S.C.

I have three possible referees: Postdoc-1 who'd write a great reference, the Professor who'd write a good enough reference if Postdoc-1 tells him to, and Postdoc-2 from another lab, who's happy with my work but who's a "man of few words", i.e. would write I'm good but not more.
Obviously, I'll go for the professor, but which one of the others? Would it be better to have two independent accounts of me being ok, than two enthusiastic persons from the same place?

Hmm... Didn't even manage to post a message with name and subject in their proper places. Perhaps is not cut out to be a PhD student, after all?

G

SC I hope your joking? Why is everyone on here so judgemental and stuck up!?!

G

Just to clarify: it was me, S.C. who wrote both the message and the first reply. I hope calling myself an idiot doesn't qualify as being judgmental and stuck up?! :)

G

Just go with the ones that would write you the best ones...
PS: Why: Why do you think people are stuck up here???
