I’ve been accepted to the Rothberg International School of Hebrew University! I’m going to start the Ulpan in August. I am ridiculously fired up to get back to school. After a year with Rothberg, I think my Hebrew will be good enough to start courses with HebrewU proper.
Israel, here I come.

GRE
I’m starting to study for the GRE- I finished my math requirements the first year of college, so it’s been a while since I’ve touched such a subject. Anyone have suggestions for preparing for the GRE? I’m giving myself 6-8 weeks, about 2 hours a day in study for it. I’m punching myself for not doing it sooner.
I’m pretty excited about it, honestly, because this is a step for getting my MA in biblical archaeology from Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Hopefully everything works out.
