What would you have done differently? I wish I would've decided to apply to grad schools earlier than January so I could've retaken the GRE. Wish I would've decided if I wanted to be an economist - still haven't decided that - a few years ago so I could've taken some more math classes. Also, would've liked to have found this website and forums before, not after, I submitted my applications. Overall, though, I'm pleased. I have a difficult career decision to make.
