Happy SOPHAS day! Now that the application is open, I figured we could get a new thread going.
Undergraduate School: Private liberal arts college in Northeast
Undergrad GPA/Major GPA: 3.38/3.49 (SOPHAS verified)
Major/minor: Psychology (B.A.) major/Medical Humanities minor (public health focus)
Grad GPA (if applicable): n/a
Grad studies (if applicable): n/a
GRE(including date taken): V-161 (88th %) Q-160 (76th %) AW-4.0 (60th%) (taken 8/25/17)
Experience/research:
-3 years as a sexual assault prevention peer educator (during undergrad)
-1 year as research assistant in infant psychology lab
-one summer as an intern at the New York State Department of Health
-1 year as a hotline advocate for survivors of sexual assault (local)
-2+ years at federal healthcare consulting firm (by the time I start classes)
Letters of Rec: my supervisor from my current position, 2 from 2 different college professors (one a public health professor, one not)
Interested in: women’s health policy, maternal/child health, reproductive health/rights, contraceptive access
I currently live/work in the DC area, so GW, Maryland (online), and UNC (online) are attractive options because I could keep working!
