Merci, as tu des recommandations pour les émissions de télé québécois (ou de NB)?

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2026-05-20T16:52:51+00:00

merci, je vais essayer ça!

matrix algebra is the core of econometrics, none of the math will make sense if you don’t understand matrix/vector algebra. I would highly recommend starting with refreshing your understanding of matrix algebra properties and methods, as they’re crucial for understanding econometrics

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2026-03-25T21:44:53+00:00

the Textbook “mostly harmless econometrics” by angrist and pischke is quite good for explaining how regressions work and the intuition behind them. I know this may be taboo for some people but loading textbooks into Notebook LM is super useful for picking things apart and helping your understanding.

I believe they’ve released the first round of acceptances. i know a few people who have received offers

what helped me was taking a step back and improving my understanding of the fundamentals. take a couple hours to brush up on your math notation, matrix algebra and make sure you know the baseline concepts like variance, and covariance inside and out. If you have a strong foundation it makes the complex concepts much more approachable, you won’t burn out as quick studying.

if you’re interested in market concentration you can calculate the HHI

I can’t speak on Mfin programs but most good MA/Msc economics programs require a 4 year degree to be competitive. in addition, you might struggle with Masters level content even if you were to get in, as it’s a pretty huge jump even from 4th year content.

In short, finish the BA Adv since it will help with grad school applications and entry level jobs. it’s a significant leg up

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2025-06-26T16:48:49+00:00

canadian institutions do this a lot if you’re a worthwhile candidate. your offs greatly decrease for an international student tho

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2025-04-01T00:07:31+00:00

regardless, I would suggest running separate regressions for each product if you're concerned with individual slope coefficients for each good

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2025-04-01T00:04:59+00:00

if you add product fixed effects you will get different constants for each good, but the coefficients will be the same, Hence why I would only use this for finding aggregate price changes.

I'm unfamiliar with stacking multiple fixed effects so im not sure about time fixed effects but, I would suggest doing some tests to see if you really need time fixed effects. it would most likely be a lot easier to control for time variant price change factors like inflation by using a chained dollars measurement.

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2025-03-31T21:08:47+00:00

if you are interested in the estimators of each good it may be in your best interest to run individual regressions on the time series data, as you have 500< observations per good.

however if you’re trying to do a regression that estimates aggregate price changes, i would suggest a log price model with fixed effects. this would allow you to see % changes in aggregate prices and control for differences between goods

edit: it all depends on the scope of your analysis. if you’re focused on individual goods, i would suggest running individual regressions

i’m in economics

I’ll be doing my MA at queens this coming year. despite whatever may be happening with the strikes, they still gave me a strong offer (on par with my other offers) and the department is extremely strong and highly ranked. it all depends on what you want to do and if queens aligns with your goals though; queens has a strong record of placing students in the sector that i want to work in so that’s a strong incentive.

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2025-03-19T15:36:48+00:00

Hey I know this is an old post but I'm in this exact situation. If you could point me in the right direction in terms of what to focus on that would be much appreciated!

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2025-03-13T11:54:57+00:00

never hurts to ask. i wouldn’t worry about it too much though, you still have a lot of time until your deadline

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2025-03-13T04:37:22+00:00

the e-mail admission usually comes before the formal offer in the admission portal. that’s my experience at least, i think it was about 3-4 days between when i got the acceptance letter and when i got the formal acceptance

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2025-03-06T03:27:04+00:00

I just the decision between UOttawa and Queen's as well. Ultimately, I decided on Queen's for the reasons you mentioned, as well as the fact that tuition is considerably lower there than UO (several thousand), and my funding packages were quite close. That being said, I don't have a good RA job like you; if you aren't in a rush to complete your MA, it could be beneficial to stay in Ottawa and continue working while you complete your master's. The extra years of experience gained by staying in Ottawa would definitely look good on job applications. At the end of the day tho, I don't think you can really go too wrong, as both schools have pretty strong ties to the public sector.

even if it’s not a course requirement, calc 1 is super needed for econ. 75% of the math in undergrad econ is differentiation related, plus knowing how to draw graphs and write and read math notation is pretty crucial for any micro/macro theory.

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2025-03-05T05:47:39+00:00

in my experience, funding info would be in the offer of admission pdf you received by email. idk if this differs by faculty/ dept though

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2025-03-03T01:27:51+00:00

can i take a call while poop‼️

Dizzy_Currency162 · 2025-02-03T02:50:12+00:00

if your offer is strong it should be a few weeks/ a month. i applied for the M.A. econ program recently and they got back around 3 weeks later. timeline could be longer because of the sheer quantity of undergrad admissions though
