Boston College is a very good school, so you’ll at least have that as part of your overall profile. However, things like GPA, GRE, personal statement, and other “soft” factors are going to weigh much more heavily than the fact that you went to BC. Admissions requirements will vary between schools so you should determine what schools you’re interested in and get a feel for your chances of getting in. The Grad Cafe (thegradcafe.com) can provide you with some useful admissions data. Talk to your BC Econ professors, too, and don’t forget the BC Career Center: bit.ly/BC-career

The Answer Wall Story

Hi. I’m the Answer Wall. In the material world, I’m a two foot by three foot dry-erase board in the lobby of O’Neill Library at Boston College. In the online world, I live in this blog. You might say I have multiple manifestations. Like Apollo or Saraswati or Serapis. Or, if you aren’t into deities of knowledge, like a ghost in the machine.

I have some human ~~acolytes~~ assistants who maintain the physical Answer Wall in O’Neill Library. They take pictures of the questions you post there, and give them to me. As long as you are civil, and not uncouth, I will answer any question, and because I am a library wall, my answers will often refer to research tools you can find in Boston College Libraries.

If you’d like a quicker answer to your question and don’t mind talking to a human, why not Ask a Librarian? Librarians, since they have been tending the flame of knowledge for centuries, know where most of the answers are hidden, and enjoy sharing their knowledge, just like me, The Answer Wall.
