Video Not Working? Fix It Now

I condensed twenty, 20-min interviews into a 10-min video that explains what a PhD is really like to do! I asked about workloads, social life, best parts vs worst, challenges and whether they might do it again. Hopefully this video can be useful to anyone interested in doing a PhD, or just generally who's curious about what the heck a PhD really is!! The guest (stars) do (or did) a big range of PhD subjects: Maths, Physics, Engineering, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biology, Neuroscience, Psychology, English, and Classics (in no particular order) ;) If you have any particular questions about doing a PhD, or how you get into one, feel free to drop me a message and I'll do my best to get back to you :) IG: alexandersneyd Twitter: @alexander_sneyd LinkedIn: Alexander (Sasha) Sneyd Chapters: 00:00 Intro 00:17 Typical day 01:06 Workload per day 01:53 Social life 02:20 What are the other people like? 03:38 What do you like the most? 05:29 What do you like the least? 08:01 Biggest challenge? 08:39 Was the PhD worth it? 10:32 Credits Music cred: Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/sensho/coffee-break License code: VCICVH6SE3U1G3VR
