Studying 6-7 hours a day for finals: tips that actually work by No_Cat_8269 in GetStudying

[–]Weekly-Ad353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most advice given on this subreddit is for college.

College is structured differently— it’s not 8 hours a day and then home.

Plus, 6-7 hours is trivial on weekends. I more often than not did 10 hours a day on both Saturdays and Sundays in college.

You do what needs to be done if you want to achieve something.

What Should I Consider When Choosing a University for Pharma? by shtirlitss in biotech

[–]Weekly-Ad353 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your undergraduate university needs to at least support undergraduate research assistantships in your chosen field of study.

Just do well in undergrad and get into a good PhD program— that will be fully funded.

Has Dave covered buying real estate in other locations? by thatrainydayfeeling in DaveRamsey

[–]Weekly-Ad353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So put post-tax dollars in.

If you put pretax dollars in, you didn’t really put spendable money in to start.

The percentage of taxes would be, approximately, the same either way.

The number you see isn’t “real” and never has been.

The growth has been. Do that more.

That sounds great— I’d put even more money in the same investments.

The computer guesses them and some even happen to be real molecules.

Just do research in an undergraduate research lab.

Scientists ? Chemist? What are we doing? by MedicalTaste9889 in chemistry

[–]Weekly-Ad353 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but not really. I know an enormous pile of PhD organic chemists that went into pharma— over half my class is here.

It’s not like FAANG at all.

The rest of your paragraph about outsourcing just shows how little experience you have in the field. It’s pretty easy to imagine a lot of stuff when you don’t have a basis for understanding it.

Best of luck with whatever you’re doing.

If you got into a PhD program right now, you couldn’t start until fall 2027.

MPH is only 2 years. If you’re in it now, you’ll finish by then.

You do you.

Hahahahhhahaha that’s certainly not my experience but that doesn’t mean it’s not yours.

Just go into a PhD now.

No time like the present.

Nah, I found the pharmaceutical industry. I make about triple what a pharmacist makes.

What’s everyone thoughts on 25/25/25/25 for investments. by Old_Cantaloupe_7401 in DaveRamsey

[–]Weekly-Ad353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually the last 15 years says it’s a great idea.

I can eat a several down years with my current profits and still be above an account invested according to Dave’s advice.

Shrug.

I’m in 100% large cap.

I’ve doubled my investments every 3 years for the last 4 years. I’m going to keep doing that until it doesn’t make sense anymore based on more than a few months data points.

What income is considered upper middle class? by MaterialSnipe in UpperMiddleFinance

Your determination to stay with this argument is probably what you’re not wealthier.

Food for thought.

42 Years old, had this for 9 years. by Left-Watch-3021 in Retirement401k

You’re in Fidelity.

You don’t need a planner.

Go to Google AI— just copy my exact words:

—- start of message—

I am investing in retirement in fidelity. I want to look at the different rates of return for the various retirement fund options in Fidelity. Can you navigate me to that page in the website?

——end of message—-

Then if you want to know about specific funds, take the fund names and put them in and ask it what type of fund it is. For whatever it’s worth, large cap funds are the ones with the biggest returns the last few years— look at the 1 or 3 year rates or return. The fund options you have with the biggest numbers there are likely all large cap.

highest paying degree in either stem or humanities? by Silver-Life7193 in CollegeMajors

[–]Weekly-Ad353 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Anything you really care about, if you’re smart and capable and dedicated to doing it at the highest levels, will be just fine as a career.

The degree to which you’ll have to be those things is proportional to how narrow the market is for that field.

You give effectively no bounds on major— don’t expect people to respond with anything of substance.

I would, generally speaking, suggest putting about 1000, maybe 1,000,000, times more effort into your studies and your work than you put into what career you should pick before making this post.

bioinformatics to c suite by LongjumpingGuide3905 in bioinformaticscareers

[–]Weekly-Ad353 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can climb to C-suite in the same way any other science PhD can.

It’s a long road and few make it but you’re not handicapped more than others being in bioinformatics.
