[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends entirely on your filed. My kid is getting a science PhD. Thank God she did not choose a field where success hinges on glad-handing and drinking skills. The ability to make fake small talk and butter up those in the Executive Suite. But it sounds like you got the flavor of kids you wanted, so it is all good. [/quote] But they get into those PhD programs by making connections within the field. You don't just apply blindly, you reach out and meet profs and see who has funding, etc. It's networking. You need to have the credentials and the research work to back it up, but you also need to network.[/quote] But that networking is sincere and substantive. Not basted in alcohol and false BS.
