Bump! Someone must at least have a opinion the the first point, whether or not being out of academia for a year when the application is made will have an effect on future applications?

So missed out on admission for 2008/2009, and now i have a couple of issues. Firstly I haven't done any meaningful work this year (been doing menial work just to get little money together), so will that be a negative point against my future applications? Secondly does anyone know of good places to RA at for next year, ideally either in the areas of experimental/behavioural Economics or game theory/industrial organistation as these are the only areas i feel confident of my abilities to be an effective RA in at this point? I don't really mind moving anywhere, but i'm only fluent in English. Thanks in advance!

Hi, has anyone else applied to the MSc Economics program at the IHS-Vienna. I'm a little concerned, because my old lecturer thought i would have no problems getting in and they said that they would be conducting interviews this week, but i haven't heard anything. Has anyone heard from them? Here's my profile if anyone is interested, it did get me waitlisted at a couple of the places i had applied for http://www.www.urch.com/forums/phd-economics/107078-applying-phd-but-panicking-lot.html

You could always break the ice with a joke, and ask them if they like fishsticks? Then see how they are going to fix the world....

That would be brillant, but doubtful somehow.:rolleyes: But at least this rejection gave me a chuckle as well!!

I had one from Cornell that didnt spell Economics correctly, it was spelt "Ecnomics"....

Again i got a rejection from them today without prompting them for my status. Haven't had the best day really... :rolleyes:
