I am a student wishing to pursue Ph.D in political science. As I do not have a BA in political science, I decided first to apply to a master's degree. Now I have been admitted to MAPSS at Chicago, and M.A. in political science at Duke. Chicago ranks first in political theory while Duke ranks six. But MAPSS is just a one-year program in Social Sciences, so I'm afraid it cannot best help me prepare for graduate study. What do you think? I appreciate your advise very much!
