Econometrics is something I have a special interest in because it is a must for estimating, say, the effect of oil prices on the value of the Dollar or any other currency.

I am mostly worried about the articles, are the articles that I am using used correctly? Am I missing any articles? But if there is something else that I missing, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, but what do you think about the articles?

The articles were OK. What was wrong is the word "say".

 The sentence read like you were casually saying it, not writing it. It was not gramatically correct.

 It's fine, but don't capitalize dollar.

 You're correct in saying that it was conversational, but you're not correct in saying that it was not grammatically correct.
