More econ fun

With regards to the wage statistic, it is surprisingly equal, as noted in the low JB statistic, and primarily because the mean and the median are practically the same number. Taking the exponent of the values indicates that the average salary is about 19.60 Shekels an hour (in 1994 Shekels), and 47 of the 85 observations early within +/- 3 Shekels of that wage. This is a very different picture than what is going on today, 15 years after this survey was taken. Also, we can see from a simple scatter plot that the higher paying jobs are the more professional ones, corresponding to occupational codes 00 – 19. More importantly, I have been progressing with graduate internship applications. Here is the list of what has been officially applied to already:
NERA, LECG, Brattle Group, Frontier Economics, Greylock McKinnen, The Fed (Boston/NYC), JE Austin, UNECE, World Bank, IFC, CGD

Here is what still needs to be applied to:
European Investment Bank, Brookings Institute (something was wrong with their site, so I couldn't apply today), CEPR, IIE, SEC, OMB, CBO, CEA, BEA, Finca International, Navigant, CRAI, London Economics, and a number of smaller econ consulting boutiques.

I have till the end of the month, so plenty of time.
