My experience with yPolitika was beneficial for my academic and professional development. I had a topic that I wanted to write about, but I never had the opportunity to do so in the academic setting. I worked with an editor at yPolitika who provided prompt feedback and crucial guidance since I had no prior experience writing an article, which I found takes a very different set of skills rather than producing a scholarly assignment. The article I wrote allowed me to provide recruiters with a writing sample and the experience was beneficial in my admission to a Master’s program.
