[@mindyoureconomics]

@@shagunpriya1978 yes that is the technical part of any proposal but that is hardly asked in an interview. Focus more on the theoretical portion of your topic and focus more on your subjects. In most of the interviews you'll be asked questions on your subjects only, less emphasis is given to research proposal. there are hundreds of statistical techniques available today you can't get a hang over every technique, but you can get complete in formation about the basic tests like t test f test anova etc. OLS MLE, MOM, simultaneous eqn modelling etc.
