Thanks so much for the input. I don't understand either! I am certainly working hard to improve, but I am a super slow test taker. My letters should look good, although not spectacular. I think I have made a good impression on the math faculty at my school and have been complemented on my research from econ professors. Do you have any on input on which tier of schools I should expect to be admitted to?

Hi all, I am hoping for guidance in applying for my Phd in Economics. I would also appreciate feedback on how to strengthen my profile. I am still in school and will take more classes than I have listed below A little about me: Double Major in Math and Econ from a top 30 public school. High GPA (3.93) Math Coursework: Calc I, Calc II, Vector Calc, Differential Equations and Linear Algebra, Discrete Math, Number Theory, Stochastic Processes I and II, Analysis I and II, Topology I and II, grad probability, Applied Number Theory Econ Coursework: Intro Micro and Macro, Intermediate Micro and Macro, Econ Stats, Econometrics I and II, Game Theory Will complete an honors thesis in econ department. Research in economics with guidance from math faculty GRE Scores: 162 Quant, 167 Verbal, 5.0 Writing Programming experience I still have time to improve my test scores, but I am worried that I won't be able to raise my quant score by much. Please respond with advice on where to think about applying and what to do to strengthen my profile. I am interested in studying mathematical economics and econometrics and would like to work with policy economics.

Hi all, I'm wondering what types of schools I should apply to for my Phd in Economics. A little bit about me: (note: I have not finished school yet and intend to take quite a few more math and econ classes) Double major in math and econ at a top 30 public school High GPA (3.95) Math coursework: Calc I, Calc II, Vector Calc, Differential Equations, Discrete Math, Number Theory, Stochastic Processes, Topology I and II, Analysis I and II, Math Stats, Graduate Probability, Applied Number Theory Econ coursework: Intro Micro, Intro Macro, Econ Stats, Micro Theory, Macro Theory, Game Theory, Econometrics I and II Will complete an honors thesis in economics. Research on an econ topic with guidance from a math faculty member TA for Econ Stats GRE: Verbal 167, Quant 162, Writing 5.0 (note: I intend to study and raise my quant score but I struggle with this test a lot) Some programming experience I want to study econometrics in graduate school. I hope to go to a top 30 school, but I understand my GRE scores are limiting. Please help me consider my options for graduate school applications. I also appreciate any feedback on how to strengthen my profile.
