Oct 11 at 0:20 comment added cag51 I agree with Azor. OP has not yet started graduate school, and the options are (a) starting a PhD versus (b) doing a year as a postbacc student and then starting a PhD. Neither option involves starting a PhD and leaving it early, so I’m not sure why you mention this course at all.
Oct 9 at 18:21 comment added Azor Ahai -him- Yes, I do know what it means.
Oct 9 at 18:20 comment added Neurostar Are you not familiar with the terminology? I don't understand what you are missing here. Some will “master out” — in academic lingo, that means a Ph. D. candidate received their Master's degree and decided to leave their program soon after
Oct 9 at 18:18 comment added Azor Ahai -him- I must admit, I'm confused why you brought it up at all. Would you like to clarify?
Oct 9 at 18:17 comment added Neurostar I didn't even say that they mastered out. I said that they shouldn't. I don't see why this warrants so many downvotes.
Oct 9 at 17:11 comment added Azor Ahai -him- Yeah, that part's fine, that's why I didn't comment on it.
Oct 9 at 17:00 comment added Neurostar That wasn't the point. It is about what research they can offer the supervisor.
Oct 9 at 16:32 comment added Azor Ahai -him- I don't think OP mastered out.
