[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC into both. I know that UChicago has a super stellar rep for economics. But, attention to undergrads is reportedly poor. Wellesley OTOH seems very strong in its pedagogy. Anyone with kids/experience in these schools able to offer any insight? [/quote] The trick is to place into ECON 20010 as a freshman via a 5 in micro (and do well by knowing both actual microeconomics [via MIT OCW or another rigorous source] and basic optimization (which might require a bit of self studying)). This puts the student on track to take graduate courses before they graduate, which is where they can get the resources. Obviously this requires being an exceptional (or at least ambitious) student, and if you're worried about DC getting "lost in the crowd", then choose Wellesley.[/quote]
