Episode 8 - Confessions of a Grad Student Who Misunderstood the Instructions

This one time, when I was in Grade 2, we were given a quiz. On the surface, this quiz seemed really easy (if not, sort of long), but we were told that the first thing we should do is read all the instructions. Being the rambunctious boy I was, I did not. Had I read the instructions all the way through, I would have realized that the last question simply read: "Don't do any of the questions, just put your head down on your desk and sit quietly". I guess what I'm saying is that's basically grad school.  In this episode, Anna and I discuss the confessions of grad students who would have had their grad school experience be a lot less stressful if they had asked the right person or the right questions. If you have a confession you'd like to share, you can use this anonymous link (https://forms.gle/jfGHFwDfSZ67ce7r8) or email us at [email protected].
