blog highlights

I’ve got a lot of posts on this website — here’s a few of my personal favorites:

• the grad school experience: read a post on doing difficult things, or thoughts before the job market, and motivation.

• education: my favorite “teaching” post is my mdrd primer, though I’m also quite fond of quasi-experimental methods and tau.

• how i got here: i chronicled my eventual choice to grad school across three posts (one, two three) during my senior year of undergrad. plenty of musings on values, happiness, life, and much more

• fun potpourri: read about running dormspam-the-game (with Whitney!) or my love letters to chalkboards and whiteboards.¹

1. This post is, somehow, one of the most-read blogs on MIT admissions. A Redditor once referred to it as “the old MIT method”; they were probably unaware it is just the result of a college student’s hyperfixation. ↩
