<p>I just want to know your thoughts. This is just a general question.</p>
<p>Medical? Business? Engineering? or Law?</p>
<p>and why?</p>
<p>Business schools are jokes, engineering not as hard as you think and law school is competitive but its not HARD. If your doing a masters in enginerring odds are you don’t find engineering subjects hard. I’d say medical school, it is the one where even real smart or good people have problems.</p>
<p>MBA is the easiest it is full of people who have been out of school for years and are rusty so no one expects too much of you. Maybe 1 hard courser per semester</p>
<p>Just wondering glenn - why are business schools jokes? And maybe in some MBA programs it is full of people as you described, but not all of them especially the top tier ones</p>
<p>In my opinion, there is no such thing as a “hard” and “easy” type of grad school. If the classes fails to interests you then its going to be a tough and long road. I don’t care if its rocket science or introduction to basket-weaving.</p>
<p>My friend’s uncle went to college studying in one of the engineering departments. He then went to law school and was like… “this stuff is nothing compared to what they make you do in engineering.”</p>
<p>Glennat, I don’t think that is necessarily true. My father went to Michigan business school right after college, and while he did very well, he thought it was very challenging and interesting. I think it really depends on what you make of it, what classes you take, and which subjects really “click” with you.</p>
<p>^He got an MBA right out of undergrad?</p>
<p>Law is lots harder than a Ph.D program.</p>
<p>^Which one? PHD in general studies, at Generic University?</p>
<p>a friend who was a civil engineering major, now in a top law program, says his undergrad was harder. i doubt it gets any easier if it was a phd compared to a b.s.</p>
<p>is med school hard??</p>
<p>i think med school is hard, they face real life issues. other than that its LONGgggggggg</p>
<p>QwertyKey - yes, he did. He applied to Michigan directly out of undergrad, and decided that if he didn’t get in, he would take a few years off to work, but he wanted to go right away. He got in, so that’s what he did.</p>
<p>My guess is that Ph. D. programs, where you are expected to do original research, are much more difficult than any business, law, or medicine degree where you just take classes and learn facts that people before you have discovered.</p>
<p>Law = most likely to get bad grades
Med = most hard?
Engineering = ???
PHD = most study and research
Business = go to las vegas to network</p>
<p>Med school is probably the worst - it’s just years of intensive work.</p>
<p>Since getting a pH.D can take anywhere from 5-8 years usually, I’d say it’s more difficult than 3 years in law school - which just involves going to more lectures/ classes/ passive learning anyway.</p>
<p>ugh i’m going to be going to med school and i am not looking forward to it. :(</p>
<p>med school and architecture grad school</p>
<p>LOL, ph/d programs are apparently grossly easy according to some phd students who i met om campus, they are telling me how they can take like 2-3 courses in a semester so its a joke basically. You can finish a ph.d program in 3-6 years. Menaing the 6 year person is lazy</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’d think that the hard part of a Ph.D. program is not the classes you take, but the thesis you write. You are expected to do original research for a Ph.D. Doing something original is really hard. None of the other graduate degrees has anything close to this.</p>
