Graduate School Checklist

My life right now..

This has got to be the most stressful part of grad school.

1. not knowing if you're going to get in.
2. having to fill out ENDLESS paperwork
3. writing a billion essays on yourself and your expertise

So here's what has to be done:

1/2 Write my statement of purpose
√Ask for letters of recommendation
      1/2 Secure letters of recommendation
      ㅁWrite drafts for the professors that don't actually want to write them for you
ㅁApply for assistantships
      ㅁWrite an essay for GRA assistantship
      1/2 Write an essay for the GLA assistantship
ㅁStudy for and retake the GRE
ㅁSend all of my transcripts to the school
1/2 Try and publish my paper
ㅁTry to volunteer more with teaching/refugees
ㅁApply for VISA leader
ㅁFind a roommate and an apartment

as you can tell I'm doing a great job of getting things done...

There are some things that I have partially completed, but nothing is 100%
1/2
