Thank you. Hmm, I did not do a final thesis. I did the museum work capstone class instead. I am unsure which papers I have done qualify... I have article reviews, term papers, historiography papers, and so forth. Do you mean a paper with only primary sources, like an analysis and dicussion of X legal document from 1765 or something? Also, yes I live in San Francisco. I have only done archival research at a local historical society though.

Hello. Im graduating in Spring from my UG program and would like to start grad school a little over a year later. Can you advise me on how to optimize this "free year"? Presently, 3.1 last 60 units gpa with 3.8 gpa in my major (history). I have two minors, international relations and asian studies. I have not published, instead I pursued public history endevors. Like volunteering at a major museum's asian art section fot ~9 months plus my capstone for uni was producing an exhibition at the local historical society. I was cited as assistant curator and researcher for that. I also am trilingual, english+japanese+spanish. I have to take the GRE and do well in that because of my low gpa. I also am taking the JLPT and should be at N2 level by fall 2016. XP wise, it is trying to find work at museums, historical societies, and libraries. Should I take a graduate level class as well? Anything else? I listed the programs Id like to grt into below. San Francisco State -Museum Studies, MA -World History, MA University of San Francisco -Asia-Pacific Studies, MA San Francisco Art Insitute -Museum studies, MA San José State -Library Science, MS Sacremento State Public History, MA UCLA (hah, but might as well try) -Library Science, MA(S?) U Washington -Library Science, MA(S) -Museum Studies, MA -History, MA U British Columbia -History, MA
