Philosophers who assess grad school/PhD applications: do you care whether applicants have publications? Does it weigh strongly in their favour, carry no weight, or even weigh against? (you may wish to distinguish *any* pub from a *good* pub, whatever you take the latter to mean) #philsky

PhD vivas drive me nuts. They are so unevenly done in this country. It comes down to the personality of the examiners as much as the quality of the research. You might get someone looking to put you in your place. And you might get someone who lets problems through unchalleged.

Oh, need to withdraw from my PhD program which was employer funded tomorrow. Which, honestly, is a relief. I will find something that still generates a bit of excitement for me. No fault of the program. It 'fit the criteria' for work funding, which is really not the way to pick your PhD.

When I was failed for my #phd, I wonder why there was no system to check. If someone fails to reach the expected level, surely it should trigger review by a third party? Or some investigating into guidance given should be made? #phdlife #phdchat #phdvoice

Just found a near perfect job which I'd be very suitable for. But it explicitly requires a #PhD. So, despite having the skills and knowledge, I'm intelligible. 10.5 years working towards a PhD, downgraded at the last minute. Really cuts off various futures. #phdlife #phdchat #phdvoice
