Hello everyone,
I am an international student from Turkey, and this is my senior year in a top Turkish university, Sociology department. I'm planning to apply for PhD and Master's programs for the Autumn 2009 term. My overall GPA is 3.35, major GPA is 3.50 and the GPA of last 60 credits of work is 3.55.
I haven't taken the GRE yet, but I guess my verbal score will be a moderate one and the math score will be quite high. I'll try to get LOR's from professors who know me closely and write a strong and passionate statement of purpose. I'm interested in qualitative methods, ethnography, political and medical sociology.
Which programs would admit me? Which ones should I go for? :?:
I'm planning to apply for the following ones:
Chicago MAPSS
Columbia PhD
Yale PhD
SUNY Stony Brook M.A.
Syracuse M.A.
British Columbia M.A.
NYU Humanities and Social Thought M.A. program (or should I go for the Sociology program?)
UW Madison MSc
SUNY Binghamton M.A.
Washington Seattle PhD
John's Hopkins PhD
LSE MSc programs on "Sociology" and "Culture and Society"
Indiana Bloomington PhD
Virginia PhD
Does anyone have any more suggestions? Am I too unrealistic? Which ones would admit me?
All advice is strongly appreciated Thank you!
