I posted this in another section and was told this is a more appropriate location.
I am starting to put together my applications for the upcoming cycle and am having trouble deciding where to apply and what my likelihood would be of getting in.
Undergrad: 3.36 (3.6 last two years)
GRE: 159V 154Q
Presented at an undergrad research conference, created a scholarship at undergrad, served on a Dean Search Committee
Doing a one-year MA (International Politics and Europe) in the UK 2012-2013
Strong LORs
Interested in political economy and focusing on EU economic integration
So far I plan on applying to: Claremont Graduate Univ., Univ. of Southern California, Michigan State, Boston Univ., UC Santa Barbara, Univ. Nevada Reno and the Univ. of Oregon. What do you think? What schools should I add and which should I remove? Any advice you can give would be appreciated.
