A very informative video for those wanting to pursue a PhD in US and thanks a lot for helping them. Based on my experience I will provide different point of view on 2 areas. I did my PhD from a US university 13 years ago, so things might have changed. It is pretty common to be admitted directly into a PhD program from Bachelors even without significant research background if you come from top colleges like IITs. This is probably due to track record of past students coming from those colleges to do PhD. Secondly, it is almost impossible to get admission to do a 2nd PhD in the same area. Many University admission websites clearly spell this out. The examples you provided all got their 2nd PhD in a different subject.

Sir, I have been following your videos for a long time but I never had the courage or rather I never felt I was worthy enough to comment cause I do respect you and your knowledge, sir I am in a very confusing situation I am currently doing my Bachelor's in Technology and I'm in the 3rd year I have a very deep interest to dig dipper into intese fields which eventually excites me for doing research! I am absolutely focused and motivated for a Research position I am also working on couple of research papers already and will continue to work in future. I am not a kind of Student that seeks marks as a reflection of excellence I believe in knowledge and skills that's why I never do study for marks maybe that's the reason for my average GPA but sir I have a strong skill set for doing PhD and that thing excites me that rejection that not getting result failure and still trying again and again for the ultimate goal this journey excites me! In your videos I've somehow felt a stream of optimism for my PhD. I want to do Direct PhD after my Bachelor's sir.! Is it possible for me? Cause I know what I am capable of and I'm not in that economical position that I can afford a MS or rather I may not require cause I have already Analysed myself what I am good at it's just I need someone to talk to. I don't know sir whom should I contact. I felt that Sir you might be someone who can provide some sort of knowledge towards this issue! I will be highly obliged if you reply sir! Thank you so much.

Topic: What are the options to stay in usa after exhausting j1/postdoc candidates

[@satyam19899]

Respected Sir, Thank you for enlightening us with your much need wisdom. Requesting you to please consider the following. Thank You. 1. Does the gap years after masters impact one's PhD admissions? 2. Maximum how many years of gap years are considered ok. 3. What all and how much should one know about research, one's research field before approaching a professor. Should one be already ready with the topic beforehand or a vague idea will suffice? 4. What kind of discussion (questions) can we expect from the professor in the first interaction? 5. What basic or field-specific questions can we ask the professor to know that he is the write one and is interested? 6. When is the right time (before application) for approaching the professor? 7. What are some of the basic criteria for selecting a professor for PhD? 8. If after discussion we found that the professor is not interested in what we actually want but wants us to do it his way, should we agree or disagree? How should we convey our dissent? 9. If one has a discussion with a professor but the things didn't work out, will this impact our acceptance?

Hi Sir, I am from pharmacology subject background. Usually students require 4 to 6 years for PhD. That means late joining for an actual job and hence less salary than those people who joined jobs once they got their master degrees only. That means the PhD holders will get increment in salary till his retirement. So, could you please tell the benefits of PhD once the person get retired from job (after 60 years old)?
