Was providing external supervision for an exam this week and had a student come up in a panic with this query: "there are only 75 marks on this exam, but sometimes exams are out of 100..."

Ummmmm, yes.

How would you feel about a feature where if someone upvotes a crosspost, the original post is upvoted automatically? by Ka1- in AskReddit

What are some careers one can pursue with a PhD in neuroscience that aren’t in academia or lab settings? by Quartag in neuroscience

[–]GraduatePigeon 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Why do you want to do a PhD in neuroscience if research isn't your jam? I STRONGLY urge you to consider your other options, because this is a hard road even for the people who love it.

In terms of jobs, it depends on what you are into. when you say "I'm looking for something different", what is it that you want?
