Hi, I am currently finishing my 3rd year at UofT, and I'm interested in pursuing a MA in Economics in Canada. This is my profile below - I would appreciate any advice regarding my chances at some Canadian schools for an MA:
Type of Undergrad: UofT
Undergrad GPA: 3.76/4.0
Major: Economics, Environmental Management
GRE: 168Q, 164V, AWA 5
Math Courses:
Calculus I and II (A-)
Linear Algebra (A)
Econ Courses:
Intermediate Micro (B+): (Class average was quite low at C-, which is indicated on transcript)
Intermediate Macro (A+)
Environmental Economics (A)
Public Economics (A+)
Advanced Public Economics (A+)
Econometrics (A)
Teaching Experience:
TA for Macroeconomic course for 2 years during undergrad.
Gaps in application:
- Lack of Advanced Micro and Macro is the real thing that's causing some uncertainty. I could choose to take one of these courses during the fall semester of my last year, but I can't fit the other one in. Which one would be more important? I'm assuming Advanced Micro, because my intermediate mark is the worst one I've gotten in Economics so far.
Any advice about which schools to apply to is appreciated!
