Hey Enlightenment,
You're the second person to reply to this thread who's gone through with grad school and... and you haven't liked it. Like you, I don't feel like I quite fit in with everyone. It's nice being with young people but I don't feel the same level of receptiveness to the material as my classmates. To some degree or another they are aiming for careers as economists... I'm not. To that degree, it makes coursework doubly taxing, since the material isn't easy but furthermore, there isn't much motivation on my part to do it.
Classes started today and I felt sick not long after we jumped into the material. It would be much easier if I was motivated... but that's another story. I don't know really what good is coming of this, especially since I feel horrible. Can this be the right thing to do? |
