Hello, would be grateful for some feedback! Also, if you have any ideas for schools that would be a good fit for me, I am making my decisions inarguably last minute and could still be swayed to different programs. A program that tends to a more critical/less conservative direction is a huge plus.
Program: MA International Affairs or Human Rights (making last minute decisions atm)
Interests: Human Rights and US Foreign Policy, Latin America
Schools Applying To: Fletcher, Korbel, AU, SIPA (and open to suggestions)
Undergrad Institution: UCLA
Undergrad GPA: 3.87
Undergrad Major: Anthropology with a minor in Public Policy
GRE: Have not actually taken it yet, but my practice tests are looking around 152Q 163V
Age: 25
Languages: English, Spanish (conversational), French (basic)
Work Experience: Here is where I am most confused, honestly it's allover the place. My main work for the past few years has been in Outdoor Education and Tour Guiding. However, during college I interned for 3 years with the American Cancer Society on a state proposition campaign, I also interned post-college with a digital media strategy firm for political clients in DC. I volunteered full time for a while with a humanitarian group that works on the US/Mexican border (and is majorly controversial, I feel like it could be a big bonus or a big negative depending on who looks at it), am currently very involved (Executive Assitant to the President) in a new anti modern slavery NGO in Geneva, and have done volunteer work with refugees in Greece. I've also spent very large employment gaps traveling.
LoRs: President of NGO I'm working with now & college professor (who I am not still close with and can't guarantee an out of this world letter, I screwed this one up, and didn't stay close to my college professors)
SoP: Not yet done, but I think I can weave my odd experience into a pretty compelling story that directly relates to my academic interest
Concerns: Basically no quantitative coursework, low GRE quant score, unusual mix of experience, not stellar academic LoR
