ScotchDave Posted April 4, 2010 Posted April 4, 2010 Hi ladies and gents, I remember a website where you could go and check up on supervisors online, it was anonymous, independent and US centric, I can't remember what it was called and my google-fu seems lacking. Does anyone know the site I mean? Thanks, Dave
kent shakespeare Posted April 4, 2010 Posted April 4, 2010 The only thing that comes to mind is http://www.ratemyprofessors.com but it's more about undergrads noting whose classes are easy than grads rating supervisors.

Shiryatsya Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 I hate to ask, but are you sure it exists? I can't imagine someone would be carrer-ly suicidal enough to post something bad about their grad school advisor online, even anonymously. I mean for most advisors it wouldn't be hard to figure out who posted.
iLikeTrees Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 ScotchDave, I think I know what you're talking about because I remember hearing something about it on NPR a few months ago. If it's what I'm thinking of it wasn't focused on grad school or academia at all, it was actually more for the corporate world. Sadly, I don't remember the website. It is possible that it got shut down because the article I heard on it made it sounds pretty controversial since there was no way to fact-check allegations and (mostly negative) comments employees made.
