allows you to track admission results from different schools! Warning: It gets addictive!

A better alternative to thegradcafe.com ?

Bobvp or Thai-Binh here is the bastard that ripped off the original whogotin guys, and created a horribly ugly knock-off with the dumb whogotin.info domain. Stop pretending to be a regular applicant. All you are doing is promoting your dumb website. We should all never go to Nguyen's dumb website, because he's a liar and a fraud! I bet Thai-Binh is the one spamming all the websites. ----- For anyone interested in seeing why bobvp spreads fake controversy, take a look at the domain name registration for whogotin.info Creation Date........ 2006-07-23 Registration Date.... 2006-07-23 Expiry Date.......... 2008-07-23 Admin Name...........

Shut up BOBVP or should I call you Thai-Binh - the owner of the dumb whogotin.info website and the bastard that ripped off the original whogotin guys. Stop pretending to be a regular applicant and cause fake controversy to promote your own website. Everyone knows that you are the owner of that dumb whogotin.info website! Horrible website by the way, by far the worst. A classic example of: if you mix together enough crap into a website, you just end up with a giant piece of crap. And in your case, it's a giant piece of crap dressed up with 25 adwords ads per page..... ---- For anyone interested in seeing why bobvp spreads fake controversy, take a look at the domain main registration for whogotin.info Creation Date........ 2006-07-23 Registration Date.... 2006-07-23 Expiry Date.......... 2008-07-23 Admin Name...........

You're joking, right? yuster.com is the definitely the best in my opinion. The one you are talking about always has a bunch of spam! -
