Long before I finished my MSc program I have been a consultant advisor for PhD students for years. I used 70% of my lecturers as guinea pigs in this regard till they all got their doctorates and some even became Professors. Here are a few things I have learnt 👇🏽#AcademicsInView
From an advisor’s perspective having sat on a few academic panels for PhD presentations, it is easy to identify a problem solver from someone who just needed the title and cert for bragging rights or better pay. This is alsoone of the criteria for the award and why most drop out.
The very bests of students ask questions and the very best of PhD students have a strong desire to learn what advisors have to teach based on experience. While those that enrolled for the wrong reasons are forever preoccupied with showing off what they know and can do.
