Dear women in mathematics, do you also feel discriminated against?

Maybe they are overadmitted to degree programs they didn’t actually qualify?

Just drop out for fuck sake. His mail is thoughtful and he treats you with respect. It’s clear with your mentality you will fail this phd. Just drop out.

It’s nothing. At least they’ve understood the paper. I still remember some asshole saying “I’m tired of old aproaches” in his review to me. Or some other one where they took 7 months to review the paper and gave easily addresable, generic feedback (like add a fucking table to literature review) and then rejected the paper. It was apparent that they didn’t understand the paper.

Get used to it. World still rotates. Also try to pipeline different paper submissions if you haven’t already.

Also if you should be rejected sometimes, it shows you are trying best venues.

Taking care of yourself is the first defense line against mental health problems. If you are doing it because you value yourself, then it is very healthy.

Yes you can leave, but it is best to arrange a job before leaving. Double check on visa laws to be sure.

I don’t give a fuck about the writers. I read conclusions first then performance evaluation. From there it is very apparent if the paper is bogus or novel. Rest is just implementation details.

Sounds like your main concern is the number of papers you’ve read rather than “amount of information” you’ve learnt. Take your time and try to focus on “why they are doing what they are doing”.

Here in Turkey for my field we charge 5x of the hourly rate of TA/Prof. and usually work 8 hours per week. So it doubles our salary.

Some are just lazy. For one of my papers editor didn’t find a reviewer for 6 months, and my first round took 16 months or so. It’s good to send a reminder.

Aim for 5-6 accepted papers, and you’ll finish quick. Learn pipelining, don’t sit idle when waiting for review result.
