If you have any degree(s) visit the other poll: What Is Your Education? Ph. D., Master's, Bachelor's, ..?

Option (8) OTHER type of a student might mean that
you're studying in a college to acquire job skills, or for an educational enrichment, and so on, ....

Option (4) means you're are pursuing studies to obtain an Associate's degree
or just to transfer to a 4-year college or university (or both the transfer and the degree).

The poll options are based on the Amercian educational system.
Adapt those poll options to your situation and the educational system in your country
e.g. France, Germany, Russia, .....
For instance in many countries the Bachelor's degree virtually does not exist.

Graduate student in the USA means Postgraduate student in England.

Adult School, Adult Education, ===> google out

Only students are eligible to vote in this poll.

It would be interesting to hear comments from students from other countries,
Europe, Africa, Asia, South America, ....

This poll is only for students and not for people who graduated from a school, college or university in the past.

In graduate school, you will encounter a different kind of peer pressure that you can't ignore (In high school, you lose nothing by not listening).

When your PI is paying all the bills (including your pay check) and they have all the power (including controlling your future as the most significant reference), you have no choice but to listen to them.

Self-acknowledged slave,

hey, you should be happy you're contributing something very valuble to society/mankind. I have the utmost respect for people persuing a phd. (unless its something to do with pure math

)

I'm an undergrad studying engineer or something like that...
