MA/PhD Econ at UofT
Hello!
I am applying to the MA/PhD stream at UofT. I have scored 4.5 Writing (80th percentile), 160 Verbal (84th percentile) and 170 Math (98th percentile) on my GRE. I have good references. My all-time GPA is 92% (equivalent A+) and 94% in my last year of studies.
My only concern is that I have graduated with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree, and a minor in Economics. Although I do have a bunch of extra econ classes, it only stayed a minor. I also have 4 Math courses (only A+) as I was an International Math Olympic (which sadly enough the UofT application package did not give me a chance to mention). Finally, I am a PR in Canada.
Do you guys think the Econ minor rather than major will hurt my chances?
I am really hoping for the PhD stream because I need the funding
Thank you!
