Oh yeah I definitely will, it's just a case of deciding if I want to accept an offer in the US or UK

Dilemma :psyduck:

The good thing is that sometimes when you are forced to make a decision quickly, you rely on your instincts.  Time to decide can be good, but it can also lead to a lot of thinking in circles that only leaves you more confused.



Thanks for the varying perspectives on the whole work/grad school balance thing.  I get the impression that a "manageable schedule" varies a lot depending on the program.  I think it'd probably be a good idea to get in touch with my adviser on the issue.

Last exam ever tomorrow and studying for it sucks but it's ok because it's the last one ever!

Also, because I am awesome, in my one other real course this semester (I'm also doing an independent research project worth a bunch of credits), I got 100% on the first big assignment and 98% on the second (both of which were hour and a half long presentations in front of the class), so even though I ended up slacking off a bunch and missing class and small assignments because of Shitty Circumstances, I absolutely definitely have an 'A' in this course, which makes up for the fact that I'll probably do terribly on my exam tomorrow.

october1983:
Oh shit guys I officially got an offer of funding from Cambridge, making it a three-way contest between Cambridge, UCL and Stanford. What the fuck where do I even begin to pikc that one apart?

This is easily the best and yet most ridiculously hard decision I have ever had to make.

Barmymoo:
Yeah you should ask him.
