My referee just told me he never received the link to upload my letter. The deadline passed a hour ago. I don't know what to do. I am so hurt right now. I put blood in my application and I really felt like I had a good chance to get in. I sent everything in 15 days before the deadline, confirmed my referees availability to provide a reference, sent them a draft when asked and offered a reminder before the deadline. Yet, one of the two informed me that he never received the link or the form -- a hour after the official deadline. I panicked and immediately contacted admissions, sent them the reference he forwarded me (without reading it) and gave him the contact so that he can reach out and explain the issue. He didn't answer yet, but man, I feel awful. I am afraid my chances are gone and getting paranoid about the other reference as well --- I haven't heard from my other referee after he confirmed his availability and assumed that everything was going fine, but now I am second-guessing everything. What else can I do? Any tip? | 6e5935d4ae959909605d2ce6639b827ecd051e3ea1a10f05909593b291250be6 | [

Advice please -- I don't think I'm qualified to be a postdoc in my field I'll be graduating within a year and the job market is looming. At this point in my career, I don't think I'm qualified to be a postdoc. I can get specific if you think it's relevant, but what it comes down to is that there are some skills that are essential to succeeding in my field, and I am just not very good at them (e.g., programming). I am a smart person and I know my field inside and out, but I'm just not very good at these things. If something depends on it I can limp through and get a program written with a great deal of help from google and better programmers, but it will never be as good as one written by someone who knows what they're doing. I always thought I would develop these skills as a grad student but the truth is 5 years have passed and I'm still barely competent. I wouldn't hire me as a postdoc knowing how bad I am at these things. I don't know what to do. My PI is no help. Any advice would be appreciated. | cc4aed78b6727661604c7f7fc539cb3ca438d61b1db706de09457949d6218234 | [

If something depends on it I can limp through and get a program written with a great deal of help from google and better programmers, but it will never be as good as one written by someone who knows what they're doing. I always thought I would develop these skills as a grad student but the truth is 5 years have passed and I'm still barely competent. I wouldn't hire me as a postdoc knowing how bad I am at these things. I don't know what to do. My PI is no help. Any advice would be appreciated. | cc4aed78b6727661604c7f7fc539cb3ca438d61b1db706de09457949d6218234 | [

Just passed my defense and want to get my advisor a gift. He's been extremely supportive (financially and otherwise), so I need it to be really good. Any ideas? I just passed my dissertation defense this week. My chair has gone above and beyond these past few years--mentoring me, co-authoring with me, reading and improving my work, and even giving me financial support ($9K) out of his chair position, which would have otherwise gone to his salary, and which allowed me to stay another year and finish the program. I want to do something special for him to thank him for everything, but all my ideas are inadequate. He likes tennis, vacationing in the Northeast U.S. (where he's from), and reading up on business news. Any ideas on what I could do for him? Price limit would be around $1,000. It doesn't necessarily have to be related to any of the above interests. | fbcb31c6fba35b0d467fb97f269b491388122bb0bd1f8fe9fb93416101a30d25 | [

Just passed my defense and want to get my advisor a gift. He's been extremely supportive (financially and otherwise), so I need it to be really good. Any ideas? I just passed my dissertation defense this week. My chair has gone above and beyond these past few years--mentoring me, co-authoring with me, reading and improving my work, and even giving me financial support ($9K) out of his chair position, which would have otherwise gone to his salary, and which allowed me to stay another year and finish the program. I want to do something special for him to thank him for everything, but all my ideas are inadequate. He likes tennis, vacationing in the Northeast U.S. (where he's from), and reading up on business news. Any ideas on what I could do for him? Price limit would be around $1,000. It doesn't necessarily have to be related to any of the above interests. | fbcb31c6fba35b0d467fb97f269b491388122bb0bd1f8fe9fb93416101a30d25 | [

Having doubts about starting a PhD Hey everyone, I’m just looking for some advice because I’m feeling pretty conflicted and unsure about whether I’m on the right path. I’m just finishing up a (notoriously intense) MSc programme in neuroscience and have an offer of a PhD at a prestigious school starting in October. I’ll preface this by saying I am TIRED. This whole year I’ve been firing on all cylinders, barely any time for hobbies and friends, just like the rest of my cohort. So I appreciate that it’s a caveat and a lot of advice will be for me to take a break. However, I’m having doubts for more reasons than just burnout. 1. I want to have children, and will be in my early 30s upon finishing the PhD. Extending the PhD would not be ideal, I’d prefer to just finish it and get it out of the way so that I can start working. 2. My main aim here is to get the PhD and go start making money in industry because I have been a broke public service employee/student since leaving school, and want to make some real income to fund an enjoyable lifestyle. I find my research area interesting, and there’s a lot that can be done, but it’s also difficult. Often, I feel like the dumbest person in the room. My PI says that a PhD opens a lot of doors, but then I see lots of people without them doing just as well if not better. What is special about a PhD that it’s worth undertaking? 3. I need some semblance of work life balance in the long term. In the MSc it was very ‘pump and dump’ in terms of coursework, with periods of insane work and then some downtime. Is a PhD like this? My last job was insane levels of stress and very high accountability for low pay. What’s the likelihood of experiencing a more or less consistent workload? Would appreciate hearing about people’s experiences, regrets, advice. | ff2df878ee7d0911fd772aab544b8db47564ebb77247fc165bab45b90deed2fc | [

Having doubts about starting a PhD Hey everyone, I’m just looking for some advice because I’m feeling pretty conflicted and unsure about whether I’m on the right path. I’m just finishing up a (notoriously intense) MSc programme in neuroscience and have an offer of a PhD at a prestigious school starting in October. I’ll preface this by saying I am TIRED. This whole year I’ve been firing on all cylinders, barely any time for hobbies and friends, just like the rest of my cohort. So I appreciate that it’s a caveat and a lot of advice will be for me to take a break. However, I’m having doubts for more reasons than just burnout. 1. I want to have children, and will be in my early 30s upon finishing the PhD. Extending the PhD would not be ideal, I’d prefer to just finish it and get it out of the way so that I can start working. 2. My main aim here is to get the PhD and go start making money in industry because I have been a broke public service employee/student since leaving school, and want to make some real income to fund an enjoyable lifestyle. I find my research area interesting, and there’s a lot that can be done, but it’s also difficult. Often, I feel like the dumbest person in the room. My PI says that a PhD opens a lot of doors, but then I see lots of people without them doing just as well if not better. What is special about a PhD that it’s worth undertaking? 3. I need some semblance of work life balance in the long term. In the MSc it was very ‘pump and dump’ in terms of coursework, with periods of insane work and then some downtime. Is a PhD like this? My last job was insane levels of stress and very high accountability for low pay. What’s the likelihood of experiencing a more or less consistent workload? Would appreciate hearing about people’s experiences, regrets, advice. | ff2df878ee7d0911fd772aab544b8db47564ebb77247fc165bab45b90deed2fc | [

My main aim here is to get the PhD and go start making money in industry because I have been a broke public service employee/student since leaving school, and want to make some real income to fund an enjoyable lifestyle. I find my research area interesting, and there’s a lot that can be done, but it’s also difficult. Often, I feel like the dumbest person in the room. My PI says that a PhD opens a lot of doors, but then I see lots of people without them doing just as well if not better. What is special about a PhD that it’s worth undertaking? 3. I need some semblance of work life balance in the long term. In the MSc it was very ‘pump and dump’ in terms of coursework, with periods of insane work and then some downtime. Is a PhD like this? My last job was insane levels of stress and very high accountability for low pay. What’s the likelihood of experiencing a more or less consistent workload?

Having doubts about starting a PhD Hey everyone, I’m just looking for some advice because I’m feeling pretty conflicted and unsure about whether I’m on the right path. I’m just finishing up a (notoriously intense) MSc programme in neuroscience and have an offer of a PhD at a prestigious school starting in October. I’ll preface this by saying I am TIRED. This whole year I’ve been firing on all cylinders, barely any time for hobbies and friends, just like the rest of my cohort. So I appreciate that it’s a caveat and a lot of advice will be for me to take a break. However, I’m having doubts for more reasons than just burnout. 1. I want to have children, and will be in my early 30s upon finishing the PhD. Extending the PhD would not be ideal, I’d prefer to just finish it and get it out of the way so that I can start working. 2.

Does anyone else get anxious about the social aspect before an important event? What I mean is the 15-20 minutes when people gather around and talk. Sometimes there is food and drink. I HATE that. I’m appreciative of people bringing food and what not but I am a nervous individual and I hate small talk. Today this happened before faculty and first-year students listened to the MA research of the second-years. It gives me bad flashbacks of grad orientation when we all met outside and ate cookies and had beverages. We hardly knew each other. How can I can get over this anxious feeling? If i’m going to continue to be in academia I wish to know how to function normally. Am I the only one who feels this way? I’m in therapy and it helps a little. | 81180da6b62d6b956f8a32756e12f57e82bfd25588a2b33306f75dec4428dc2d | [

About to start a PhD and I’m scared Hello everyone, I just finished my undergrad and will start my PhD this fall in environmental engineering. Long story short, I’m scared of entering grad school. My first year will be me taking classes to complete the MS requirements so I’m not worried about that part as much, but I’m anxious about the following >4 years. For context, both my universities are in the US. I enjoy doing research, I feel comfortable in the lab, but at the same time I don’t think I’m ready to commit to academia yet, mainly because I don’t plan to be a professor (even though people have said I am good at teaching; have done tutoring and TA-ing during undergrad). On the other hand, I’m not sure I am cut off for the industry. I did an internship in consulting (not in the US) for a summer and I was so intimidated by the work culture. Maybe it would be different if my internship was in the US? I’m not sure. The thing is, I don’t know what I want to do after grad school. I’m pretty much open to anything, like if there is an opportunity given to me I’d take it (after considerations, of course). A research position like a research scientist sounds good to me, but I’m an international student so perhaps my eligibility for the job is limited. More openings shall be available for an industry engineering job, but as I said above, I’m not sure if I’m cut off for it and I haven’t had an internship in the US yet. Another reason that makes me nervous is that when I enter grad school, my relationship with my partner will be long-distance. His MS will be done next year, and he might or might not go for a PhD himself. So our future is going to be even more uncertain. Should I keep going for the whole PhD program or should I stop after my MS? Maybe I’m overthinking too much before anything’s happened, but if someone could give me any advice or a word of reassurance, it would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance! | b80ed02fe3f04536742c07cd68b6e5d841efd8ad5c2ca5f8be9a6854b608e66d | [

Anyone else get a bit lost after PhD? Hi, I am lucky enough to be a full time research fellow in a university here in Australia. I love the project I am on and my supervisor is wonderful but I find myself missing structured learning. I have been looking at grad cert courses in different fields (I am in criminology).

Starting a PhD and worrying about qualification So, after quite a bunch of paperwork I signed a 3 year contract at a research institute where I will be a PhD candidate (with a group on simulation and AI in radiotherapy, I studied Physics). I'll start in about 2 weeks which gives me some time time to ~~relax and prepare myself~~ make myself panic. My worries go along the line of "I'm in over my head" and "soon they'll notice that I'm a failure". What gives me some confidence is that the selection process had several steps was quite rigorous and they brought up all the things about my CV that I'd rather not talk about (I've studied longer than planned, didn't have the best grades here and there) - and I mean all of them so they know what they get. My future supervisor mentioned why he chose me as his candidate: he mentioned he thinks that I have the right attitude/personality and that I'd be able to work alone and yet have no problem knocking on some doors when help is needed. And yet I'm worried. And I fear for example that I'm too slow when it comes to taking in new concepts. Like I catch on but I need to kind of figure it out myself and if I'm explained something (mostly technical stuff) *verbally* things get much worse. A big part of that is that I have ADHD (which I obviously did not bring up in my application process) and I tend to loose focus when listening. It's just for a couple of seconds but when the subject is technical this can be enough to shake me off. Any thoughts on my situation? Can you relate to my situation? | dec5913274bc98e36171844655fee11ccff057a712b2ad3a06b6d81c310f8f54 | [

I am thinking about starting to send reviews of papers and personal investigations to academic newspapers as a carrer launching My dear academic redditers, I am currently in a Master of International Politics, and I am passing through some blockings thinking what I can do after the Master, but in the meantime I had this idea: Since I have several different interests within international politics and it is difficult for me to specialize in just one field, what do you think I start sending the reviews I normally do of scientific papers and even sending my own investigations and papers about varied subjects related to Politics and Society? Since I don't miss a thing in doing so, do you think it is possible to start launching a career in this more "individualistic" way? Can I publish papers while such a newbie in academia and which journals are the best for me to publish on? Some of my courses made me make some prototypes of scientific papers, and I am thinking about upgrading them a bit and then trying to publish it. | f254e2c9ddc7e168189bd0df3d97e9bc6ab6a354430f127265fffc7fa2e177ed | [

Paper from my undergrad got accepted to a conference. I'm now a grad student at a another school. Is it appropriate to ask my former advisor for funding support? Mainly the title. I am the first author on the paper, and my advisor is also on an author. There are two components to the cost: registration fee (couple hundred) and an international flight/lodging. The conference states that at least one author must register. Not sure if I should just eat the costs myself or ask for support on part of the cost? Some insight would be much appreciated, thank you in advance! | f0cccc93efd865eb82159d4c30bc3308c87a686551e9a1f8f19a0909dcf79016 | [

Academic workers strike part II: Would you still support the strike if it led to a substantial reduction in academic worker positions? I saw on the previous post that there is overwhelming support for the strike. I am a supporter, but the one thing has given me pause is concerns from PIs that there would be layoffs and reductions in the number of personnel. This might ultimately be good for the field (to reduce the number of workers) but it certainly comes at a cost. So, follow-up hypothetical: **Would you still support the UC academic workers' demands if it led to high (say 25-50%) rates of layoffs for current graduate students, postdocs, and other academic workers, and commensurate reductions in the number of available academic worker positions going forward?** | 1617645536ca1286d20045bf7d5e9741ef3840066090d2d10853abe404989da7 | [

Academic workers strike part II: Would you still support the strike if it led to a substantial reduction in academic worker positions? I saw on the previous post that there is overwhelming support for the strike. I am a supporter, but the one thing has given me pause is concerns from PIs that there would be layoffs and reductions in the number of personnel. This might ultimately be good for the field (to reduce the number of workers) but it certainly comes at a cost. So, follow-up hypothetical: **Would you still support the UC academic workers' demands if it led to high (say 25-50%) rates of layoffs for current graduate students, postdocs, and other academic workers, and commensurate reductions in the number of available academic worker positions going forward?** | 1617645536ca1286d20045bf7d5e9741ef3840066090d2d10853abe404989da7 | [

Academic workers strike part II: Would you still support the strike if it led to a substantial reduction in academic worker positions? I saw on the previous post that there is overwhelming support for the strike. I am a supporter, but the one thing has given me pause is concerns from PIs that there would be layoffs and reductions in the number of personnel. This might ultimately be good for the field (to reduce the number of workers) but it certainly comes at a cost. So, follow-up hypothetical: **Would you still support the UC academic workers' demands if it led to high (say 25-50%) rates of layoffs for current graduate students, postdocs, and other academic workers, and commensurate reductions in the number of available academic worker positions going forward?** | 1617645536ca1286d20045bf7d5e9741ef3840066090d2d10853abe404989da7 | [
