Hi there,
I got my BA in Art History outside the US/UK and now am considering applying for grad programs in the US. In undergrad, it was never suggested to specialize in a specific area and I took courses that covered a broad range of subject areas. Now I'm looking at further study, I've found a lot of advice on choosing schools based on your subject area, preferred faculty etc. and I'm feeling really self-conscious about my lack of specialization.
So, how did you find your specialization? How did you figure out what direction you wanted to go in? Asking "What interests you?" hasn't been very helpful to me: I'm interested in everything! I've also been out of school for a couple of years in teaching positions, so that is adding to the difficulty.
Looking for some realistic advice.
thanks
