Questions for Sam Lee

<ol>
<li>Are you in MMSS yet? If not, you need to decide if you want to do it and talk to the program director to see if they can still let you in (some admits in the past were able to do that in April). Sophomore entry is very difficult.</li>
<li>BA/MA is pretty selective and is supposed to be pretty intensive (makes sense since you will be taking courses with PhD candidates at one of the best econ depts in the world). It seems like if you do this, you can’t double-major anything else. [Undergraduate:</a> BA/MA Program, Economics Dept., NU](<a href=“http://www.econ.northwestern.edu/undergraduate/fouryear.html]Undergraduate:”>http://www.econ.northwestern.edu/undergraduate/fouryear.html)</li>
<li>Kellogg cert is selective but I’d say it may be a bit easier to get in than MMSS (sophomore entry) or econ BA/MA simply because the two certificate programs have a total of 100 slots.</li>
<li>Econ/IEMS double-major would be the easiest to achieve. Almost half of the 2007 IEMS graduates finished the major requirement of econ.</li>
<li>If I were you, I’d either do econ/MMSS (if you can get the director to let you in this month) or econ/IEMS. The Kellogg certificate would naturally fall into place if you get good grades.</li>
