Hello, I am an undergraduate at US. i have several questions regarding my course plan in the senior year, wish you can give me some suggestions, Thank you very much. 1. if I have attended math-camp, is it recommended to still take other math courses, like real analysis? i have already finished all preparation for real analysis, topology, stochastic process sequence, elementary probability sequence, financial math sequence. probably with partial differential equations and fourier series in this summer. 2. if i cannot take all phd_level courses(very likely), which courses are mostly recommended according to the difficulty level and signal effect to the admission committee? My interest is macro and my undergraduate electives are monetary econ, trade, information econ(auction, probability with signal). Moreover, I did not take undergraduate-level honor econometrics, so should i have better to take that before graduate econometrics? Thank you very much.

My analysis professor was pretty slow and didn't cover much of the tail end of a normal yearlong analysis sequence (Lebesgue integration and measure theory, Riemann integration in R^n, inverse and implicit function theorems). Are any of these topics particularly crucial to the first year econ sequence? I'm planning to take the first year sequence next year, so if there are deficiencies caused by this I want to remedy them.

This question has been bugging me for quite a while now. Hope someone can shed some light on this. Hypothetically, will a candidate be marked down if he doesn't have enough - or bad - math grades on his transcript, but has As in PhD micro I, macro I, econometrics I? The reason for this is because math courses are taken to signal the ability to at least survive the first year sequence. However, if said candidate gets As for all the first PhD sequence, will that be sufficient to speak for his ability? I ask this because I strongly believe that intersection between people who enjoy and can manage grad econ & the people who hate pure math classes is strictly non-empty.
