>>11786738No. I'm not giving you a testimony, i am just reminding you all of what common sense is. And if you have a little of that, you'd be checking on who is your advisor before accepting a phd with a guy you don't know.
>That might not work for everyone and based on the field could be radically different.Tell me how the fuck checking on your advisor's background might not work no matter the field. It's all publish or perish. If your advisor is not publishing, that means his Phd students are not publishing, that means you will do a shitty PhD because you'll eventually have to justify why you didn't have enough publications to your name.
Listening to other phds in this retarded thread complaining about phds could possibly make the OP not take a PhD based on very subjective and retarded testimonies. Again, there is nothing subjective about doing your own research on a fucking advisor.
If you don't do things the right way, your complains are irrelevant.
