  1. Hola Peruano,

     

    Disculpa que te moleste. Soy otro peruano. Tengo una pregunta. Estudio actulamente en el CEMFI de Madrid, el cual es uno de los mejores sitios para estudiar economía en España. Anyway, estaba pensando en aplicar al doctorado de U of Florida. Mi familia vive cerca a Pensacola (a 5 horas de Gainesville) y creo que estar cerca de la familia despues de años viviendo solo en Lima y Madrid es un plus. Mi vocación va más por el teaching que por el research, así que llegar a ser profesor en una universidad de rango medio en EEUU donde paguen 40 - 50 k estaría bien para mí. No aspiro a grandezas ni a riquezas sólo a una vida tranquila y cómoda. Recomendarías U of Florida para un doctorado? He visto en algunos rankings que lo ubican en el puesto 40 - 50. Cuales son las fortalezas del departamento?

     

    Todo lo que me puedas decir es bienvenido y agradecido.

     

    Saludos.

  2. Indeed, ANOVA and regression are the same thing. ANOVA is often viewed as more general because you don't need to assign functional form.
  3. FB group for 2009? :) Oh, nevermind, I should read my private messages before I post. Hehe.
  4. Thanks Fierce! Directed at everyone, I was wondering, could plan for having a friend over one weekend or for two weekends, or am I guna be way too busy.
  5. Thanks a lot breakz and cjw :) I got into the Advanced Level. I'm super pumped. I've been wanting to attend for 2 years now, but last summer I had another research opportunity.
  6. In with full funding at the AEA program!!! So excited!
  7. Can we have an unofficial roommate finding session?? :)
  8. Having gone up to Durham recently, I will say that it is extremely cheap to live there. The food is significantly cheaper than in Florida. The housing is even cheaper than in Gainesville. I met up with a med student who rented a house with 2 others for 350. It was very decent, had a porch and backyard garden, washer and dryer, living room, dining room, and kitchen.
  9. The avatar says it all! Thanks everyone for all the support.
  10. Hello everybody! Anybody have exact knowledge about how much a student can make working for Fuqua or Sanford? For example, how much would a 10 hour a week job get you? Are there 20 hour jobs? More? Summer jobs? I'm trying to figure out how debt I could avoid if I went to duke. Thank you in advance :)
  11. The biggest of congratulations to Jeeves! It's good to have a TM insider with an NSF. :)
  12. Going to Duke this weekend, anyone from from TM going to be around?
