Economics, Stanford University While we cannot respond to each applicant individually about the strengths and weaknesses of their application, you may find it helpful to know that the successful applicants had perfect or near perfect scores on the GRE, impeccable letters of recommendation, extremely high grades - especially in math and economic courses, and demonstrated evidence of research ability. The committee also took into account the calibre of the undergraduate and/or graduate institutions attended. Applicants are also compared against the pool of other applicants applying in the same year. This year we had approximately 700 applications, but we were only able to offer admission to 55 applicants.
