PhD කරන්න එපා | Why you shouldn't do a PhD

This video hopes to explain the risks involved in doing a PhD and why it is not meant for everyone. I try my best to explain the difference between a PhD and Bachelors Degree. Here are some common misconceptions about doing a PhD:
1. Higher Qualification after my Bachelors
2. Higher demand in Job Market
3. Higher Qualification means Higher Salary
4. Secure Permanent Residency
5. I had a good GPA in campus
6. It’s only 5 years (comparing it to a Degree)
7. I couldn’t become a Doctor therefore having Dr. in front of my name will make prove my self worth
