Also got accepted into a few Public Policy PhD programs and a few Health Policy/Econ PhD programs. Still haven't heard back from BU or BC but those decisions no longer matter to me. Berkeley was a total shock for me as my application is good but not perfect. It seems like a lot of US applicants with RAships got wrecked this application cycle and I feel very lucky to have cracked the top 10.

Have an MA in International Econ from a reputed US university, another math-heavy MS in Econ from home country and BS in Finance and Econ from home country (both relatively unknown in USA). Near-perfect GRE quant and two years RA experience in a prestigious US institution. Didnt realize I was overestimating myself when I applied. Still I feel lucky given that I know many international students with similar RA experience not managing to hit any top 30-35 ranked school. I guess the european master's or phd-level micro courses would have helped. Edited April 11, 2017 by ehphd2017 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
