Hi everybody!
I'm hoping somebody is able to give me feedback on how competitive my application is for the FIFSW 2-Year MSW Program.
I completed my BA in Psychology in 2017. My average in my last year was 92, but it drops substantially to about the mid-80s range within the last 10 credits depending on whether you only count senior-level credits or not. I did an undergrad thesis on cross-cultural bullying which I've since published. I also have another publication in a Springer encyclopedia. Since then, I've been doing my MA in a related field, and I'm still doing cross-cultural bullying research, as my thesis is about the psychosocial experiences of girls in unpredictable and harsh environments who go through puberty earlier than their peers. When the application deadline comes around, I'll have 5 (maybe more!) conferences to put on my CV. I have about 1000 hours of working in social services working with children with LDs and ADHD, and well over that if you including my teaching, research and other employment hours. I also have roughly 400 community volunteer hours. I have been a research assistant in 4 labs, and my most current research methodology mark is a 90. I'm also currently auditing PhD level stats, and the professor for this course is one of my references. My other references are my current MA supervisor and my work supervisor.
Let me know what you think!
