I'm on the stage of revising my dissertation and I'm so close to get my degree, but my advisor made me think that I'm not qualified to get this degree, which she contradictorily assured I will get. Due to the horrible design of my graduate program, I didn't get to learn the content that I should and wanted in my field, so right now I have no confidence in my dissertation at all. Part of me want to leave my program without the degree; I don't like academia anyway. But my friends suggested that I hang in there and get that piece of paper. I can't make up my mind. Do you have any thoughts or comments?

I am at the beginning of my dissertation stage and I have hit an obstacle. I am having difficulty recruiting participants for my research study. I am specifically seeking formerly homeless veterans that reside in Southern California. I am desperately seeking any advice to help with my search.

What is the best book you have found/read on writing a dissertation proposal/dissertation? (For example, there is a book called "Surviving Your Dissertation") Or if you know of a good book on conducting/writing academic research in general, that could be helpful also. Thanks!

I am an international grad student in literature. I 'm about to head to my MA, but I've realized that I really love cognitive neuroscience and I'm thinking of making a shift. I wish anyone can help giving an advice. Do you think I have any opportunity whatsoever? Can I finish MA and do it in PhD after fulfilling prerequisite courses? Or do you think that I need to study for an undergrad program which will take longer time? I'm at a miss for any advice. Thanks.
