After bachelors, you feel, you know everything. After masters, you feel, you know nothing. After PhD, you feel, noone knows anything.
- giantg2 5y agoI must have skipped the "know everything phase". I've always felt like I know nothing. I have also discovered that no one knows anything (only have an MS, no PhD). Maybe it's just due to the nature tech - even if I know it know it in one tech right now, the tech changes and I dont know it in the other tech.
- soumyadeb 5y agoWell, that's your humility. Most undergrads I have come across (me included) feel top of the world after the bachelors and landing a tech job. The better the job offer, more the feeling of you know everything
- giantg2 5y agoI felt that in a different way after starting my first real job. I thought I was making good money and had a great career ahead. Now 10 years later and a MS, I realize I was underpaid, and likely still am, with a job and not a career.
- kwhitefoot 5y agoWhat on earth did they study that left them with the impression that they knew everything after a bachelor's degree? I and most people I know were left with the impression that we had merely scratched the surface. I studied applied physics in the 70s if that is relevant.
