Another of Musk’s lies that keeps being propagated
“ In 1995, he was accepted to a PhD program in materials science at Stanford University.[64][65] However, Musk decided to join the Internet boom, dropping out two days after being accepted and applied for a job at Netscape”

- loveparade 3y agoMaybe read my comment again? There is no lie. I said accepted, not attended. And if you've ever tried to get into a PhD program at Stanford you'd know that isn't easy unless you have, you know, at least a little bit of knowledge of the field. So the parent claiming that Elon Musk doesn't even know basic Physics is blatantly wrong.
- kiidev 3y agoSorry I misread that as “got a Material Science phd”
- wonnage 3y agoGreat so now we're treating getting accepted to a PhD as though you actually completed one. Virtually every STEM graduate from colleges like Stanford is eligible for a graduate program somewhere, it's not that big of a deal
- xcv123 3y agoElon Musk has a degree in physics. So that addresses the original point. He knows basic physics.
