Hello all,
I am a bit unsure about the type of program I should be going for, but I am interested in comparative. I want to get into a top 30 program but don't know exactly how high I should be applying and my adviser has not been of much help and most of my professors graduated ages ago. Right now I am looking at a Fall 2020 start. I am graduating this year and will be working for a year in between.
Undergraduate Institution: Large R1 State School
Major: Political Science
GPA: 3.9 / 4
GRE: have not taken it yet
LOR: Will have 3 solid LoR from tenured faculty
Research: RA for 3 semesters, wrote a solid senior thesis
Math: Several stats classes, calc 1 and 2, 1 research methods class, R, STATA
Other: black female minority, generic summer internships, no crazy awards
