A.U.

Thanks for the feedback. I actually have a question for you guys: I am thinking of changing the website to instead of asking to write a post, to basically asking to answer simple questions with "yes" or "no" answers, rating your advisor from 1 to 10 in some qualities and maybe even choosing some adjectives that describe you advisor from checkboxes. Do you think you would be more inclined to rate your advisor? Thanks a lot for all the feedback

It is true that most reviews so far have been very positive, but we are just starting and I am hoping that some grad students will have the courage to tell the truth. If you know someone that had a bad experience, please let them know about this. I am also trying to convince former grad students to write about their former advisors.

I went through a horrible time with my advisor and I was really upset that I didn't find all the truth about him during my visit day. The former grad students were afraid of telling the truth. So, after suffering through an advisor change, I decided to make a website to provide grad students an avenue to post (anonymous) experiences that they have had working/interacting with their grad school advisors. I would like this collection of posts to serve as a reference for prospective grad students to learn much more about prospective advisors qualities - all the stuff that isn’t necessarily apparent from their well manicured CVs. Please help spread the word and also write posts so that prospective students don't go through the same hell I went through. The website is: http://www.advisorsunclassified.com/ Thank you
