so you love it. any one else!

sad but don't lose hope. Guess what even some lecturers who are my teachers they won't reply me, obviously not for phd query but for small module queries.

on the contrary, I agree that most professors are very busy and secondly they received many emails daily. I always send emails to lecturers and not to prof and mostly i received rep even negative response but with good advice and encouraging comments.

well i like birds. mostly different chickens. of late i have two ausralian small pairs of parrots (love birs)back at home and they are very beautiful and viewing them in the cage is so relaxing. when i came here in uk i forgot every thing. few days back my wife told me one female bird died. Alas! can't tell u what were my feelings about that one. these birds are like children to me. when i was kid the first toy my mom gave me was a small real chick.

As one of the student post his story that even being a better student he didn't get a phd offer and an internal student won the studentship. now this happens only at departmental level. I tell u this happens in my country even from a small clerk job to a higher post! even seats for ministry can be distributed like this

when I asked about the funding and scholarship they told me forgot this thing u won't get funding.Another inside story is this that many sponsors now attracting students from china to capture their market they want them. other then this u are not eligible for mrc, bbsrc etc as they are only for uk/eu students.

In this forum, many students are complaining that their supervisors are not taking interest and they are alone. one phd student is telling me that my supervisor always eying me like a hawk!
commit a mistake and I will catch you.

he will shout at you ask you to repeat the exp again but as he is watching u so u cannot hide any thing from him and before him u will be confused as he always sit in the lab etc etc all the negative points one can give for a supervisor this fellow has given it to me!

I forgot to tell u that I have applied in genetics. one student told me that this supervisor is technically very good and he knows pros and cons of the techniques but he is hawk. He always keep an eye on you and if u are doing wrong he will immediately come for help but one mistake washed all the good work u have done.

After interview, I went with other senior phd students of the lab to find out their experience! Just like all phd senior students first thing i have told by them is phd is very difficult and u have to work hard etc.

As I mentioned in my previous threads that I am confused and applied to many universities etc.and couldn't find an appropriate option.Just recently, I went for my first PhD interview and guess what, my supervisor offered me the PhD post.

Still I have to find funding this is a big big problem!

Hello and warm wishes and best of luck to all dear friends who are either doing PhD or still in a hunt. I think hunting is much easy job than finding a PhD vacancy. In this thread I will throw some light on the inside story of PhD hunting. All friends are welcome to take part.
Don't lose hope is the moral of story!

Exactly, that is what I was thinking. sylvester sweetheart!

Hi! I am type of guy who wants to know every thing. I am interested in cancer genetics specifically leukaemia, DNA recombinant technology, stem cell research and don't know what to choose for PhD? I have asked many times from heart but no response. Can any one help me and suggest me which area has more potential for research and if anyone can suggest a particular title for research please?
regards to all.

What is this nonsense here? Is it a PhD student forum or marriage/courtship counseling forum?
I am really surprised with this sort of question in this forum from a PhD student.
It's your life so do what ever you want to do but not at the expense of other's life. Please make sure don't discuss about religion here as this may be offensive to someone?
Hope you take this criticism in positive note!

hi madam. can you elaborate your research specification. I mean in which area of stem cells and particularly in which topic you are interested in for PhD?
regards
