My thesis is related to sexual identity politics and I'm debating on whether or not I want to milk my sexual identity; technically, it's what I want to study. Strength of LOR (be honest, describe the process, etc): Have a pool of professors (advisor is one), department heads (advisor is one), employers (head of municipal govt dept)...not worried here. Other: I've worked with underrepresented groups (tutor/mentored students of undocumented Latinos, helped revitalize rural black poor neighborhoods in Alabama after tornadoes), have worked on political campaigns, have undertaken two independent studies (maybe three depending on how the Spring goes)...I've got a lot going for me, but I'm also a bit withered down by my poor GRE scores.
