No one can be sure...it's too early to give up hope!!!i'm also an applicant for OSU who have't heard anything yet..let's hope for the best!

Sorry to hear that..no changes with my application status so far...good luck with your other applications!

Notified through email?

Through email????What's happening with my OSU CP application?

Did you apply for ND? it is my dream school!! I prefer it to Yale...i hope i didn't misspell my e-mail account......

By e-mail? i haven't yet received any result from any schools..thanks for sharing your result and i'll keep my fingers crossed for your other results!

I hope so! I have qualifying exam for master's thesis next next saturday...and i don't want to be interrupted by the result..either good or bad!

Anyone heard from Notre Dame?

Wow,congrats!!!!!!

Do you mind telling us which school gave you another acceptance?

Hi. Is there anyone who can help me with my sop? I'm applying for pol.sci PhD..southeast asia and female political leadership. I just finished my 1st draft. Please help me before i go too far!

Hi, I'm struggling to devise my writing sample. I am not satisfied with my termpapers for undergrad and MA course, so I hope to write a new one. By the by, can a literature review -- analyzing articles dealing with the issue of my interest,comparing and contrasting the view and assumptions, and pointing out some flaws or shortcoming of those view -- can be a writing sample?

Thanks for all your comments. i was actually interested in women in civil war..strong interest in feminism. however most of the faculty members in my grad school were worried about my 'marketability'...and there are few profs who have similar research interest in pol sci besides those in gender studies deps. i once took an undergrad course in ir with strong emphasis in quant..and i started to abhor those strange? greek words and everything..so i avoided quant in my MA and i start to realize my weakness.. Anyway i'm more than willing to learn stats. i hope it would help to answer my questions. thanks!

oopps sorry!! i didn't mean to click "-"!!!! i'm sorry. what can i do to cancel that click?

hi, now i'm totally despondent. I've read through a lot of articles in IR and civil war, and found out that researches without/with little quantititve method are really hard to find. I know the academic penchant for quantitive method in IR, but didn't expect this much difficulty to find right scholars to study with. Of course, I would learn quantititive method but i'm political philosophy-turn- IR student, so I have only scanty statistics skill at this point. Do you know anyone who use less numbers in IR? plz tell me.

let me! PM me

have you done with your SoP? if you want let me be another reviewer.

if you still want another critique, let me be the one to give you i'm also applying for IR programs.

i'm more than willing to do that !

Oh, it depends. The school I attend does that.

Thank you for your encouraging reply...now i have some hope to go on!
