Hello All, I am interested in part-time phd economics programs in the USA. Though I am more interested in programs around DC, Virginia and Maryland am open country wide. I would appreciate if people shared the part time programs they know of given that I didn't get a good result on google search. Thanks

Hi As you probably know, IELTS Speaking Part 3 is the most difficult part of the IELTS Speaking test for most candidates. For a good example of how to answer IELTS Speaking Part 3 questions from a band score 8.5 candidate (Nils from Belgium), check out my latest IELTS video below. In the video, Nils answers some Part 3 questions on the topic of advertising and then I explain how Nils organises his answers to make them easy to follow. Pete

Are you aware of any person who has successfully negotiated for a modified or part time PhD schedule? I know most programs say they do not offer part time studies, but I wonder if there are ever exceptions to this rule. For various reasons related to family constraints and my own utility optimization function, I am brainstorming options for spreading the PhD coursework over more than 2 years or otherwise arranging for a more flexible pace over the course of the program. I see this kind of negotiation as something similar to negotiating salary and benefits with any other private sector employer--In that scenario I am aware of many employers who don't advertise part time positions but are sometimes willing to make accommodations for the right candidate. Has this been done before? Am I crazy to think it might work?

Do adcoms normally look at your grades from the fall semester of the year that you are applying? I've seen that the deadline for submitting transcripts to most schools are in early December. I'm taking graduate level courses in micro and econometrics this fall and would like to have the grades as part of my profile. If I upload them in early to mid January, will they be looked at? Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Starting HRM PhD this summer. I have a master in econ from a very good European Uni. Now I have 4 months to prepare for the first year and this is what I’ll do: - De la Fuente Chapters 1-4 - MWG Part I (with lecture notes from N.Miller) - davidson&mackinnson chapters 1-5 - Sargent/Ljiunqvist Chapters 1-6 What do you think? Should I focus more on pure math or programming?
