[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This very much depends on the field. I made $30k on fellowship with full tuition each year of my PhD. That's about what I would have made with just a BS in chemistry. And I certainly didn't finish my PhD making $60k. Job offers were over 6 figures. [/quote] Not to mention, you were likely finally doing the work you actually want to do. A BA/BS in chemistry is known for only giving you "grunt work jobs in a lab". In order to do the real work most desire, you simply need the PHD. Not many major in Chem and think, I want to spend my life making $30K being a grunt in a lab. [/quote]
