Hello everyone! Some of you may remember me from a few months back... after finishing my undergrad, I've been busy moving, traveling and adjusting to a new job. But... I'm back! This time thinking about my Masters degree. (?!?!?!)
I have done a little research, but not much and thought I would ask all you very qualified, experienced people on here for some help.
First, how do you recommend choosing/finding a school? I'm not particular about where I get my degree from--I'm just interested in the continued education. I would like to find a program I could do online, probably one to two classes at a time, with a focus on International Relations.
Second, I know I need to take the GRE. Any advice? What is the test like, what resources should I use for studying, how much time should I expect to spend preparing, etc? Also, is it necessary/beneficial to take any of the subject exams?
I feel a little guilty just asking you all, because I know I can find answers to these questions somewhere on the internet. But I thought if any of you have experience, it will probably be more beneficial than Google. And I can always try that later on, if I need it.
