[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone about to graduate who hasn't already secured a full-time job (i.e. most) should just start studying for the GRE and plan on going to grad school in hopes that the market is better by the time you finish.

There are still plenty of 2024 and earlier grads who have yet to land their first "real" job.[/quote]

Grad school apps are over for this cycle; many funded programs were cut this cycle (phd and funded masters); top law and med school are still good investments but one cannot just apply on a whim to these without years of planning. Unfunded masters that cost 85k per year are usually not a good investment, though some are much easier to get accepted to if not top programs. 
Funded masters and the worthwhile unfunded ones are all top-level programs with admission rates below 30% before the program cuts came. Funded phD at top programs(that lead to jobs in industry or open doors in academia) already had admission rates between 3 and 20%. Even the top funded programs admitted fewer this cycle. Admissions will be even harder next yr. [/quote]
