Hi guys.
When in doubt, come to the forum. Whether I agree with you or not, at least i get honest answers!
I have two very good offers on the table. Really unsure which one to choose. Any suggestions?
Option A has a potential supervisor who is really keen on my research proposal (in fact I think they are keener than me) and is very knowledgeable in the area of research. Only difficulty with this one is the amount of time they need me to undertake research training. Commuting such a long way at least twice a week will cost a fortune.
Option b - requires the same training but spread over two years rather than squeezing it in one. The school has many many recognised experts in the field but the potential supervisor came across as rather disinterested by the whole idea (although they did give positive feedback after).
So, is it the excellent, keen supervisor and lots of commuting or the not so keen supervisor but lots of expert support and less travelling??
I really am torn on this one. Any advice would be welcome.
Cheers
