  1. Basically, I have no idea what to do. I'm an American who did his undergrad in English Lang+Lit at Oxford. These are the programs I've been accepted to— Chinese Studies (Oxford, MA) South Asian Studies (Oxford, MA) MAPSS (MA in Sociology/Politics) (1yr MA, U Chicago) Economics (MA, U Tokyo) (only $5000 per year) Urban Planning (1 yr MA, MIT) I'm not to interested in doing a PhD. Rather, I'd like to eventually work for a large NGO, like the UN, a Development Bank, possibly the US foreign service. Maybe I'd go into consulting, or as a last resort apply for a training contract at a law firm in the UK. I have no interest in IB. Can anybody weigh in on this decision? Will I get some crazy boost from coming out of Tokyo fluent in Japanese and with an Econ degree? Or will Chicago or MIT carry infinitly more weight in the world of work? Should I be jumping on the development bandwagon by doing a degree linked to China or India. Would that actually make me more employable than having a degree from Asia? What would you do?
