I’m currently in the first year of my masters program. At the end of the academic year, I have an option of taking a gap year for any reason.

I feel like I should take a gap year because :

1. I don’t feel ready (but idk if i ever will)
2. I am still conflicted about how i feel about working in the industry so if i do end up taking the year, i will likely spend that time working. I brought this up with a couple of friends/colleagues and they were very supportive of the idea of a gap year if i was going to spend that year doing research but not so much otherwise

My biggest issue with this is that i feel like I’ll be too old by the time i start a PhD program (assuming i do get in). After the gap year + the second year of my masters program, I’d be 26 when I start the PhD. Idk what the average age is for people starting a PhD and idk if that would be too old

I’d appreciate any perspectives on this

I have terrible luck getting interviews to begin with but i received my only first round interview with JPM for an S&T internship

The interview was with an Executive Director at the desk who’s been working with them for over 2 decades.

There were a couple of behavioural questions that threw me off and the interviewer’s reaction made it seem like they did not find the answers convincing enough. After this, i was asked some question about options and i was partially correct but i was wrong about the second part of the question

I also feel like I was yapping instead of being to the point with a few answers and i feel terrible about it. It was also supposed to be 30 minutes but we ended I’m 25 because the interviewer said that’s all the questions they had for me and that doesn’t feel like a good sign

I’m just really disappointed in myself because this feels like my only chance

Hi all,

I’m a student at HEC P. I graduate in 2029 and my university does allow a year off to pursue internships while I’m enrolled.

I’m confused because the description for these roles usually ask that you be enrolled in school for the entire duration of the placement and be graduating in 2028/2029 but not all of them mention you being a student at a UK school

Hello,

Does anyone know what i can do in this case? It was booked via ship rocket. I have raised a ticket with Delhivery but they don’t seem to be of much help. They said they’ll respond within 48 hours but I don’t think they’ll refund me the amount or anything.

What can i do in this situation 😭

Hi all,

I have some unflavoured yeast protein that i want to use up. I’m looking for savoury recipes because i already have dark chocolate flavoured yeast protein, so mixing the unflavoured one with cocoa powder would be boring and i already dislike my protein shake.

Can anyone think of ways to add it to stuff without ruining the taste of the dish?

Thanks

I just received a 30mL spray bottle as a freebie and i was pretty excited to try it out given the reviews.

For context, I have combination-dehydrated skin and also use tret everyday so i assumed I vaguely fall into the category of people this is aimed at.

I’ve used it 4 times now and everytime it’s been such an unpleasant experience that i need to wash it off after an hour or so. I tried it on dry skin as well as damp skin. I’m confident that I’m not using too much product because I’m barely doing 3 sprays.

The product leaves a film on my skin. This film is not greasy, but it’s sticky (it’s sticky to the point where : a) If I touch my skin i feel the sticky layer b) even if I avoid touching my face, if i move around my mouth/face i can feel it on my face, like someone dropped sugar syrup over me and i feel the tackiness that would come with it)

The worst part is that this is not the kind of film that disappears or loses stickiness when it dries down. Even when i kept it on for 2 hours, at the end of the 2 hours my face was still sticky, so this is worse than a lot of greasy sunscreens I’ve tried out which become somewhat tolerable after they dry down.

I don’t know if this product isn’t leaving a sticky film on other people or if people just don’t mind it as much but I’d never buy this
