<p>I’ve already done looked at all of that & I’m quite aware that the job prospects are bleak for someone wanting to teach at the college/university level. Having said that I’d content even if I was teaching at my current college or UTPA (the other local). My passion is in that subject so everything I’m doing now is with an eye towards entering a top school for graduate work. For my particular field of history I’d be looking at Harvard, Princeton, University of Chicago (my 1st choice). That is the reason I’m so interested in entering one of the 3 Texas schools, but only if I could get in to their Honors Program. The odds are stacked against me in almost every so, so I have had to lay down a blueprint for everything I need to do. Basically it’s exactly what you have already stated. Hopefully, come Fall 2014 I’ll be at one of these schools in Texas enrolled in an Honors Program.
Thanks for the feedback, & I would greatly appreciate any other advice/feedback.</p>
