If you’re thinking about grad school in the U.S., especially in STEM, here are 3 things I wish I knew earlier:
☑️Not all programs are created equal, even if the degree sounds the same
☑️Funding matters more than prestige (especially for long-term freedom)
☑️Your network will shape your opportunities just as much as your GPA
I learned this the hard way… but you don’t have to.
