PhD
Don’t do a PhD. If you’re not sure, don’t even try. It can be a lifesucking experience if you’re not the person for the job. I’m honestly trying to measure up to expectations, and the advice I get from those who’ve finished their dissertation is the same: Don’t Give Up. Interestingly, most of them tell me it took them two years to get their dissertation done. I hope to finish mine faster than that.
