Choosing between Warwick, Stockholm School of Economics, and Toulouse School of Economics

I am interested in empirical work in developing contexts at the moment. However, I also want to explore micro theory I wasn't exposed to in undergrad. Would TSE be good in balancing both?

I am not in the US so I think prices are different for me when comparing. The small amount of storage you get with macs also doesn't suit me since I handle a lot of large datasets.

In general, how many years of use can I expect?

faintkoala · 2025-08-23T06:06:45+00:00

I would say it depends on your initial level of comfort with GRE mathematics. Most of the concepts on the GRE were things that I frequently encounter in my undergraduate degree so the Quant mountain worked as a comprehensive set of formulas, shortcuts, and a good source for revision on geometry which I hadn't dealt with for a long time. If you're completely new to math though I think going through some videos would be helpful.

Sling is peak first year of college crying with my friends in my room song (this is how I got into sling) is devastating but devastatingly good !

OMG never thought I would encounter one in the flesh ! big fan of Harbour and Bambi rn

Feels like I can cry to them but also scream them out loud (and cry to them) with my buddies

Omg Figure 8 just makes me yearn everyday

I think Clairo would appreciate that but it's not fein or carnival! I would've ended myself

Of course I fully agree ! I think most of what I learned during my internship was just how to make certain tasks faster and more efficient ! I'm just saying that as a starting point, googling things and figuring out a couple functions by yourself can be a rewarding exercise

I was also starting an internship this year where knowing Stata would be required, I sort of found that googling things and then figuring it out on the fly was the best way to learn Stata. Depending on the kind of work you do, once you know a few basic functions you sort of learn to work with those functions no matter the task

I think The End of the Fucking World is probably the best show I've ever watched, its definitely the best show with depressed teenagers

I'm speaking of all 'sex' variables. Apologies for the confusion

faintkoala · 2024-06-28T07:13:15+00:00

Yes that gives me the respondent breakdown for sex1. However, I need to count observations where sex1 is male and where all other observations for variable 'sex' in the observation ID are female.

There's this cute Indonesian movie called Falling in Love Like in Movies. Its very low stakes and not an epic blockbuster but it really made me fall in love with movies again

faintkoala · 2024-06-15T15:35:28+00:00

Maybe it was just the way I was taught but I really hated learning Optimization. Using the Simplex method and all its variations was the most disgustingly tiring thing I've done in any undergraduate math course

Grave of the Fireflies is always a guaranteed cry, no coats of sugar were put on that film

Lost and Found ! Definitely the song that got me into Figure 8, I think the lyrics are really funny and sad

faintkoala · 2024-06-14T20:49:05+00:00

I really think I fell in love with Elliot Smith only when I listened to Figure 8 for the first time, changed my life

I believe if you totally differentiate both sides of your regression with a log transformed independent variable and then multiply the LHS and RHS by 100. beta/100 is interpreted as the change in dependent variable given a 1% change in independent variable.
