I haven't had luck with the PhD programs I applied to, so I'm trying to figure out what to do for the next year or two before re-applying.
I've been an RA for a year, but will not be staying on where I am.
I was accepted at an MA program at a school whose PhD I applied to (when I wasn't accepted or even invited to interview, they asked if I wanted to convert my app to an MA app). I haven't visited the school, but was very interested in it when I applied, and there are several Professors whose work I'm interested in.
My other possible option is to be an RA for another year or two (I have an interview at one great place in 2 weeks).
I would be very interested in hearing opinions from people about which they think is better for getting into a PhD program next time around.
