    Masters/PhD - what do you do?

    :cute: Most of what comes out of my mouth has a scarastic bent. Maybe I should fix that before actually teaching . 4VR- where are you thinking about going? What do you want to do with the MBA? Increase salary or are there different reasons?

    Masters/PhD - what do you do?

    Oh come now, if you can't joke about it where's the fun? Self deprecating humor is the best. Who teaches to become rich? I had that chance already.

    The hardest thing for me with the GRE is the space of time since I had utilized that knowledge. I really would have been best taking it right out of high school. It's nothing you haven't already learned, it's just you really do need to review it. My problem is that I didn't review as...

    amen to that. never say never. :wink: Besides, he recovered. As an incentive, if I'm on the winning team this time I'll make cheesecake for everyone. Of course, you'll have to come pick it up. No deliveries to Texas, JHudd.

    I couldn't agree more. I'd give you rep, but apparently I'm repped out on you for a while :)

    Masters/PhD - what do you do?

    Apologies. I couch it in humor but truly the decision to teach is a wonderful one. As djken says, it is something one will value for life. I'll leave your thread alone now.

    It is neither cheap nor petty rationalization to say that a person is more than the sum of their test scores. I hope everyone has had the good fortune to have studied under a teacher that believed that. And if you feel you can do it better, be my guest. . . We'd love to have the problem...

    That's the operative right there. The GRE measures basically math, reading, and ability to write an essay. While my field has pieces of that, none of those are a direct correlation. Can't quantitatively measure creativity. Honestly the results of my GRE worked like this: Top 95% on verbal...

    I make fantastic cheesecake. Though Wolverine doesn't care for it at all, so I haven't in a while. Maybe I'll just have to bake mafia cheescake. What flavor would that be, do you think?

    I will say that being a teacher is less about knowledge and more about presentation and management skills. Most everyone can remember a teacher who was an absolute genius but didn't have the skills to pass on that knowledge to their students. This is not to say that teachers are dumb by any...

    Easy Elective

    Always, always, always a helpful course. Or just read "She Come First." The more you know. . . In other news, if they truly still have Pots and Pans, that is pathetic. That's why my FCS license is coming from Grand View. And you can tell them so.

    Ryan Leaf: HAHA

    If it were truly that simple, there simply wouldn't be addicts. I'm thankful that I don't have to know what being an addict is like, but I do know what it's like to be judged for something you don't have complete control over. Life simply isn't that cut and dried.

    Yes, this is a brilliant strategy that alerts all other players to how much of a mastermind you are and will gain you much respect :notworthy:
