<p>b_hand, forget all the other schools mentioned above. Below is a clip I got from the University of Chicago's so-called "quantitative" Econ department. Clearly, Chicago was way ahead of its time back in the 1930s or 1940s. They were up to some pretty ground-breaking, earth-shattering stuff back then. But that's ancient history, and word out on the street is, they haven't evolved much since. Those guys are resting on their laurels, so to speak. </p>

<p>Now at the University of Michigan (the one in Ann Arbor), they do Economics right. I am talking evolved Econometrics applications to modern music. </p>

<p>The choice is obvious, go to Michigan!</p>

<p>Thanks you guys! Well, I have to say, Northwestern's MMSS certainly looks good, espeically considering I would be able to take advantage of their great music program (I intend to double major in vocal performance and economics, yes I will be very busy!) I will be applying to the UC schools as well, definately UCLA, UCSD, UCSB, maybe Berkeley? The quantitative track looks interesting.</p>
