  1. Hi there~ Frankly I don't see anything crazy at all in your points. Minnesota does have better placements, especially in macro or IO. But given your interested field, I think you should pay more attention on their placements in development or political econ. Maybe Maryland is better than Minnesota from this angle (I didn't check the data though). As far as I know, DC is really a good place for political studies. Also I believe the professors who share the same interests with you should be considered in your decision. Of course Minnesota has a bigger name than Maryland, but if there is a professor in maryland who's leading in your interested fields and his/her students have placed in your favorite institutions, it makes so much sense you choose maryland over minnesota. And You can have more information from professors with the same interests in their open houses. Anyway it's all about your own interests and future plan.
  2. Thank you cwlst! I agree with you and actually I'm inclined to rochester. But I've heard that rochester is not as influential as before, do you think we should consider this (hypothetic) trend in the future? Anyway I really appreciate your sharing and wish you have the best choice. Maybe we end up in the same program lol
  3. Hi, wish I can get some help or thoughts.... I got offers from these schools but cannot see which one is dominant. My current interest is in macro, and rochester seems to be good at it traditionally. But BU has more advantage in location (which also means expensive to live). Although psu is a rising department with pretty good funding, I'm not sure of its marco performance.....Many thanks for sharing

  5. Everything will be fine in the end, if it's not fine, it's not the end.
  6. you're not alone! I think it's either the bug in system or the trembling hand of somebody...
