Can I Build a Research Career Without Going to Grad School?
Actually, feel free to keep posting suggestions. I still get email alerts when things are posted here so I check it. I am still unemployed with no real hope in the future. I was able to get my antipsychotic switched from Zyprexa (the most sedating one commonly used) to Abilify (aripiprazole)...- TheEigenvalue

Nine Months Later - Career Guidance Still Needed More Than Ever
Hello, again, everyone. I have had a good five days to think through this now since I got the original replies to my post. I decided to wait awhile for the 'dust to settle' before I would post something inflammatory because my condition makes me view everything in a very paranoid light and what...- TheEigenvalue

Nano-Passion: Thank you very much for taking a look at my thread. Having a loved one with the disorder yourself, you clearly can grasp some of the aspects that are hard to simply define in words or write in the DSM-IV manual. I live in PA now and I recently received a packet about a program to...- TheEigenvalue

Ok. I am still left, however, with the main question un-answered despite everything else (be it good or bad that it was discussed): What type of rewarding jobs could I look into getting? And by rewarding, think of yourselves in the job, considering most of the folks on this forum tend to have a...- TheEigenvalue

So you are all saying that there seems to be nothing "wrong" with the fact that, simply because I inherited a terrible mental illness (and perhaps I didn't quite emphasize how terrible it is, but I am not a complainer - I am lucky to be alive or not serving a life sentence locked up in a state...- TheEigenvalue

God. I am so sorry that this thread has turned out as negative as it has. I had no intention of starting so many people's tempers' up. You can ask any of my friends: I am a considerate, fair, kind, and honest person and I am sure you will not believe me about it, but it is true. Integrity and...- TheEigenvalue

I feel as though I am mis-communicating somehow. I get the perception that the above two posters are assuming I am some sort of "mal-adjusted" bad-kid who wants his cake and wants to eat it too. No. I am simply a regular person who has a very serious medical condition which is preventing me...- TheEigenvalue

Nine Months Later - Career Guidance Still Needed More Than Ever
Hi, everyone. I haven't posted on this site for some time...at least seven months or so. I want to "re-kindle" my discussion that I started here: My Previous Thread The meat and potatoes of the story is that I excelled in Undergraduate School and obtained a B.S. in Mathematics with a minor...- TheEigenvalue

Courses Struggle in Graduate Analysis course despite 'doing the right things'
One good thing I have to report is that my professors have been really accommodating with me in this tough time. They understand that I want to stay until the end of the Semester for the sake of my TA- students, so they have both told me that I don't really need to come to class if I am still...- TheEigenvalue

Math Having to leave grad school in Math- where to go from here?
I can't join the Armed Forces because of my illness. Having a severe mental illness is a nearly automatic 'no-no' for the armed forces.- TheEigenvalue

Math Having to leave grad school in Math- where to go from here?
I am starting to really gravitate towards the investment banking scene. The more I read, the more interest I have in it. Now, every time they mention Wall Street or an investment bank on the news, I listen up and find it fascinating. I agree that it is not technically a 'math' field, but I...- TheEigenvalue

Courses Struggle in Graduate Analysis course despite 'doing the right things'
Here are the first three pages of the Exam in pdf format. Note that I messed up scanning and they need to be rotated to view correctly. Since Adobe Reader only allows you to view 'as is' I couldn't save a copy correctly oriented.- TheEigenvalue

I will get it scanned by this afternoon. I just have to make sure that the professor has the exam posted on his website too (which he probably does) so that I am not releasing copyrighted material or anything.- TheEigenvalue
