  1. I recently graduated from a fairly prestigious university (top-50) with a BA in Philosophy. I had a 3.5 undergrad GPA with just over a 3.8 in my major (as well as for my final three semesters of undergrad). I completed the degree fairly early (2 years, one semester) last winter and still did not know exactly which direction I wanted to go with it. I am beginning the master's program in Bioethics at Columbia this fall, which I will either complete in the summer or winter of 2015 (depending on a few factors). However, I am also interested in pursuing a degree in public health (specifically, social/behavioral sciences). I am specifically interested in the MS program in Sociomedical Sciences at Columbia and the AM program at Brown in Behavioral and Social Sciences Intervention. Would the completion of either of these programs add significant value to my employability (are they worth the additional cost)? I am not yet sure what specific career I would like to pursue, but I am very interested in work at policy/research organizations. Provided I perform in my current graduate program, would I even have a shot at getting into these programs? My GRE scores are: 156V 157Q 5.0W (should I retake them?) I appreciate any advice you can give, thanks!
  2. I am still fairly undecided, though I am very interested in doing work for policy/research organizations. But does it seem like I have a chance at admission to either of these programs?
