<p>If you don’t have some sort of obsessive committment to research, you may not make it through grad school. Also, if you impose silly requirements about which schools would be acceptable to you and how much they would have to pay you, you won’t be happy with the results. Take some time to work in industry and if grad school is right for you then, consider it then.</p>
