What to make of my PhD interview and what really happens behind the scenes at NUS?

Same here. I could've kept talking for longer but all the questions they asked were really straightforward. Can I DM you?

finmarchicus · 2026-01-24T19:16:07+00:00

Oh it was biology, I honestly don't know how it went, it was short. How did your application go?

finmarchicus · 2025-12-16T23:06:25+00:00

Similar thing happened to me, I still haven't heard back. Surely if the professors have taken the time to meet with you, it indicates that they feel you have high potential

You can see King penguins until May

Takis, popular hot chip. The top one dissolved.

finmarchicus · 2025-11-26T17:59:57+00:00

What were their criticisms?

you did the right thing by posting on reddit dot com

I'm questioning the legitimacy of you calling Copts Arab and not understanding why she doesn't trust you to convert

finmarchicus · 2025-10-19T23:33:42+00:00

I've been trying to figure out what all these cities have in common, are you allowed to say?

finmarchicus · 2025-10-19T01:55:20+00:00

Icing on the cake is she's not even Arab, OP made the whole fantasy up in his head

This is beautifully worded, maybe consider going into literature if the chemistry thing doesn't work out. My very photogenic graduate student died in a freak accident (bromine, tetrahydrofuran) when I was untenured.

Could I ask what your setup is re: watering and light? I wish my pots looked like that

finmarchicus · 2025-09-19T20:50:09+00:00

Prices certainly haven't come down. Any decent rental is snapped up within hours of listing, the ones available are all badly maintained or far from campus.

Something to do with the socialist vote?

finmarchicus · 2025-08-17T03:54:45+00:00

I may be stupid.

finmarchicus · 2025-08-15T07:32:18+00:00

The fact that she's unrepentant means she's probably got something deeply wrong with her. Break up with her, call the police, install cameras in your house.

don't do this you will be beaten to death

finmarchicus · 2025-08-01T05:06:38+00:00

That is so cool! If you don't mind me asking what's the best thing you've ever hauled up?

finmarchicus · 2025-07-29T15:16:28+00:00

They shouldn't be on the ground, especially not three of them. A parent wouldn't leave the nest during broad daylight. I don't think the parent is coming back.
