You claimed that funding is not the motive, and yet the only difference you talked about between the two degrees is, well, funding. You may need to know more about the two paths. Be up front about your worries of losing steam or interest. If the adviser likes you enough to bet on you, then at least if you really end up leaving, the process will not continue to haunt you. | |
