There was a scholar claiming this a few months back and yeah, sorry, you aren’t disadvantaged because your parents don’t have PhDs. This is a subtweet and the scholar is in the replies to the original tweet on this. https://twitter.com/kataplexis/status/1294539573482131458 …

True. Grad school was just kind of a “oh, well, that makes sense as a thing to do” (lol @ past me) and I just did all of it on my own. First round I applied to places without contacting people, paid too many fees, & got 0 offers. Then learned that grad =/= undergrad application.

Round two was a little better, but still, a lot to learn. Reached out to some old profs for guidance after again 0% success. Decided round 3 was the last round and just did so much research and reaching out to folks.
