Notes
what a relief! got accepted after a 10 min interview. probably accepting the offer as I don’t have anything dominating it. i have no predoc nor research experience, just a master’s degree in economics from a very competitive university and i am very well placed in my cohort raking. I have taken real analysis and more advanced courses in math. it makes no sense to write my GPAs as I come from a country where there’s no grade inflation and professors barely give A’s
