Ranking of America's Best Graduate School

U.S. News & World Report Ranking 2005
: x2 y! r$ }0 ~In the annual US News and World Report 2005 (available on the web now, hard copy end of the year) ranking of US Economics graduate programs, UCSD Economics was named the tenth (10th) best economics program in the US. That's up from seventeenth in 2001, and second only to Berkeley in public universities. We even nosed out our sister campus, UCLA. UCSD is by decades the youngest of the top ten economics PhD programs.

There was special recognition of UCSD's leading role in econometrics (statistical analysis of economic data), ranking UCSD number 2 in that specialty, right after MIT. Additional specialties ranked were microeconomics (prices, markets, economic theory) 12th, public finance (taxation and government programs) 13th, macroeconomics (unemployment, inflation, business cycles) 16th, and international economics 16th.

你好!!!
, ]6 H% s5 {+ m+ }; G9 @% z* h, N我在seattle讀college...有一點問題!!
如果我成績不太好
university of WA 和seattle university 以外, 可以選擇什麼的大學?

上述的兩個學校入學門檻都不難
) u+ b4 @+ |9 ^9 E如果你是要念大學部 又是理工科
要有四年念不完的心理準備
(第一年修的課算是台灣高二高三的程度 物理化學數學)
有些學校讓你用考試拿學分
) z0 E' p" g3 E; L# B譬如 如果你微積分不錯 考試過了就不用修課

比較省

如果是申請研究所 有些學校會讓你有條件入學 修大學課程來補成績
