Hey, so I’m currently applying to master’s programs in history (my goal is to teach at community college level). I’m a resident of Philly, and am looking to apply to UPenn and Temple. UPenn would definitely be the dream, I’m just nervous that my undergrad gpa and gre scores are too low. I had a 3.4 in undergrad (at Rutgers University) and received a 321 on the GRE (162 verbal, 155 quant, 4 awa). I’m considering taking the test again to raise my writing score, I definitely panicked a bit with the time crunch lol. Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks for sharing, pretty depressing reality. I’ve been considering doing the exact thing you recommended not to do (paying for a graduate degree in history). I’ve wanted to get an M.A. because I hope to teach at the community college level. Any advice? Feel free to be brutally honest lol
