Praise the glory of google!!! You think about it and its there on the web.
I have been reading this thread and suddenly realized that I am not alone. I just cross 40 have been in the industry for 12+ years and now planning to go back for a PhD. Just got a initial interview call from a very good business school for a PhD in India. I have been debating what to do now. Go-not go, for the interview. How will be the effort of 4+ years of penance pay off in the following years of my career. How will I be looked once I graduate?
I love to hear considerations of people who have found themselves in similar predicament- especially anyone having a Indian context.
I come from serious academic stock, and the allure of a PhD is most enticing even at this age and the current state of the economy....
Too old for a PH.d?
