Hi all,
First time poster. I'm currently a sophomore, Econ & Stats major at a top 20 Liberal Arts College.
I plan to eventually go to a top 15 Econ PhD program. Do you guys have any advice on how much more math to take? So far I've had Calc III (A-), Intro Linear Algebra (A), Undergrad Intro Analysis (A), Intro Stats (A), Econometrics (currently taking), and the standard Econ sequence (all As)
To finish the Stats major, I need to take Mathematical Stats, Undergrad Probability Theory (not analysis-based), Regression, and Data Mining. I plan to also take Stochastic Processes. Are there any other classes I need to take for Top 15? I'm thinking of Ordinary Differential Equations, Real Analysis II, Time Series, or grad level Micro/Macro. Are any of those useful?
I know the more Math the better. However, as much as I like Math, I still want to have a life, learn languages, study abroad, and be well-rounded.
Any opinion will be greatly appreciated!
