Thanks for all your feedbacks! Just got accepted into NYU! Still waiting on Columbia, but I am very pleased with NYU. @mdiv2014: I'm working on my senior thesis on bills/legislatures that would most efficiently combat sexual assault in the military, so that pretty much shaped my personal statement letter.

I am definitely going to try one more time. But do you think my stats are good enough for NYU's M.A program?

I want to pursue a PhD in Sociology and become a professor/expert in the sociology of the military. First, I'm going to get a Master's in sociology for few reasons and then go for the phd. My #1 choice is Columbia because I liked their curriculum. But what are my chances if: My GPA is 3.8 from a city college (but will become lower if it is converted to Columbia's GPA standards) ROTC cadet Student research assistant for a PhD student working on a senior thesis on some issues in the military honors student volunteer at an emergency shelter for non prof organization and..... a darn awful GRE score.. V:144 Q: 152 I heard that gre for MA in Soc does not really matter. Columbia did not specify a minimum. Should I retake it in 3 weeks (last chance) or just hope that my personal statement letter is good enough?
