GoodbyeLenin

Sorry, long time lurker here who just made an account, because I am one of those people who wrote 'uk grads'... It wasn't a long-pondered decision, I did so because I: 1.) saw many people wrote something along the lines of 'Canadian MA / LSE master's / Hong Kong top 3' 2.) genuinely thought this would be more helpful for future applicants to get an idea of the program make-up, however biased the sample may be, as we can then have more granular data than just 'A/U/I' 3.) thought it may encourage future undergraduates from the UK and beyond to directly apply for US programs. The level of information over here is even lower. Most faculty members and students here thought a master's is a necessary condition for entry. I definitely wouldn't have even tried without some strong encouragement and reading this forum, which helped me to understand the American system in countless ways
