  1. I was just wondering if I can have your opinion about these courses and which one should I go for. Oxford - Master in Financial Economics (1 year) http://www.sbs.ox.ac.uk/MFE/ Cambridge - Diploma in Economics + Mphil in Economics (2 years) http://www.admin.cam.ac.uk/univ/gspr....html#course01 LSE - MSc Economics (2 year course) http://www.lse.ac.uk/resources/gradu...cEconomics.htm I have fulfilled all the necessary conditions for the three universities and have to make a final decision in the next 2-3 days about the course that I opt for. As for my future plans, I plan to work for 3-4 years after the postgrad degree and, subsequently, do either a PhD. in Eco or an MBA depending on my interestes later on. Any advice would be very very highly appreciated Cheers!
  2. Hello knaves, got over with my gre this morning and have to accept I am the lucking guy in this universe. My Q was hands down the toughest I've ever come across, the difficulty level was atleast 10 times the kaplan papers, guessed on all the DI and a couple of more questions in Q and yet managed to pull off an 800. most of the analogies/antonyms were rather predictable and think got all of them right but RC was ram in the arse, got a fcuking treatise about some geology crap and two more on weirdest topics under the sun, guess they brought my score down. anyway, since I'll be applying for economics courses, where much higher emphasis is placed on quant, V shouldn't be much of a problem. and oh AWA was "The absence of choice is a circumstance that is very, very rare." OR "Many problems of modern society cannot be solved by laws and the legal system because moral behavior cannot be legislated" (did the second one) The following appeared in a recommendation from the president of Amburg's Chamber of Commerce. "Last October the city of Belleville installed high intensity lighting in its central business district, and vandalism there declined almost immediately. The city of Amburg has recently begun police patrols on bicycles in its business district but the rate of vandalism there remains constant. Since highintensity lighting is apparently the most effective way to combat crime, we should install such lighting throughout Amburg. By reducing crime in this way, we can revitalize the declining neighborhoods in our city." am gonna start applying to UK schools for a masters in economics now. Thanks all :)

  8. i am planning to give the gre sometime in august (most probably the last week) and this is the prep i am doing these days, i just want to know if i should put in more effort or will this suffice, 1. princeton review gre book, i have done almost all their drills/exercises, the hot vocab list and found it to be pretty easy. 2. barron's - right from the time i gave my SAT, this book has been along with me, i find it to be the toughest and most comprehensive out of all the test prep books. most of their high frequency words are the same as that of the SAT book, so it'll probably take me like a week more to do all of them. the full wordlist seems to be a freaking dictionary and i feel intimidated to say the least of that thing. am not even touching it, glanced over a few lists though and found that i knew quite a lots of words but then again just 1 month to go, i dont want to confuse myself , so just let it be. 3. the gre wordlist recommended by erin on his website - i know like 70% of the words given their already but then aain will finish it off in another 10 days or so. thats pretty much all my verbal prep, got a kaplan and princeton gre softwares from palika but dont use them all that much. now about the scores, in barron's tests i usually get around 22-24 questions right for the entire tests, around 12/20 for analogies and antonyms exercises and nothing below 18/20 for the rc, can anyone tell me what my scaled score is roughly going to be around?? also, although i am pretty good at RCs but i dont really have the habit of reading stuff off the computer screen, for some reason after like 2 paras i lose interest and thus get screwed in RCs, any recommendations there?? and finally, i still haven't registered for the gre, so do u think, considering the above and the fact that i am gonna study for like 4-5 hrs everyday till the gre, i will be able to get a 650+ Verbal?? i mean shoulkd i go forward and register for the test?? any reply would be greatly appreciated :) -amit P.S. if u are wondering where the title of this thread came from, it's a track of The Beatles Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band :p P.P.S just read my post again and looks like a friggin' treatise, sorry for that :(
