Hey y'all, After doing some research with a professor this summer, we decided we wanted to continue researching into the fall. He found out that I could get course credit by enrolling in an independent study and doing research instead of studying. Another professor in the department says this is not uncommon. I was thinking that instead of taking History of Economic Thought, I could do this independent study/research course. Would this be worth doing or would it look weird from the standpoint of admissions? Thanks!

Hello forum Senior UG at an east coast LAC with dual econ/math, staying 5th year to take more math classes (applying 2011). Going to do year long independent study with 2 professors in the econ dept that I know quite well. Topic will be grad micro because I think I will go into theoretical micro in grad school. My question is as follows, should I do one semester of adult Varian then transition to Mas-Colell or just do M.C. for both semesters. My professors tell me M.C. assumes you know Varian so I plan on getting both books to see where I am at. I think my math skills are decent considering I have taken: RA I abstract algebra calc sequence LA ODE other standard math major cores.. Planning on taking along side this independent study: topology RA II abstract algebra II adv LA PDE numerical methods graph theory Thanks for your time, and of course appreciate any feedback :)
