I got an offer to from SOAS to do my MA in international studies and diplomacy and I really want to go for it, but I am a bit worried that going to SOAS will be all work and no play. I have also gotten an offer from Leeds to do an MA in international studies, and I would like to accept the offer, but am afraid that there wont be a hint of diplomacy in it, which will decrease my chances at working in foreign affairs. Please, i would like to know what the difference is between the courses.
If you're worried about the diplomacy content then go to SOAS. I know people who've done undergrad there and they worked hard but still had plenty of fun! I realise an MA will be harder but if it's the course you want then I think you'd regret not doing it.. Also would being based in London be helpful for making contacts etc? I don't know, just a thought..
