Hi all, In my undergraduate degree, I had the unusual opportunity of working with a mathematics faculty member on a paper which led to a publication in a leading journal soon after our research concluded. Outside of a brief literature review, this is the only significant, faculty-led research experience that I've got under my belt. On top of that, I was also a highly regarded TA for a linear algebra course for several semesters before I graduated from undergrad. To make matters a bit more confusing, I have what I believe to be non-competitive mathematics grades in the courses that I took as an undergraduate (B level for the most part). I was wondering if anyone knows what the general consensus is on non-economics publications and non-economics TA experiences in the context of applying for Econ PhD programs? Are these experiences enough to potentially make up for some of my lackluster mathematics grades? -
Hi everyone! I'm an aspiring Ph.D. applicant and this is my first time posting here. I wanted to ask you guys about your experiences approaching professors for an RA position. I've seen a lot of tips about how to ask for an RA job, but almost all of them are for science/engineering majors where professors regularly recruit students for their labs. I was just wondering what would be the best way to ask a business school professor whether he/she needs an RA. Any advice can help! Thank you guys so much!
