I’ve seen that exact scene in Atlanta trying to get to Alpharetta from 75 S by 675.

I personally know someone who totaled 4 cars before turning 18. He literally treated the gas as an on/off switch.

So people that bad at driving are out there.

Truth be told, drivers here in the US are TOTALLY untrained for the most part. My oldest is currently in driver’s Ed and it is a joke, in regards to actually how to drive a car. I have spent a lot of time training him as I have a long history taking racing and advanced driving courses. I’ve held SCCA and FIA racing licenses and I have taken some courses that are usually reserved for police officers The only problem is I do not feel that I’m a very good teacher for him. But he has picked up some things, even if he isn’t up for threshold or trail braking.

I get that this is the Internet.

But how about this one time, we all converse as adults.

How does that sound?

An adult response would have been:

“Virtually all European universities require a Masters to attain a PhD.”

This is Lemmy and not Reddit after all.

Someone should have told my wife’s program that.

But I can understand how that would happen.

Today she’s looking to stress cells in a lab to promote a mis-folded protein response that mimics how it happens in the body. At least that’s how far my IT guy understanding goes. She’s found herself running a BSL 3 lab working with nasty micro organisms and that is not her field. It’s just the path her research lead he down.

Where do you need a Masters to attain a PhD? Honest question, I just never heard of it before.

My wife attained her MD/PhD from the University of Chicago/Pritzker and does not have a Masters. She’s on the MD/PhD committee for her university and they do not require anything other than a BS in the field of study.

With that said, it probably isn’t much of a stretch to just get a Masters in the way to a PhD.

Me? I’m depriving some poor village of its idiot. I have a BS and that’s it.
