[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] maybe not a good fit for finance/business school[/quote] The skills needed for business-school type finance are very different than those needed for the type of financial analysis you do with a finance PhD, which is basically applied math (e.g. https://fnce.wharton.upenn.edu/phd-course-descriptions/ includes this typical sentence as part of the course description: "Topics include non-separable utilities, market incompleteness, learning, uncertainty, differences of opinions, ex-ante and ex-post asymmetric information, ambiguity and Knightian uncertainty.")[/quote]
