Without loss of generality, this trivially follows and is left for the reader as exercise

Economics September 16th, 2009

Economics is not Mathematics, even though there is a lot of Math in it. Especially Calculus and Real Analysis are important for any serious student of economics and in that course you are likely going to get familiar with phrases like….

It is easy to see that…
Obviously…
Immediate. *
…and the result follows.
As a result, we find that…
One easily verifies that…
The proof is left to the reader. *
The proof is left as an exercise.*
….and the X theorem completes the proof.
Clearly…
It can be shown that…
Trivially…
The proof is standard.
…the rest of the proof follows the same line.
…by a trivial argument…

Dear Scott, yes that type of data would be amazing and I quite enjoy what you did with mapbox.

I gave it another go,

This is great! Branch-level data would be better, but this is at least a start. CMF and MFIN also have maps on their sites, which could yield more useful information. We also did something similar for Nigeria recently, maybe you will find that useful: http://www.themix.org/publications/mix-microfinance-world/2011/08/mapping-nigerian-microfinance-banks

For what it’s worth, this was a helpful tutorial on getting address info from APIs that we’ve used: http://support.mapbox.com/kb/tilemill/converting-addresses-in-spreadsheets-to-custom-maps-in-tilemill

  Moin…ist wahrscheinlich schon zu spät, aber ja — nur der Mathe Teil ist wirklich wichtig, wenn es bei dir um eine Bewerbung für einen PhD oder anderen post-graduate Kurs in Economics geht. In der Regel fordern die Universitäten ja ohnehin noch einen weiteren Sprachnachweis.
  
  Viel Erfolg.

  Hi,
  du erähnst eine Vermutung (“beim GRE zählt wohl allein der Matheteil”) in deinem obrigen Post. Kannst du diese mittlerweile bestätigen?
  Bin auch sehr an einem Stuium in England interessiert, das Problem ist meines Erachtens nur die verbal-section beim GRE, da diese für einen Ausländer doch nur sehr schwierig zu schaffen ist.
  Vielen Dank für deine Antwort im Voraus.
  Beste Grüße
  Timo
