Yes, it was a worthwhile read, especially the part about the GRECS exam.
BTW, the title of this thread reminds me of something I recently read:
Quote:
If you are fairly certain but not positive you want to obtain a Ph.D., you should probably still apply to the Ph.D. program. Entering a Ph.D. program is not a prison sentence. Should you enroll in our Ph.D. program and then later decide that independent research is not for you, you may leave the program and receive the M.S. degree if you have fulfilled all of the requirements for that degree.
