I have recieved a scholarship from a Canadian university whch dedicated to just 20 the best students in M.A. and PhD in all programs. I am proud of myself to achieve it because I do not know any one from Iran to get the scholarship in humanities fields. We have many engineering students that they can be full-funded in their education but in social science and humanities it is rare.
In Iran, the most talented students choose applied sciences and the most foolish choose humanities. But I should confirm that I am the special exception; I am a smart one who selects humanities eagerly.
