Quantitative Methods Comprehensive Examination (1 week after finals)
General
Study Group Information
Winter 2006
Time: Tuesdays,
3:30-5:30
Location: Dodd 78 (Backup
room: Bunche 2249)
Details: At the beginning of this quarter, we will be meeting weekly
until we complete all of the questions from Professor Hahn's part.
(Comps from 2005S, 2004F, 2004S, 2003S, 2003F) Afterwards, depending
on how much progress we make in Katerina's class, we will be meeting either
weekly or bi-weekly to complete the relevant questions. If there is
extra time, we will work through Professor Imbens' comp questions in hopes
that they will be similar to what Hahn might test us on. Next quarter
we will finish up the remainder of Katerina's questions and gradually work
through what few questions there are of Buchinsky's.
In order to ensure easy
accessibility, we ask that, in addition to presenting your questions in the
study group, you also prepare a pdf handout of your solutions which I will
post on this site. It will be good practice to start typing up
solutions in that 1) it will help increase your familiarity with a program
such as Scientific Workplace and 2) it pressures you into organizing your
thoughts a little more. I have provided a list of the more commonly
used commands in Scientific Workplace available
here.
In addition, Hisa suggested that we all use a common header for our pdfs.
I have included a template .tex file that works for Scientific
Word/Workplace. It should also work for any other tex editor you might
have.

The assignments are listed
below. Each section is assigned to two people to help promote
collaboration. The presenters may decide how to allocate the
responsibilities of presenting and typing up the solutions. It is
hoped that everyone in attendance will have attempted all the relevant
questions.
