Hi Ladies - I know many of us are students so I thought some of you may be able to share your experiences.
I know I want to get my Masters. For what I eventually want to do, I need it. That said my eventual goal (involving private practice) is far off and not even close to being one of my short term goals. Because I knew I wanted to get my Masters it never really occurred to me NOT do it right from my undergrad. I feel that it may be hard for me to go back to school once I get used to working and earning a living.
That said, I may have a contact for a job when I graduate in a year. While it is not my dream job it would be a FANTASTIC first job. Interesting work, good pay good hours benefits etc not to mention that fact that I would like to move out of my parents house in the near-ish future. I am in no rush per say, but it is definitely more on the short term goal side. This has got me thinking about all the other possible alternatives.
So my question to you ladies (and any gentlemen) is what did you do when you finished your undergrad? Did you work for a bit? travel? Continue with more schooling? What were your experiences? I am sure you all have great insights!
