How much do pre-docs provide mobility between undergrad state schools and top PhD programs? Does pr(admission) at top PhD programs go up significantly if the smart state school student pre-docs? If admission committees behave this way, shouldn't we let students have this chance?

[Melissa S. Kearney @kearney_melissa]

I’m seeing lots of ads from faculty in top/rich Econ departments this week hiring full-time pre-docs. You sure you all can’t just admit these talented students into your PHD programs, let them train and coauthor with you, and get on with their adult/professional lives? 🤷‍♀��
