Thanks, this demystifies Grad school a lot from the perspective of a first generation student. I'm still an undergrad and I love history so that's my major. Considering I spent a semester writing many scholarships, some as long as 2000 words, 10000 words seams very obtainable. After watching your video, I'm seriously considering grad school and learning a language that I'm interested in studying the history for.

I am doing a German dissertation relating to Modern History writing in English. This advice has helped me so much! Particularly when it comes to the advice on narrowing the topic. I have a big topic in mind, but just need to narrow it down.

[@drkristopherlovell]

Excellent! What's the idea for the topic so far?
