<p>Hey all,</p>
<p>I just wanted to get some suggestions on undergrad schools with strong econ major.</p>
<p>I have around 3.95 weighted , 3.7 nw gpa
and 2020 sat
650 reading, 700 Math and 670 writing.</p>
<p>I was thinking about nyu cas and cmu h&ss</p>
<p>any suggestion?</p>
<p>University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
University of Rochester
University of Wisconsin-Madison</p>
<p>@ hkkxp</p>
<p>I would also consider Northwestern Univ. It has a very strong economics program.</p>
<p>10 years old</p>
<p>[EDIRC:</a> United States, Top Departments](<a href=“http://edirc.repec.org/usa-top.html]EDIRC: ”>EDIRC: United States, Top Departments )</p>
<p>I’ll second Rochester. I actually just read a really intriguing article about their program the other day. I’ll see if I can find it…</p>
<p>A few other top choices:
Berkeley
NYU
Cornell
Johns Hopkins
Rice
UCLA</p>
<p>chicago…obviously…</p>
<p>Carnegie Mellon? what do people think about that?</p>
<p>If you intend to go into business (as most econ majors seem to do), Northeastern would be a good low fit. Beyond that, look at your in-state schools. Also, the University of Minnesota is very good in econ.</p>

<p>thx all to who gave suggestions
Any more schools about nyu CAs level ?</p>
<p>Northwestern and jhu seem kinda hard for me to get in</p>
<p>Syracuse (a bit lower than NYU), Boston University, Boston College, Tufts</p>
<p>that ten year old ranking is terribly inaccurate today, and i’d say very inaccurate for its time as well.</p>
<p>^how about this one?

Sam,</p>

I’m not complaining though.</p>
<p>yea…there’s no such thing as undergrad ranking; at leasts it beats what i can put out. ;)</p>
