Hi! I know I need to prep for the FSO exam. And yes, I said diplomat, not ambassador. (Interesting fact, there’s never been a female ambassador from the US to Russia! Lame).
I know I don’t need to go to law school, I also know I didn’t even have to get a BA. You don’t need anything other than a GED to be an FSO… Having higher education and critical thinking and analytical skills certainly doesn’t hurt, though.
