<p>haaha, don't tell me that, nauru. Academia is a scary world. Very scary. I'm trying to keep my GPA just low enough so I don't have the option because it keeps being suggested (jk).</p>
<p>BTW, Galbraith, Velk, etc. are tremendous professors at McGill, and have taught me an extraordinary amount (and helped me develop my criticisms). Galbraith is up there with the best econometricians, and Velk is basically at the center of New Monetary Economics. Both have taught me to challenge everything I think I know. But they can't change the core program, which is unfortunate.</p>
<p>BTW, I've had the pleasure of doing some research in decision theory. The field is really fascinating.</p>
<p>But honestly, I don't know if I can handle the math demands of a top 10 econ program these days. Maybe I can, and I'm just lazy.</p>
