Niny Khor, an economist from the Asian Development Bank, sent me some links to excellent blogsites that offer good advice for economist wannabees. The first one is offered by Chris Blattman. The other two is by Greg Mankiw (which Chris also has a link), one for undergrads and another for the graduate students.
They offer very helpful advice. Plus, Greg's post also show links to other advices from different renowned economists. Learn and enjoy!
