@@BrisaMarie THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I'm really excited to start the program, since UCLA was my top choice among the few universities I applied for! The program I'm joining is the PhD in Spanish and Portuguese (Literature track)! My research area is Latin American literature. I know this is an interest we have in common! I remember when you were in Brazil visiting the Carolina Maria de Jesus museum. And I remember you commenting in some videos that you were also taking Spanish and Portuguese courses, if I'm not mistaken. That's amazing! I study Cuban literature, but I also love Brazilian literature! As I'm very interested in research practices, I'm also following the videos about your post-doc journey at UCI! Believe me, your work here on KZread makes all the difference to those who are pursuing a PhD career, especially as it's usually a bit of a lonely process. Please keep bringing us this wonderful content! We really appreciate it!

Idk if you answered this before, but how did you choose your masters program? I’m interested in a masters program in the humanities, but not sure how to choose which programs to apply to.

Howdy, Honestly, I just chose my masters because i had no idea what else to do with life, it was an ivy league institution, and it had a late application deadline. I would NOT suggest doing things how I did! While it did work out in the long run, I could have had a much better experience had I did actual research. (I just didn't know any better) With that said, i do have this video that talks about the differences between masters programs and how to choose which kind kzread.info/dash/bejne/aqeK1axpYrG1o7g.htmlsi=NHJ44A2YHEEcsj9i but if you already know what kind and are trying to narrow down to which programs this video is better! kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZGhkzdaCm9G5mKg.htmlsi=3DRyIe6-dbK_Em1O GOOD LUCK! You got this!
