  2. This stats exam is worth 100% of my mark. Let's hope I don't make a wee error in the model at the start that trickles all the way thru this paper. Lol #GradSchool

  3. Even though I’ll be done my MBA in a few weeks and I plan on going for a PhD in the next few years, this morning I woke up with the idea “do I need a different bachelors degree before going to a PhD?”

    I…I have a problem.

  9. My initial college plan was to add to my experience in the trades with a degree in #architecture or #engineering.

    After pivoting to #academia my interest in building and #design resurfaces — as when I helped repurpose furniture storage into usable #workSpace during #gradSchool.

  20. RE: ecoevo.social/@ml/115723236071

    Thanks to everyone who boosted this so there could be more participation. The results point at one possible reason why I haven't been getting much participation when I try to get folks contributing to efforts to disseminate grad school info from their schools.

    The replies to this were interesting, too! #AcademicChatter #GradSchool

  21. @Bumblefish I'm 60 and looking for a PhD. Since I came from a family with no one to pass on the "tricks" of academia, I could still use advice, esp when it comes to different academic systems in different countries.

    I think one of the problems about being an older student is that people assume you know things already and you have trouble getting mentoring. #GradSchool #AcademicChatter #Ageism

  22. On old Twitter, there used to be a pretty vocal and thriving community of academics in various disciplines, as well as people who were learning from them and current grad students when it comes to applying for grad school & prep programs.

    Things seem more silent here (with the exception of EECS and physics, perhaps).

    Unscientific poll: How many of y'all grad school seekers are here?

  23. This can be a great strategy to retool for your future--especially if you live in a state like New Mexico that takes educating a large proportion of #FirstGen college attendees as a serious priority, with in-state tuition almost A THIRD OF this article's stated average--which can often be reduced TO ZERO through state grants & financial assistance specifically aimed at helping these populations.

    At these states' flagship institutions--like The University of New Mexico--the realities the article mentions of juggling work ,school, and home life are mitigated through widespread availability of classes online--but still taught by the same faculty you'd have on campus--and timed to fit your schedule. And through a campus culture and a faculty that honors the struggles you make, to make a better future.

    Whether you're a new aspiring #undergraduate or an experienced professional with ANY technical degree contemplating a return to #GradSchool--like countless Soldiers I've mentored in the four decades since my OWN military career began--accredited programs like UNM Organization, Information & Learning Sciences (OILS), with degree & certificates from the bachelors to the Ph.D., can equip you with the evidence-based tools & methods at the intersection of recruiting, training, HR, and analytics, to design, lead, and evaluate the workforce readiness programs for your current organization, or charting an entirely new path.

    What are you waiting for...?

  24. The postbac I am mentoring has thus far applied to a 18 PhD programs (a reasonable precaution right now), 13 of which have fees for a total cost of $1,001 (AVG = 77±20, max=105, min=30). I know the numbers because, as part of the position, I committed to paying these fees out of unrestricted funds. It's a good thing, too, because as a 1st gen student, this many applications would be totally unaffordable.

  31. How many former classmates do you still keep in touch with?

    Feel free to answer this from any level of education you wish to as long as you’re no longer a student there.

  32. A little good news for your scrolly-scroll.

    I just turned in my final project for #GradSchool at #PurdueGlobal. Which means I'm all done except for the shouting. I have sufficient points to #graduate with my #MSIT, however the grade lands.

    I also feel like an incredible weight has been lifted off my shoulders that I've been bearing for 2 years! Wow!

  33. It was hot today—almost 37 degrees! Definitely felt it while out and about. Had lunch at one of my favorite spots, then checked out some op shops for a handbag, but they were all too small.

    Had to make a vet appointment for Meesa’s vaccinations next week and double-check her microchip since one of the companies storing that data shut down. Thankfully, we’re not affected.

    Also looked over some of my uni course material in preparation for next week when it officially starts. Picked up lamb, chicken, potato salad, and Greek salad for dinner for the next two nights. Now I’m exhausted and ready to relax.

  34. For those of you with a master's degree, how about sharing the title of your thesis or capstone. (Share the title with NO additional context, including what or where you studied...just the title).

    I'm guessing we'll have a wonderful variety of disciplines and topics.
