Just got an email from my SOCI 340 “Criminology” instructor regarding my grade on my theoretical analysis paper and my final grade. The last line of the email was the greatest compliment any instructor has ever given me:

“Congratulations and perhaps you should consider graduate work.”

In all of my considerations for grad school, I have always had doubts about my own abilities to handle graduate level work, but this gives me more confidence in my abilities, especially since in the same email I am told of my “analytic” abilities.
