Date: June 15th, 2009 2:28 PM Author: bistre aphrodisiac garrison Subject: LSE Development Course Chances So, I'm wondering what my chances are with LSE's Development/Dev. Management/International Political Economy courses?
I have a 3.48 UG degree in Economics from a t20 public. Also, I've been working with a major non-profit (think: TFA, PeaceCorps, etc) and worked 40 hours/wk doing UG research during my last 2 years of school. Should I take the GRE as further proof of capacity or apply with what I've got?
Thanks! |

I feel you have a good shot at getting into the department. I've met plenty of Americans in the program from schools ranked lower than a t20 public school, and some with very little economics background.

1) <2000 student, non-prestigious LAC 2) it's a low-tier satellite campus of a major university system 3) affiliated with a hardline religious movement (think Bob Jones University)
my guess is that it's in the 40-60% range. |
