[quote=Anonymous]I did a PhD late 30s to early 40s and am now early 50s. I am very glad I did it but as others have noted, it was brutal. I would have happily dropped out if I could, but I had to finish in order for it to be over. All that would be true at any age though. There's no reason not to do it in your 50s. As one person advised me when I thought I'd be potentially too old for my program, "In 5 years you'll be 5 years older. You can be 5 years older with a PhD... or not." [/quote]
