I am in my final year of my Bachelor's degree in Biology from a third world country (Uni ranking 350-400), I am starting to look at a master's degree across Europe. Applying to Oxford/cambridge/imperial didn't even cross my mind. But I recently thought about it, however I don't know if I should even put the effort, time and money into an application if there's no way I can get in logically. I am also kind of embarrassed to even ask my recommenders to write a recommendation letter if it is such a reach. Is there some kind of litmus test to know whether I should even bother?

I know it's undergrad so it probably isn't that huge a deal, but I got accepted to CSU channel Islands online program and Arizona State online program. (I had also applied to sjsu online and there is some funny stuff going on with their admission right now but it's provisional accepted right now) So now I am in this back and forth of which college to go with. I am in CA and do plan to go masters. It kind of seems that ASU is ranked better and has more specialization options, but I'd need to be careful which classes I did to ensure I'm set up well for licensure in California. Channel Islands really isn't ranked (on some places but is on others?) but is streamlined for California licensure. It seems like cost wise CI is lowest, then ASU, then SJSU. Anyone have insight to any of these three or any advice?

Hi all, I just started a grad school (counselling) about a week ago and was curious, what’s your best grad school advice? I know time will fly and want to make the best out of experience without burning out!

Just bachelors in biology. Give tips and ways to earn 100k without additional schooling. Maybe one year only.
