"what, they have graduate degrees in waitressing in chain restaurants?"

first of all i've only worked 1 chain restaurant...i hate the chain/corporate bullshit so i choose more upscale places to work...2nd of all what does being a server have to do with grad school? A lot of people are servers through college

I am going to the Universiteit van Amsterdam to study International Relations and Law starting in January. I can't wait!! Hopefully I will either get a job with the State Dept afterwards or I will go to law school somewhere.

Worked on a PhD at UMass Amherst for a bit before burning out and fleeing the country. Upon my return, I started attending Washington University in St. Louis part time to finish off my MS.

BS in Civil Engineering at State in May 2003

applied to UNC-Charlotte and NCSU for Masters and chose NCSU just to keep things inexpensive (out of school tuition) and simple. I knew people in Raleigh and just wanted to enjoy my college experience just a little longer, honestly.

MS in Civil Engineering at State in Dec. 2004

12/7/2005 9:26:37 PM

to clarify, i'm currently working towards it, I don't have it yet. I'm working full time while attempting it, so i'm only taking 3-6 hours per semester. Should be done by spring or summer 07

I will be finishing the PhD in electrical eng: systems at Univ. of Michigan next year. A warning to those interested in a doctoral degree... It can be quite a miserable experience, and you will certainly pass the point of diminishing returns wrt your educational gains. Be certain of your motivations before starting, otherwise there is a high risk of burn-out. Of course, you can follow the path that many do by quitting with the MS.

kinda anxious/nervous

should i be?

3/20/2006 5:44:13 PM

^^^seems like you picked those for location and not ranking.

From US News;
Biological Science--General:
UNC--28
Arizona--43
NCSU--71
AZ St--75

Cell Biology: Only ranks top 10.
None of the schools you mentioned are in there.

Try phds.org for plant science.

great... found out today that i got denied from UNCC and UT Austin...

greatest chance?

3/21/2006 10:42:08 AM

i found out today i got into state for industrial design

NC State chemE and finishing my MBA at Upenn/Wharton next month. Filthydelphia in the house!

4/7/2006 4:05:36 PM

I am heading to UF in about 3 weeks.

4/20/2006 1:03:33 AM

i'm getting my mba here at state with a concentration in supply chain management.

i'm pretty pumped about it considering that a couple second years just got jobs making close to six figures and the range for internship pay for first years is between $25 to $53 an hour...not too shabby

scm is the place to be at nc state thanks to handfield, edwards, warsing, bozarth, etc...it's nc state and michigan state as the top 2 in the country for supply chain (according to hiring companies).

http://scm.ncsu.edu and http://scrc.ncsu.edu are some useful resources if interested.
