ignacio Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Hello, I am want to apply to a top MPP/MPA (Harvard, Columbia, Berkeley, etc), but I would like to know if I have real chances of being admitted. This is my profile: I am from Argentina and have 27 years old. I have a bachelor and a master degree in economics in Argentina. My work is experience is two year at the national government and two years at the World Bank in Washington dc. I got a pretty good GRE. My weakest aspect are my scores at university ... they aren't that good. Should I apply? Do I have real chances? I know that maybe the best decision is just to apply ... but I would like to know if I have chances. Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorChuy Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Some specific stats would help. Your work experience will definetaly be a plus. International status could also be a big help. You mention that your GPA was not stellar, but as long as your Master's GPA was good you should be okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40404 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Hi Ignacio, The two years of college will matter more than the first few. Its best if your grades are at least going up. Nonetheless, your GRE scores should make up for low college grades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
