Constant PhD rejections. Hey all. I hope you're all doing well. I didnt really know who to turn to so I thought I'd share my experience in the last few months since September. I'm in the UK and I've achieved a first in my undergrad(biomed) and got a merit in my MSc(cancer). I've applied for about 8 PhD positions but I haven't even gotten through the first screening process even once. Because of current circumstances I havent been able to get feedback. I feel really lost and confused and I dont know who to turn to or what to do next, the PhDs out there currently aren't in my field and I just spend my time checking my emails hoping for something that isn't there. How many tries did it take for you guys? Should I be doing something else? I didnt really know how to word this or put this but I hope there's some people out there in my position. A few of my friends got into PhD positions in the first month and its really crushing. | 2d9d654029412b7badf07fc06c48a90ad163b5a4f296c7f76da7f1b39711395f | [

I'm in the UK and I've achieved a first in my undergrad(biomed) and got a merit in my MSc(cancer). I've applied for about 8 PhD positions but I haven't even gotten through the first screening process even once. Because of current circumstances I havent been able to get feedback. I feel really lost and confused and I dont know who to turn to or what to do next, the PhDs out there currently aren't in my field and I just spend my time checking my emails hoping for something that isn't there. How many tries did it take for you guys? Should I be doing something else? I didnt really know how to word this or put this but I hope there's some people out there in my position. A few of my friends got into PhD positions in the first month and its really crushing.",

"content": "You're getting some great advice on this thread regarding how to apply. Just to throw my comments in, (1)make sure you have contacted the academic staff you wish to work with--I received one rejection simply because the PhD supervisor was told to reduce his workload before moving institutions... nothing to do with me. If you are struggling or have any questions regarding who to contact, find the PGR admissions tutor and ask them. (2) your materials should address the 3Ps: person, place, project. Essentially you need to address why it needs to be you (what you bring & how you could contribute), why it needs to be the place (often neglected... why this institution/lab), and why this project (research proposal, addressing the studentship requirements, etc etc). (3) remember, everyone is impressive. Everyone has degrees. You need to show why you would be more successful and a better fit. Make it less of a \"pick e! pick me!\" exercise and more of a \"here's why I'm your best option\"",

Universities switching to online education for 2020-2021. International students, will you still go for it or defer? Any advice appreciated. Hello guys, I am an applicant for a 1-year full time Master's Programme (Int. Relations/Politics), looking to study abroad and to settle there for good after my graduation. I got informed the other day that the University that I applied to (Dutch university, but I have also applied for a Scottish one and I have been accepted) will be switching to online teaching until January 2021, at least. So, I really don't know what I should do here. I have been planning for this for 2 years now and I was really hoping to migrate abroad and start a new life there (obviously I need to network and find a job). What would you do if you were me? What will you do if you are already in a position like me? | b74486f340f3480f44906125d61566204fd467badac5429ed73e9406b2afdeaf | [

The government has also just announced today that they will be loosening the current measures (high schools are reopening, restaurants gradually as well). This is not to say that there isn’t still a high likelihood that teaching will be online at the start of the academic year, but hopefully things will continue to improve. It would seem unlikely that you will be able to completely escape having to take at least some online classes if you are set on starting in September - there will be a similar situation in Scotland, and most other countries in Europe most likely. I would let your choice be guided by the university which is the best fit for you based on the programme, and whether you see yourself settling in the country afterwards.",

"content": "I studied in Glasgow and it was the best decision I ever made. Even if you don't end up studying there, please come and visit! I love Scotland, so obviously I'm a little biased ;) Nicola Sturgeon (first minister of scotland) is pretty forward thinking when it comes to most things, I'm hoping that education is one of them as well. She is aware of the impact of online learning on universities, so hopefully they'll be making a few more measures clear in the near future on how to handle it. As far as I am aware, she was the first in the UK to plan an exit strategy, and is hoping to lift the lockdown in phased stages, so there is a possibility you may be able to migrate after all. The only bad thing about Scotland is that it is still in the UK (for now, although I will be voting for independence when the time comes) and their bureaucracy might become a little more difficult to navigate for people coming in to the country. But honestly, the UK government is so incompetent and lazy I can't imagine this happening any time soon The Netherlands is great: Leiden is a quieter area but its beautiful as well. Even if it is online learning, I'm sure that wouldn't be a barrier to still be able to move there and start to put down some new roots. Sure it'll be easier to stay home until January and you would probably save a lot of money, but there are still flights within the EU that means you can still move there and explore the country, even though it will be a weird first few months if you dont have any on-campus lectures Also, I would argue that online teaching is largely redundant, not just because it's hard, but because teaching is only about 10% of a masters. Most of it will be your own research and readings, and how you decide to tie it together. I'm lucky that my masters is coursework-based, and I've actually been using the lectures as a VERY rough guide to what I actually want to research and what I actually want to say in my essays I moved to Belfast to do my 1-year MSc. I can't tell you what to do obviously, but what I will say is that a course that lasts only one year is really not a lot of time and it goes by way faster than you think it will. By this point I thought I would have done more, met more people, tasted more restaurants, but the truth is that you do get caught up in coursework and just trying to meet the new expectations. Be adventurous if you want to be! It's all about the chances you get and what you decide to do with them.",

That said, if you have a stable job right now, I'd definitely think twice about leaving that. The field you're trying to go into will be especially impacted at the end of this.",

anyone have traditions for celebrating their academic successes? I’m a PhD student and my first publication is a book chapter coming out in December. I’m proud of my work, but don’t really want to come across as bragging by posting about it or throwing a party or something crazy. I was thinking I’d like to do a little something special just for myself to acknowledge my success, and thought it would be nice to do something I could make into a career-long tradition every time I publish (🤞🏻).

"content": "The refusal to play overwork olympics with the other grad students, even when tempted. The refusal to get involved with toxic (but interesting) individuals, even when tempted. Excellent self-care--good sleep, good food, healthy lifestyle, plenty of marijuana for when those all crumble, coupled with the awareness that alcoholism and amphetamine abuse are a pervasive problem within academia and should be avoided. Support from friends and/or family-- those are precious commodities and should be cultivated if possible A well-stocked snack drawer. A back-up emergency snack drawer. Comfort with contacting professors and especially your advisor, and especially when they appear to be terrifying individuals who dwell in the realm of the gods. Familiarity with all available campus resources, from libraries to places that have food or coffee available at all times. Hobbies outside of academia--seriously! I highly recommend role-playing games because A. academics into rpgs are easy to find and tend to be interesting people, and B. there is nothing on earth that better prepares you for teaching that running an rpg as a Dungeon Master--literally the same skillset--prepping materials, facilitating a group discussion, leading the group to a planned or foregone conclusion while keeping them convinced that they got there off their own accord and creativity, etc. but without having to deal with the sink or swim intensity of learning to teach by actually teaching. A plan B, if academia turns out horrible--this could mean another advisor, department, university or another career path. All such changes are doable, even if challenging. People can and do make such changes. Making certain to set aside time to remind yourself why you enjoy whatever it is you do--don't study literature and stop reading fiction for fun. I started to **hate** art at some point during my dissertation, but the hate wore off whenever I got myself to walk around a museum for fun. The realization that gradschool is a marathon, not a sprint, and that conserving your energy and resources (including money) is the only way to make it to the end--the other option is inevitable burnout. Finally, if your advisor sucks-if they make you uncomfortable, make impossible demands, act cruelly or irrationally or arbitrarily etc.-trust yourself and get a new advisor--there are plenty of good, supporting, caring advisors out there and plenty of horrible people who exploit grad students. Don't stay with abusive advisors--they will fuck you up and leave you with no options. Find someone better, ask them if you can be their advisee, and leave the bad one for good.",

(3) Don't think that long hours in the lab make you somehow amazing. Efficient use of time is much more important. The absolute best students are those who can do (1) and (2) and still go home at 5pm.",
