[quote=Anonymous]Getting a PhD in anything but business or a hard science (with the expectation that you will work in a research institute like NIH) is fully irrational. Yes, you might be one of the lucky few, but much more likely you will waste years of your life only to never make a living at this. Go do something else. - Someone who started a social sciences PhD and dropped out after the MA stage to get a job I love. Most of my cohort does not have a job (and this is a top 10 program).[/quote]
