| Summary, etc | "Is graduate school right for you? Should you get a master's or a Ph.D.? How can you choose the best possible school? Since its publication, Getting What You Came For has proved itself a necessity in helping students answer these vital questions and much more. If you are already a graduate student, this book will help you finish in less time, for less money, and with less trouble." "Based on interviews with career counselors, graduate students, and professors, Getting What You Came For is packed with real-life experiences. Updated, and now with a brand-new section on buying and setting up a personal computer, Getting What You Came For has all the advice a student will need not only to survive but to thrive in graduate school, including: instructions on applying to school and for financial aid; how to excel on qualifying exams; how to manage academic politics - including hostile professors; and how to write and defend a top-notch thesis. Most important, it shows you how to land a job when you graduate."--BOOK JACKET. |
