Ao, Here is my short assessment of

Ao,

Here is my short assessment of this, then I am happy to talk more about
this a bit later (and before the deadline!) once you are getting closer
to the choice.

First and most important, you did absolutely great, and you have what I
see as two great options, Princeton and Berkeley, plus Stanford if it
comes through. I think that these schools are all top programs in an
equivalence class so you cannot really go wrong!

Second, you are absolutely right that you may well change your interests
doing grad school. That is all fine, and it may well happen. So you want
to think of a school that broadly covers your interests.

Given the above, for econometrics, I would think that both Berkeley and
Princeton cover you well, with a slight edge maybe to Princeton. In
Berhavioral, the edge is clearly ours, as it is quite difficult to do
behavioral in Princeton. But more broadly, if you do applied micro, both
universities are very good, but I would say that the training Berkeley
offers is superior. On micro theory, again both places are godo, with
some edge for Princeton.

A little bit is also location -- Berkeley is in sunny California as you
saw, Princeton in a pretty location but... on the East Coast!

Best,
Stefano

But of course knowledge in a core course is insufficient for me to be exposed to the frontier of research in metrics (When involved in Alex R's work I taught myself knowledge beyond 240B). So although my fields of interest include both, actually I know more about behavioral while less about metrics.

Sometimes even micro theory and network seem interesting although I don't have opportunities to get exposed to them intensively.

I will be focused on micro side, but I guess I might have to wait until second year in grad school to see what eventually I am interested in. It would be great if you would like to share your experience and opinion about other fields apart from behavioral.

骗子这里是我短的评估，然后我很高兴更多的谈论这一点后来 （和在截止日期前 ！） 的一次，你越来越近选择。首先也是最重要的你绝对很好，和你有什么我作为两个很好的选择，普林斯顿大学和伯克利，加上斯坦福大学看看，如果它出来。我认为，这些学校中的所有顶级程序等价类所以你不会错的 ！第二，你是绝对正确的你可能会改变你的利益做研究生。那很好，和它可能发生的情形。所以你想要想的一所学校，大致涵盖了您的利益。鉴于上述情况，计量经济学，我会认为这两个伯克利和普林斯顿大学盖你很好，也许到普林斯顿了微弱的优势。在Berhavioral，边缘很明显，我们的因为它是很难做在普林斯顿的行为。但更广泛地说，如果你做应用的微，既大学是很好，但我要说，培训伯克利报价是优越的。对微观理论，再两个地方都 · 戈多与普林斯顿大学的一些边缘。一点点也是位置 — — 伯克利是在阳光灿烂的加利福尼亚，作为你看到，在一个漂亮的位置但...在东海岸的普林斯顿 ！最好，斯蒂法诺在 2016/3/11 7:2 上午，Ao 王写道 ︰> 亲爱的斯蒂法诺，> > 增补行为，目前我的兴趣领域包括计量经济学 — — 我这学期选了 240B，也有教授鲍威尔作为我的顾问之一。但当然在一门核心课程知识的不足，我暴露在度量研究的前沿 （涉及在 Alex R 工作时我教自己知识超越 240B）。所以虽然我感兴趣的领域包括两个，其实我知道更多关于行为而少有关度量。> > 我一般兴趣应用微和我想你介绍 219B，说，媒体，公开的财务的大部分工作，IO 是伟大的但我不是很熟悉其中的任何。有时甚至微观理论和网络感兴趣的虽然我没有机会接触到他们密集地。> > 我不知道是否我应该广泛尝试其他领域。我将会集中在微观方面，但我想我可能要等到第二年在毕业学校看什么最终我很感兴趣。如果你想分享你的经验和对其他领域除了行为的看法，这是巨大的。> > 我猜可能不太方便为您回答我的问题上面通过电子邮件。你有任何空闲时间后下星期五吗？> > 最好，> 岙
