Are you considering pursuing a PhD? Before you make that decision, watch this video! Drawing from my extensive experience in academia, from unknown universities to MIT and Harvard, I explore why a PhD might not be the best path for everyone. I'll break down when it makes sense to do a PhD, the pitfalls to avoid, and the harsh realities many graduates face. Discover the truth about job prospects, the skills you'll actually develop, and why some PhD holders struggle to find their place in the industry.

I'll also share personal stories and insights, including my own mistakes and what I wish I had known before starting my PhD. Whether you're dreaming of becoming a professor or considering a PhD for career advancement, this video provides valuable guidance to help you make an informed decision.
