Hello all, I am currently serving in the military and I am looking to utilize the GI Bill once I finish my current enlistment. Considering a dual degree with either law or public policy.
Professional Goals: I am unable to discuss the nature of my work in depth due to this being an open forum, however I can say that my work for the military draws broadly from the research methods and practice of marketing. I would like to transition into marketing or political consulting (hence the dual degree).
UGPA 3.74/4 (Tier 2 Public, usually ranked around 90-110)
Majors: Philosophy, Mathematics
GRAD: MA in Religion (Ivy, GPA not calculated)
GRE V:166 Q:162 W: 4.5 (should I take the GMAT or are these tests given equal value? GMAT conversion places my score at a 700)
Work Experience: One year teaching high school, five years enlisted military (2-3 years in Special Operations, creating political, cultural, and communications products for foreign audiences)
Other relevant factors: intermediate working proficiency in Farsi (Iran) and Dari (Afghanistan)
Reaches: Harvard, Dartmouth, Yale, Duke, Virginia
Targets: Cornell, UNC Chapel Hill, Georgetown
Safeties: Stetson, U of Florida, Florida State
Thanks in advance!
