      Again, the advice for grad students on here is so skewed towards America. Funding is better in the US and Canada generally compared to the UK and Ireland. Continental Europe is also better but there are other restrictions (like choice in project).

      And again I and I suspect many others in the midst of doing their PhDs feel kinda foolish for doing grad school when advice like this goes around.

      I feel for the prospective grad students who are lied to about availability of funding. It sucks, because it happens a lot. But I was discouraged heavily from doing a PhD throughout the undergrad by professors and other grad students at my uni in Canada.

      And tbh it felt like shit to hear that. I didn’t want to do anything else, despite the job risks and debt. And while I incurred a lot of debt, Canada’s loan system isn’t so bad, compared to America anyway.

      I couldn't imagine doing anything else either. Loyola offered full funding but only for 3 years (funding app hell after that while starting a dissertation). I took on debt as my son was born in year 1 of grad school. I'm lucky to have a good job and teach extra to pay off debt.

      There is no rigid advice that ever works for everyone, especially across countries. Anyone who wants to to grad school should be passionate about it, know the market reality, and go for it. People like me need to fight so there is a halfway decent field waiting for them.

      Speaking from a UK perspective, I am under no illusions about PhD programmes here, or the job market waiting for me. I still wanna do it, because, like many on here, I couldn't imagine not doing it.

      Discouraging prospective grads instead of just being honest about the situation (funding/job market sucks). This also just...idk, it strikes me heavily to assume that all grad students are a bunch of naive fools?

      Yes as if our entire undergrad career we didn't hear, "what are you going to do with that degree?"

      Yeah. I hated hearing that I couldn’t get a job with a BA in history (which tbh is true) and then also being told not to do a masters and PhD? Like ???
