Dear friends, I hope you are doing well.I need your help and guidance and please help me to make the right choice.I want to apply for a Ph.D. in History in the coming fall, and based on my CV, I wanted to know my approximate chances of getting accepted.My bachelor's degree is not related to history, but I have a master's degree in Middle Eastern studies from the best university in my country, which is in the Middle East. Also, I'm studying for my second master's degree in one of the history tracks in Italy, which has a global rank between 100 and 150.
M.A (second one): 3.50 Until now
M.A (first one): 3.50
B.A: Under 3My general focus is on the history of the Middle East, migration, and Islamic societies.I have several courses and conferences in the field of history in my CV and will add a few others to my resume until I apply.I have some important questions and I would appreciate it if you can help me in this regard. According to my CV, do I have the potential to be admitted to one of the universities between the ranks of 40 and 80? (2)Before applying, should we communicate with the desired professor in each university and get his/her positive opinion?(3) Do all departments have interviews in the process of accepting or rejecting an applicant?(4)do you have any important advice or tips? Because I don't have enough information about the details and the admission process of the History course for the Ph.D. in America.
