I'm applying to US PhD programs this coming Fall. Since most of the guys giving advice here are not the same set of people as before, I'd like to hear some of your opinions. Here's my profile:
Undergrad: BSocSci Hons (Economics) in one of the top Asian universities located in Southeast Asia; graduated top of economics class (around 200+ students) and received various medals including a prize in econometrics; received a prestigious scholarship from the country where this university is located (I'm not a citizen)
Grad: MA in Mathematical Economics and Econometrics (technically the 1st year of PhD) from a highly ranked program in microeconomics and IO located in France (top in Information Economics and 2nd in IO I think based on econphd); will graduate as one of the top of the class (best scores in micro, macro sequence and optimization); received a prestigious scholarship from the French government; personally offered a scholarship by my Masters thesis supervisor (famous guy; Econometric Soc fellow) for the rest of the PhD program (respectfully declined)
GRE: Q750 V600 AW4.0 (will likely re-take in October)
Research experience: forthcoming theory paper in the International Journal of Industrial Organization (co-authored with undergrad supervisor); working on a paper with an Econometrics guy from grad institution; RA for a relatively well-known (in his field) professor from undergrad institution that allowed me to be acknowledged in papers written by my supervisor with a famous UCL professor (deleted wrong info) and an MIT professor (John Bates Clark awardee); Honors thesis (undergrad RA supervisor) and Masters thesis; will be doing a one year RA job for two relatively well-known young supervisors at a Top 5 US institution; 2 small conference papers (not really significant)
LORs: potential writers include my supervisors in undergrad and grad institutions; the two guys I will be working for in the 1 year RA job; potential co-author from grad institution; (should I submit letters from all of them assuming that they will write excellent letters or just from those I'm sure of?)
TA: none
Research interests: IO both empirical and theoretical; semi-parametric and non-parametric statistics (mostly applied); designing Monte Carlo simulations for different estimators and tests; treatment effects; applied empirical economics (labor issues; education; political economy esp. economics of wars and political instabilities; urban economics); role of competition policy and microeconomic issues in developing countries; econometrics of auctions and other mechanism design topics
Math: calculus, linear algebra, real analysis (only as audit since I decided to spend time doing research and enjoying my now ex-girlfriend; I was one of the top students in the midterm though) all during undergrad; grad optimization (theoretical and rigorous; some differential geometry for static optimization; optimal control for dynamic part; taught by a famous econ/math guy who's also an Ect Soc fellow though never really got to closely work with him; received 20/20 under the French system)
是楼主本人吗？HBS，恩，够牛。请问他家是什么时候，以什么方式通知结果的呢？
(*^__^*) 嘻嘻……，当然不是啦，我能有他0.1牛么
好像是打电话通知的啊
今年harvard好象已经开始面试了
羡慕啊！

He went to Northwestern econ PhD in the end.
