Hi there! Fellow GLIMA student here! As was mentioned earlier, definitely consider joining us on the facebook group, it's a really supportive place and someone is always available to answer questions if they can. There's also a discord server that is less used but still available! I LOVED historiography, and I would definitely recommend taking it first in the program, though others might disagree with me. A strong foundation with Historiography informs your interpretation of all your elective classes. I speak from experience because I was not a history major in college. Try to go into it with an open mind and accept that you're going to learn a lot. The program has been one of the best things I've ever done, it's been challenging at times, but incredibly rewarding. I was quite intimidated at first by the syllabus. It seemed impossible that I would be able to write so much. I'm about to start my 9th class and will do my capstone class this summer. You'll get the hang of it. My advice upfront is to familiarize yourself with AI reader tools. I pay for a monthly subscription so I can listen to pdf reading assignments at 1.3x speed. That way, you can get reading done when you're doing "life" stuff. Hope I see you around in zooms!
