Final year PhD student from Miskatonic University. My research area is in anthropology.

I'm currently conducting studies on prehistoric culture and and social dynamics.

never hear of that university before. I think you're just trolling in this thread and not a real phd. Just my opinion smile.gif

wrong place to ask i guess. Anything related to tertiary level education is mentally tiring.

No what i mean is like... Example:

Engineering/phycis reated and chemistry need use brain know how to interpret the chart or whatever and solve this and that.

But in psycho whatever field u only need collect data and then do some simple analysis on the data like count how many ppl and then present which doesnt really require u to use brain. ANy phd course like this?

ya i know hard because u need to waste 5 yrs to get that phd instead of making money out there thats why many people opt to get money early.

I understand not easy but just interested the ones that dont require to use brain. Like just hard working but no need think so much

No im not trolling. Just want to understand more because I dont c it so difficult to enter masters course and stuff. My coursemates who graduated just look for any supervisor and they are more than willing to accept since they are desperate for students. There are not so many phd compare to undergrads because students are not interested in doing post grad. If they want do you think its difficult for them to enter? They dont even need to sit for entrance exam or anything like entering bachelor course. Just look for a supervisor and u get to enter post grad course.

I know you're not insulting anyone, but the idea that postgrad study is easy, is insulting. that's why i feel insulted.

No what i mean was post grad study is definitely difficult thats why im asking those that doesnt require brain so much. Yes just like the one woodenus said. The ones that only need tedious work.

Some fields are easy, they're just expensive and boring and tedious, but difficult? there's nothing "difficult" in this world if you have good lecturers and good books, and you can do your own research. The only problem is the cost and the time.

Thats the kind of course in asking about smile.gif
